| book description |

A leading Germanâ€“Jewish peace activist dissects Germanyâ€™s authoritarian crackdown after Gaza. Since October 2023, the Frankfurt-based Jewish composer and activist Wieland Hoban has traveled the globe rallying opposition to the Gaza genocide. Now, in an urgent collection of writings at once blistering and revelatory, Hoban unravels the cultural neuroses and political cynicism that have made Germany an outlier in its support for Israeli crimes. From German gentiles confidently charging Israeli Jewish expats with antisemitism, to the German stateâ€™s decades-long project to stifle free speech under the guise of combating â€œantisemitism,â€ to German officials mobilising their historical responsibility for one genocide to justify participating in anotherâ€”Hoban guides us through the grotesqueries of German â€œmemory cultureâ€ and shows their lethal consequences. As the chair of a Germanâ€“Jewish peace group whose bank accounts were repeatedly frozen and whose members have been arrested on Gaza solidarity protests, Hoban is uniquely placed to expose the oddities and outrages of Germanyâ€™s authoritarian turn. He also warns that what begins in Germany doesnâ€™t stay there. From sabotaging international support for a Gaza ceasefire, to deporting foreign nationals on political grounds, to spearheading censorship laws across the EU, Hobanâ€™s diagnosis of German pathologies demonstrates where the ideological weaponisation of â€œantisemitismâ€ can lead.
