His parents were communist muslims from Bosnia, he's a lib secular muslim born and raised in Germany surprised about Israel behavior against brown people.
What's up with the children of comunists? Are they all destined to be libs?
From the comments:
It's a complicated, shitty situation
Listen we'd love for the apartheid ethnostate to stop doing a racism but it's just so dang complicated
If they didn't brutalize everyone with a not white enough complexion? Terrorists, terrorists everywhere, suicide bombings on every street corner, because they hate Israel's freedom.
It's extremely simple lmao. How is "they're white supremacists, like the US and UK." complex?!
Look, the Muslims and Jews have been fighting for billions of years. It’s in their genes. There’s just nothing we can do
lol the fucking mods locked the post
protesting a fascist apartheid state is now hate speech.
Sort by controversial and see all the zionists saying it was his fault for leaving his backpacking itinerary open.
LOL yeah if the story was "I had to go through secondary screening and they asked me about my job and who I know in the country for 45 minutes" that would make sense, not racist threats and 5 days in jail followed by deportation to the wrong country...
Didn't take long to find a "but china is worse"
:stalin-gun-1: :stalin-gun-2:
It's like that "see how many links in Wikipedia until Hitler". The reddit version is how many comments until sinophobia
I got pinned for a random security check the one time I've been in China and they apologized the whole time and got me a cup of tea. Then they let me go after like 20 minutes. I'm white though so I don't know how it compares.
The worst that cop in China do is argue with you for a good amount of time, while you could loss your life in the US, lmao
I've known plenty of Americans who have been to China. None of them went through anything like this. Sure, they have someone accompany them, but other than that, they're free to do whatever as long as it's legal.
Of course. If you wanna observe someone for whatever reason, you dont assault them. US cops cannot ever do that, they exist as enforcers and respond brutally in all things.
It really does show the power that soft power has. People overlook it a lot but the media of a culture works wonders to change perceptions of it. All three of those countries have great PR that make people think they're Democratic and good. They know nothing of the governments but like Kpop, Roman architecture, and see videos of Youtubers going to Singapore with cool buildings.
Poor guy.
Stories like this is why liberal rules world order :us-foreign-policy: propaganda needs to be countered at every turn.
Jesus that read only got more horrifying as it went on. When the interrogator got a call from her family and switched into chipper chatty mode? Straight up banality of evil shit. And the guards just joking about the deportation and detainment. And then the edit where OP says please stop insulting me in the DMs.
Israel is a democracy and a developed nation like Italy, South Korea, or Singapore.
Lol, not wrong there
Lol, most libs even know that Singapore isn't a democracy. Like Putin gets way more electoral pushback than the PAP.
He tried to post it in the Germany subreddit but it got deleted for being "irrelevant".
I checked the sub and half of it it's just general world news completely irrelevant to Germany... How weird that this one specific post was deemed unfit to be in there.
Edit: I tried to cross-post it again, it got manually deleted by a moderator, this time without an automod message. How peculiar!
every [location] sub is just the most reactionary people from that location, who view everything from the perspective of their particular nationalism
Christ, what a fucking shithole. Hope I never have to go there for business, or any reason
viscous racism
having a thick, sticky consistency between solid and liquid; having a high viscosity.
:thicc-trump:
She was from Poland and told me she had to take the bus to Jerusalem (300km) to the north. And now she is standing after an interrogation alone in Eilat. I felt miserable for her. But I knew the real party will follow now for us...
To short it a bit here. They said I can't enter Israel for "national security reasons". They controlled our bags 8 times for bombs. They controlled our bodies several times. We were treated like human scum. No physical harassment. But scum. 2 well-trained 1,85 security guys escorted us to Eilat Airport. We waited in this airport waiting room with normal visitors in "freedom". But they said, "If you make one problem. It was the last time you make a problem in your life."
Deportation flight to Tel Aviv. 2 "officers" came to the plane with us. It was so unreal. Like in a movie. Nobody noticed it just the security guys us both and the airplane staff. Then normal tourists from the EU, US, and Israel having vacation came in. I was looking out of the airplane windows. Wow, Eilat. Maybe this is Mitzpe Ramon? Nice Desert. Wow, Tel Aviv. Nice city. What will happen next to us? We still don't know. All tourists out. On the airplane, the field was a "transport car" for us. You see the picture below. Micky was the driver. He was different. He said I'm sorry guys. It's my job. Do we don't need handcuffs or? No no Micky everything is okay. We do not need it.
He drove to the deportation center. Made jokes like "I'm your tour guide and this is Tel Aviv. Welcome guys." We laughed. He made the best out of it. Unfortunately, Micky was not responsible for us later on and our guard was more interested in looking at films and playing on his phone than to bring us water at 28 degrees. He has the might. You feel powerless. Weak. Scared. Dirty. And you still do not know what will happen next. He brings food/water. Sir, where are we going? Silence.
