Berlin Investigations: Radical Israel-Hasser and Clan Crime in focus

Neukölln, Deutschland - In Berlin, intensive investigations have been running for a year of a radical Israel hater scene, which is connected to a variety of actors. The officials of the State Criminal Police Office (LKA) identified a clientele of refugees, foreign students, clan members and political criminals. Much of the activists have its roots, especially in the Barbakh clan, whose members openly sympathize with terrorist organizations and regularly take part in violent protests. The Demonstration on the "Nakba" commemoration on the Südstern is a concise example of the extremist views in this scene, which has gained influence in recent months, as bz-berlin.de reports.

Around 25 to 30 people have established themselves as leading heads of this radical movement. The best-known ringleaders include a designer of Kurdish origin, a photographer, foreign students and especially members of the Barbakh clan. Mohammed Barbakh, 17 years old in particular, plays a central role in the scene and has already been arrested by the police more than 50 times. In total, over 140 members of the Barbakh clan live in Berlin, of which 40 to 50 members are the focus of the police.

clan crime and connections to Hamas

The Barbakh family, originally from Chan Junis in the Gaza Strip, is suspected of maintaining close connections to the militant organization of Hamas. An incident that got the investigation rolled was a personal role at Berlin Central Station, in which a 30-year-old Palestinian was checked with an arrest warrant for violating the Living Act. During a search, the officials also found over 50,000 euros in cash, which raised questions about the origin of the money and the civil servants on the trail of suspected money laundering cases how FOCUS.de describes in detail.

The Barbakh family is listed in more than 360 police processes, with 80% of the cases a reference to the Middle East conflict. It is intensively investigated against relatives for sedition, the use of prohibited symbols and attacks on police officers. The family, which is active in Baden-Württemberg, is not only known to the police due to assault and drug trafficking, but also reports on possible financial support for Hamas, which are still unclear.

public reactions and the role of social media

Despite the ongoing investigations and repression, the Israel haters are unimpressed and openly confess to the support of terrorists. At Easter, posters with faces imprisoned Palestinian terrorists in Neukölln were glued. Social media play a crucial role in this because self -proclaimed "journalists" stream protests in real time on platforms such as TikTok, YouTube or Instagram and thus spread the radical propaganda.

particularly highlighted is Hema Barbakh, who is a sought -after personality with over 1.5 million followok and collects donations for "humanitarian purposes". This public relations work promotes the spread of extremist ideologies within youth and exacerbates the political debate about dealing with clan crime and extremism in Germany. As a result, the demands for bans on entry for extremists and violent offenders become louder and illustrate the need for action in politics.
