n Flensburg, a shop owner has caused outrage beyond the city limits with a single sign. Hans Velten Reisch, owner of a small speciality shop in Duburger Straße, placed a note in his shop window on Wednesday.

It read: "Jews are banned from here! Nothing personal. No antisemitism. Just can't stand you."

The police were alerted to the sign on Wednesday evening and spokesperson Philipp Renoncourt told the local media outlet förde.news the sign was removed "to prevent danger" and avoid an escalation or possible threat to public order.

However, the message has not disappeared completely. According to local reporters, the sign may no be longer hanging in the shop window, but is still clearly visible on a wall opposite the entrance door inside the shop.

"I'm not a Nazi," says Flensburg shop owner

Hans Velten Reisch, who is 60 years old, has been running the shop in Duburger Straße since 2016. His product range focuses on technical literature, especially original workshop manuals for cars and motorbikes.

Reisch himself rejects accusations that he is an extremist. In an interview with förde.news he described himself as "a little to the left, a little to the right - but not radical."

"I'm not a Nazi," he emphasised. At the same time, he criticised the use of language today. In his opinion, terms such as "racism" are used too lightly.

"Today, you're already a Nazi if you order a gypsy schnitzel," said Reisch.

He also expressed his frustration with politics and society at length in the interview with the local newspaper. His criticism ranged from bureaucracy and media coverage to the Middle East conflict, issues of freedom of expression and personal disappointments in his social environment.

He was particularly critical of the country's current policy towards Israel, which he described as "hypocrisy" on the part of the West.

Reisch explained that he had decided to stop serving customers who, in his opinion, support the war in Israel.

"I don't need people like that here - neither in business nor in private," he said. At the same time, he emphasised that he has nothing against Jews who clearly distance themselves from the war.

"They can have a coffee too," he said.

Where next will this overt antisemitism appear?
