It's very mean of Germany that foreigners who trash University property and threaten their staff violently face deportation.

How can they do such a suppression of free speech?

What are you referring to here?

About the handful "poor and innocent protestors" which the Berlin government tried to deport for taking part in a violent occupation of the Berlin Free University, which then tried to claim this was a retaliation for "simple demonstrating against Israel."

Here are some pictures of the damages caused inside the university

Awesome. And it worked because it got the media to focus on the genocide even if it took further escalation and even if it was negative press. This is an entirely righteous and historically common way to raise attention that hey our government and university is complicit in the murder of 10s of thousands of kids and civilians. This is no different than the white rose resistance. Good for these students. They are heros who are risking their education, rights, and careers to give a voice to those who may not have one.

Oh so threatening innocent people with violence and thrashing public universities is righteous?

Completely disgusting. Cheering criminal activities is also a criminal offence in Germany

Also the Weiße Rose never attacked innocent people. So don't dirt their name by comparing them to these people

While I don't tend to idolize America be any means, at least we have of freedom of speech. You focus on a protest in the context of a native ethnic group getting wiped off the face of the earth. There is mass starvation and civilian targeting. Its terrible that one person was injured and it's terrible this is what it takes for people to pay attention, but compared to genocide? You need to take a look at your priorities.
