A demonstrator with the sign "From the river to the sea, we demand equality" was also detained at a demonstration in Berlin last week.
The historic comparision cannot hold for this.
Also the historic comparision struggles with the fact, that Germany lost its territories in two wars it started as a sovereign nation. The palestinians lost their territory, as the British colonial power receeded and let Israel forcefully displace them and continue to displace them.
And that will be discussed in a court of law, in a country that is very carefully watching the freedom of opinion and repression of minorities.

I live in Germany, but not in any neighbourhood that you describe, so yes I cannot relate. I was however talking about our courts.
