Case- Case number
- 15 B 1300/25
- Country
- Germany: Federal Republic of Germany (1949-today)
- Case Description
Held that a blanket ban on disputing Israel's right to exist is unlawful per se, as such statements alone do not fulfil a criminal offence and are generally protected by freedom of expression; distinguished from slogans like "Yalla, yalla, Intifada" (lawfully banned) and left open the criminal-law status of "From the river to the sea".
