15 April 2026, 08:15 Konrad Berkowicz has condemned Israel as “the new Third Reich” over its airstrikes on Gaza and Lebanon
A far-right politician displayed an Israeli flag bearing a swastika instead of the Star of David on the floor of the Polish parliament on Tuesday, sparking outrage at home and abroad.
Konrad Berkowicz, a member of the Confederation bloc, said he was protesting against Israel’s reported use of white phosphorus munitions in Gaza and Lebanon.
“Israel is the new Third Reich, and its flag should look exactly like Germany’s flag from 1933 to 1945,” the MP wrote on X after the incident. He has previously labeled Israel a “terrorist state” over its wars in the Middle East.
According to TVP, Speaker Wlodzimierz Czarzasty said he would seek to fine Berkowicz for breaking parliamentary rules and notify legal authorities about suspected crimes, including publicly insulting the flag of a foreign state and promoting Nazism.
Izrael to nowa Trzecia Rzesza i jego flaga powinna wyglądać dokładnie tak.
