Politicians are taken aback by the news. - Why is the Sylt-Grölerin facing expulsion from the university?
A 24-year-old woman from Sylt, who sang "foreigners out," has lost her job and is said to be leaving the university. The president of the Berlin Technical University, Geraldine Rauch (41), was caught liking anti-Semitic posts online but still chooses to stay in her position.
A large group of anti-Semites, who have been spreading Anti-Semitic rhetoric at German universities for months and supporting Hamas terrorists, will not be kicked out.
The German politician Kubicki wishes he could experience the public outrage caused by the Sylt video, stating that a dangerous left-wing Anti-Semitism has appeared at German universities, threatening the lives and safety of Jewish students.
Kubicki uses words like "unbearable, cheap, and petty pseudo-morality" to describe the situation. According to him, the Sylt student is facing expulsion, while Rauch, who apparently showed her pro-Israel views during this incident, wants to keep her job.
The head of the Young Union, Johannes Winkel (32), calls the Sylt video "disgusting." He also mentions Germany's double moral standards and says, "while lives are being ruined due to a drunk video, Anti-Semitism at German universities remains unpunished and even promoted."
Winkel sadly remarks, "if the woman in the video had cheered for Israel's destruction, she might have received a scholarship instead of being expelled."
Rauch only spoke up after disappearing for 36 hours and admitted to liking anti-Semitic posts on Twitter. One of these included a picture of Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu with swastikas. The comparison of Israel to the Nazi regime is widely considered anti-Semitic.
Rauch acknowledged that the posts had "anti-Semitic content." The University Presidium also issued a statement, saying that Rauch had "liked a tweet that was clearly anti-Semitic – a completely unacceptable mistake."
The statement suggests that Rauch intends to stay in her position as university president.
The other members of the presidium strongly criticized Rauch, calling her actions an "unacceptable error." In relation to the accusations against Rauch, they mentioned the contempt for people, glorification of war, and anti-Semitic ideology that the university had previously been associated with.
The Berlin CDU general secretary, Ottilie Klein (40), criticizes Rauch's response, saying that she spoke out "only after massive pressure" and "doesn't seem to understand the severity of her actions." She emphasizes that whoever fuels Anti-Semitism through statements and posts as a public figure holds moral responsibility for further escalations.
From the beginning, Rauch has used her position in the university for political activism. She aimed to "strongly encircle" the university and positioned herself not only against right-wing extremism but "clearly against the right" in general. The FAZ reveals that she has defamed unpopular professors as "accomplices of right-wing extremism."
