Berlin: More than 2000 Muslims took out a rally in Hamburg, Germany on Saturday. During this time he demanded the implementation of Islamist caliphate and Sharia law. The crowd participating in the rally also raised slogans of Allahu Akbar. Many videos of this demonstration are also being shared on social media. The majority of the population in Germany is Christian, while Muslims are a minority. According to reports, most of these Muslims are those who came to Germany seeking asylum from African and Asian countries. However, after getting citizenship, their attitude changed and now they are trying to suppress the native population.
Who organized the demonstration?
According to reports, the demonstration was organized by a group called Muslim Interactive. German security and intelligence agencies believe Muslim Interactive has ties to Hizb ur-Tahrir, an organization banned in 2003 for promoting the murder of Jews. According to Tagesspiegel, Muslim Interactive is classified as an extremist group by the Hamburg Office for the Protection of the Constitution.
Why are the protesters demanding Islamic Caliphate?
Founded in 2020, the group is led by Joe Eded Boateng, also known as Rahim Boateng. According to BILD, Hamburg recently banned Boateng from working as a teacher due to his links to Islamism. A post about the incident on the group’s Instagram read, “A colonial system that can only be overcome by a rightly guided caliphate – a caliphate that will once again unite Jews, Christians and Muslims.” Will allow you to live peacefully.”
The group’s anger against Israel
The group also posted “Israel’s Top 5 Lies about the Genocide” on the social media platform X, in which they argued that Israel’s claim of acting in self-defense and its historical claims to the land are false. Muslim Interactive claimed that around 5000 people had participated in the demonstration. The organization has been active in Germany over the past year, organizing several rallies, particularly against Israel’s ongoing war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
