Ramallah – 7 March 2025
Across the Occupied Palestinian Territory, the Palestinian people continue to increasingly grapple with Israel’s complete disregard of its obligations under international law to protect Palestinians and their chances of building a future that fulfills their rights to a dignified life and to self-determination.
Germany, which brandishes the « Staatsräson » (raison d’état) as the absolute justification for its support of Israel, hijacks the memory of the Holocaust to cover up the genocide in Gaza. This posture is accompanied by a fierce McCarthyism against any dissenting voice, equating criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism. This AURDIP report examines the mechanisms of this drift, its consequences and the rare attempts at resistance.

Al Mezan unequivocally condemns Israel’s ongoing crimes, perpetrated in furtherance of the continuing genocide in Gaza, particularly in Rafah. We call on the international community to take urgent and concrete measures to end the genocide, stop the systematic destruction of Rafah, and ensure the safe return of displaced residents. Immediate steps must be taken to hold those responsible accountable, including full support for the International Criminal Court and other accountability mechanisms, the imposition of a two-way arms embargo on Israel, and targeted sanctions against individuals and entities complicit in these crimes. The international community must also review and suspend bilateral agreements and diplomatic ties that enable Israel’s violations, work toward dismantling the unlawful occupation, and uphold the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination.
