In Belgium people do have an expectation of privacy in public, what they did is straight up illegal under Belgian law. If they want to film or photograph a person (not as an accidental passerby, but as the subject as was the case here), then they need to get consent from that person. If they want to share that footage online, then they need consent for that as well.

And some other excerpts:
Demonization: The portrayal of Israel as a criminal collective directly connects to the antisemitic interpretation of the accusation of systematic child murder.

The image portrays violence against “the Jews” as just “resistance” and a necessary reaction to a supposedly absolute injustice.

Questioning the German government their continued support for the Palestinian genocide is officially antisemitic, see „NIE WIEDER… FÜR WEN?“ on page 60 of the brochure. https://www.verfassungsschutz.de/SharedDocs/publikationen/DE/allgemein/2026-05-antisemitische-codes-und-chiffren.pdf?__blob=publicationFile&v=9

The writers of the brochure also try really really hard to equate criticism of Israel with anti Jewish racism. That page 60 meme is about Germany and Israel, and their explanation tries to make it about Jews. It’s jarring.

He identified $385,000 worth of transactions that might be “unreasonable director-related transactions … in favour of a director, a close associate of the director or to a person on behalf of [either]”.

The company has debts with everyone (customers, government, talking head, sponsors), definitely a fraudulent* bankruptcy. The director’s name (George Zacharia) is unfortunately too common, I wish that I could have found some cringe social media that was definitely his. Damien Costas and his many bankruptcies are easy to find back. I wouldn’t be surprised if Zacharia was a strawman for Costas.

*Edit to add: that disappeared money wasn’t splurged on anything fancy, it was siphoned out.