5 Days in Jail. We had food and water but it was hot and we always begged for smoking a cigarette outside. At this time we were very calm and into ourselves. What happened here to us? Unbelievable. Dubrovnik has a saying "FREEDOM IS NOT FOR SALE, NOT EVEN FOR ALL THE RICHES OF THE WORLD." I felt that. Are people experiencing this often here? I started to think a lot about that.
We had a shower and asked for towels but "there were no towels" for us so 5 days. The beds were stinking and had never been cleaned since day one. Filthy 5 days. Scared. Nobody is answering what will happens next? Silence. One day the German embassy called. Are you okay? Yes yes. Please help us they just put us into Jail without a reason. We have a Visa how is that possible? "We can't do much. Sorry. But you will be coming home soon. This happens often here. Don't worry nothing physical will happen to you. They will deport you back to Germany"
On the 4th day, they knocked and said we have a flight for you tomorrow to Poland. POLAND? No, I want to Germany. For Germany, you have to wait 1 more week. No no Poland is perfect! We like Poland! Again with the transport car to Tel Aviv Airport. And because 7 times were not enough. Bag Bomb control again. Body control again. Some small questions. I was angry and did not want to answer so he stopped asking further. We are boarding first than the tourists. Again like in a movie. Nobody noticed. One old smiling guy with this curls and a black hat said "Did you enjoy your vacation?" I did not want to destroy his smile. I laughed and said "Yes yes. It was wonderful." And I was looking out of the window. It felt so unreal. Even when I write it. But I swear everything holy for me. I'm telling you the truth. I don't need attention via Reddit. I just want to be a little puzzle on this earth, that things like that get to people's eyes and ears and that things like that never happen again. To everyone!
We cam to Poland (Poznan) - 4 degrees. The Border Patrol was waiting on us with MP5 wain us. They were cool Polish guys. But one sentence he had to say laughing "The first time that we have a "German" deportation. Gave me my passport." I mean at least I was free. European Union. What a relief.
5 days no shower. Just a light jacket on me. Then we waited on our bags. Do you mean the Bags they controlled 8 times on bombs? I mean they take out every sock and check it for "bombs". Sorry, Sir. There weren't bags onboard for you. "They forgot it. Call Ben Gurion. Maybe they have it." Wasted. No Bags. Do you know the moment when you have to laugh out of desperation? I felt like shit. Really. After that, I was at my doctor's and just wanted that he write me off for 3 weeks of illness. I wanted to be alone in my home myself. It changed a lot in me. Freedom is priceless. I mean it was just normal 5 days in a deportation center. It's not a real Jail for hard guys like in Russia, Mexico, or the USA. But you know. If you made your crime you expect things like that and you sit for a kind of reason there. But if somebody takes your freedom because of your ethnicity, religion, looks your being. This changes you. It fucks your mind. I swear. This is something I will never forget in my life. I value my life in Germany much more than ever before. This country is heaven and I love it and defend it for several reasons.
We took a hostel night in Poland and grabbed a bus to Berlin for a flight back home (600km). When I reached Berlin and was in Germany. Damn. I wanted to kiss the ground. I fucking love this country. This beauty. My home. Freedom. Democracy. Human Rights. I was nearly crying. And I said to myself I will forever in my life defend the rights of human beings!
I was fucking angry. I said to myself: "I will tell my story." I will fight you with words! I wrote the Israeli embassy in Germany about my case and I wanted to hear an "excuse". I wrote 20 pages. I just received after 4 months a one-pager with the text "Life ban for Israel. Security Reasons. Why exactly we can't say. Confidential." If you wanna try again to enter. Let us know."
I said okay I don't need them. I will go to the newspaper. Enough is enough. It's always a big thing in German Newspapers when German Citizens are arrested and deported to Turkey (mostly Kurds). I wrote a lot of local Newspapers and some bigger ones. I even contacted some journalists via email.
Mostly no answer. But some wrote me back. "Not interested." But one guy wrote "I'm sorry. This would not be a good idea because of our historical obligation and this could be understood wrong."
Understood wrong? Man, I'm a German citizen who got arrested over there. I was a student. What they are doing with other people over there? What's your purpose in journalism? I'm writing this here after some years (2018). Personally, after I saw that with the newspapers I do not want to risk and face problems. If a potential employer will google my name and see this newspaper article. It will not bring me a benefit in pursuing my career. That's for sure!
I researched a lot and found a ton of similar stories. This is for sure not Disneyland. What I wrote here was real and no show. I could write a lot more but this would need more than 1 page. I had the feeling to share that story. The intention is not to share hate. I just want to ask you for one thing. Please stop that over there guys. This is not normal. If you want it. You can do it. I'm convinced.
Best Regards from a German-Bosnian Guy.
Edit:
I added some photos because a lot of people insulted me via PM as a liar and that I have faked my passport because of "Entery /Entry" wrong spelled and wrong "Hebrew" words/letters. Damn, I do not even know that language. Now I have added much more photos. I have still more, but they are personal to me. @ Everyone please guys. Don't insult me per PM. I will say it again. The purpose is not to spread hate. Do not insult people under here. We are travelers. That's not our spirit. Our spirit is love. Positivity and openness to everyone. If you start to hate and insult, you aren't better.
