Oh, as an afterthought, I want to be clear, I think neoliberalism is as dangerous an ideology as communism or fascism. We had our own taste of it with Gerhard Schröder and he has done to the left in Germany the same damage as you attribute to Obama (maybe you are right, hard to tell from Germany)
I believe the reason Germany is criminalizing protest of Israel/Gaza is because the tendency towards fascism comes via neoliberalism.
Germany is not criminalizing protest of Israel/Gaza. This is a right wing fake narrative. We have a law against fascism and when they use fascist symbols it is outlawed but there are protests everywhere without interference. Here in Hannover at the Leibniz University there is a months-long protest
