While a few years ago the German government claimed that no arms exports to war and crisis zones outside the EU and NATO would be authorised, this no longer has any meaning in times of war in Ukraine and Gaza.

Since 2022, Germany has provided 28 billion euros worth of military equipment for Ukraine, while arms exports to Israel have increased tenfold since 7 October. The German defence industry is expanding, Rheinmetall AG's share price is constantly reaching new highs and the left-liberal press is discovering its fascination with war equipment. Military escalation is the means of choice in defence of so-called Western values.
The deaths of thousands of people are trivialised as inevitable collateral damage and imperialist interests are completely ignored.

After resistance to the "turning point" announced by Chancellor Scholz remained low, thousands of people now regularly take to the streets to protest against the military escalation in the Middle East.

In the media and by politicians, these protests are defamed as anti-Semitic and there is strong repression against Palestine solidarity.

Unconditional support for Israel is the raison d'être of the German state. Human rights violations and breaches of international law play no role in German policy.

Moshe Zuckermann will discuss how and why criticism of the Israeli government is taboo in Germany and what effects this has on the German left.

Elbit Systems is an Israeli drone manufacturer that also has sites in Germany. Elbit is the world's 24th largest defence manufacturer and military service provider in 2022.
Protests against the war profiteer have been taking place for years, particularly in the UK. As part of the Shut Elbit Down campaign, protests have now also been organised in Germany and there have been actions at Elbit's production site in Ulm. An activist from the campaign will talk about her activities and the role of the German and Israeli arms industry.

As Rheinmetall Disarm, we have consistently opposed armament, militarisation and all German arms exports and blocked arms companies even before the announcement of the turnaround. In view of our antimilitarist camp, which will take place in Kiel from 3 to 8 September, we would like to talk about our position on the Gaza war and consider how we can overcome divisions and achieve a coming together of left-wing antimilitarist forces.

We will discuss with:
Moshe Zuckermann (left-wing activist and sociologist from Tel Aviv) - online
Lena Schmailzl (co-initiator of the Shut Elbit Down campaign)
Lukas Barlian (Alliance Rheinmetall Disar
