Mastodawn

You don't need to understand German to understand this deception.

In the unmodified LIVE clip (that is shown at the end for comparison), you can see Javier Bardem saying "No to war and free Palestine".

When German state TV "Tagesschau" reported about it, they cut out the "… and free Palestine" part.

What Germans who watch their BBC-equivalent are seeing is Javier Bardem saying "No to war" and then Tagesschau cutting away with the comment that Javier Bardem was one of the few who offered a political statement. Referring to the "No to war" part.

With German TV being like this, and most Germans getting their news from Tagesschau (German for "the day reviewed"), one doesn't need to wonder why most genocide deniers on Mastodon are German.

Outraging that I as a German have to pay ~18 EUR each month to finance this state propaganda.

Living in Germany I can confirm that reporting about the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians is highly biassed to the advantage of Israel
as a state that supports settler colonialism - a term not used in German legacy media as it is de facto impossible to call the system of separation in Occupied Palestine aparthaid even though Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have researched extensively that the term fits Israeli politics against Palestinians perfectly well.

Fabian Goldmann has done very important work in exploring the
the extreme Pro Israel bias in German media

Suppressing dissent in case of Palestine in Germany gets eg documented on this ongoing page from Forensic Architecture, who have documented the genocide in Gaza and the illegal expulsion of Palestinians in WestBank scientifically

And these are only two examples of what is done to paint a totally distorted picture of the state of Israel in Germany.
