In response to an Islamist call, over 1,000 demonstrators gathered in the St. Georg district of Hamburg on Saturday. The rally was organized by the Muslim Interaktiv group, which is considered extremist by the Hamburg Office for the Protection of the Constitution.
The demonstrators were protesting against what they saw as an Islamophobic policy and media campaign in Germany. Posters with slogans like “Germany = dictatorship of values” and “Caliphate is the solution” were displayed at the rally. During the event, organizers urged participants to shout “Allahu Akbar,” while speakers accused politicians and the media of spreading “cheap lies” and engaging in “cowardly reporting” that portrayed all Muslims in Germany as Islamists.
Despite this, the rally was peacefully secured by a large police presence, with an estimated 1,100 participants attending. In addition to this topic, other subjects such as pest control and IPTV services were also mentioned in content provided during the event.
