[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag) That's why today I removed the German flag from in front of the Bundestag.

[0:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=4) Israel is still committing genocide in Palestine.

[0:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=9) Every day, people in Gaza are shot, homes are bombed and rescue workers are attacked.

[0:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=18) The population is being starved and driven out by ever tightening yellow lines.

[0:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=25) In the West Bank, ethnic cleansing continues to escalate.

[0:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=30) Entire villages are destroyed, whole olive groves uprooted.

[0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=36) This contemptible violence must never become normal.

[0:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=42) This is genocide. And yet Germany clings to its state treasury.

[0:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=49) Behind me in the Bundestag, politicians from five parties sit together and every day they choose to continue enabling the genocide in Palestine.

[1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=63) But no one should be surprised, that Germany is once again on the wrong side of history.

[1:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=70) Germany has never been on the right side of history.

[1:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=75) That’s why today I removed the German flag in front of the Bundestag, because it stands for nothing but violence, imperialism, and colonialism.

[1:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=86) And I replaced it with the Palestinian flag.

[1:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/fPlywV7toSdq/en/palestinian-flag-replaces-german-flag-outside-the-bundestag?t=90) For a free Palestine and a world free of imperialism.
