Sparked by rising antisemitism, the proposal, backed by Hesse’s state government, aims to fill gaps in existing hate speech laws. Supporters argue it’s vital given Germany’s historical burden, while critics warn it risks violating free speech and could be unconstitutional by singling out Israel. The bill faces a tough road — past Bundesrat initiatives often stall — and may ultimately be decided by the constitutional court, setting the stage for a defining debate over speech, history, and national responsibility.
