I'd like to say I'm shocked by this, but I am not! I just watched a talk and interview given by Francesca Albanese, the UN rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories, in Germany. The political situation in Germany is now similar to that in the US. She couldn't give her talk at Berlin University and had to find a small venue.
