Bahamas is a political magazine .

history

The Bahamas was founded in Hamburg in 1992 by Group K , a once Maoist group, which was then formed by the minority faction of the dissolved Communist League (KB) . In a dispute, Knut Mellenthin , a spokesman for the majority, is said to have advised the minority to “ emigrate to the Bahamas ” because of their pessimistic drop-out attitude. The KB minority / group K took up this ironically in the naming of their publication organ. A member and co-editor at that time was the journalist Jürgen Elsässer , who in 1990 wrote the programmatic article Why the Left must be anti-German in the forerunner, the KB newspaper Arbeiterkampf .

With reference to the critical theory , especially to Theodor W. Adorno , a further distancing from traditional positions of the left was accomplished and anti-Semitism now moved into focus.

In 2006, the State Office for the Protection of the Constitution of North Rhine-Westphalia mentioned the Bahamas in the publication Die Antideutschen - not a passing phenomenon as a scene sheet of the left-wing extremist spectrum of anti-Germans . Rudolf van Hüllen classifies the Bahamas within the left-wing radical scene as the "informal [s] ideological [s] central organ of the anti-Germans.

Unconditional solidarity with Israel was declared the highest principle.
