Pro-Palestine protestors really seem to get the pigs into a rage. They must believe that they'll be able to get away with it.
And so far, it looks like they have. Right now, in the U.S., the Trumplicans (and Leon) are revoking the visas of international students who took part in protests to support Palestine. I'd guess for every couple we hear about there are a hundred more we don't.
It seems strange the countries all over the world are using similar violence against anyone protesting the Zionist genocide.
All that shit is happening in Germany, too.
From the article
Police intervened when the protesters allegedly violated the restriction, triggering a confrontation, Bild reported. As tensions escalated, demonstrators reportedly threw bottles and clashed with officers, leaving at least one officer injured. Berlin police confirmed the incident on their official X account, stating that 28 people were detained and insisting that the officers had no choice but to use force against protesters who they claim were acting violently.
Just so you know, "Bild" is a german right wing magazine. Imagine fox news as a newspaper. They are well known to report false information to smear left wing initiatives and further hurt victims if they are left wing. Since the victims of police brutality here are apparently pro-palastine, Bild cannot be trusted to report accurately
And from the paragraph you cited: "Berlin police confirmed the incident on their official X account...insisting that the officers had no choice but to use force against protesters who they claim were acting violently."
They say shit like this even when there are hours of video demonstrating otherwise. I'm sure afterward they'll investigate themselves and find no wrongdoing.
"The restriction" being: speaking any language other than german or english at a protest.
I think this should be spelled out. That's how nazi this is
In Germany, "Pro-palestine" protestors usually try to hijack left-wing demonstrations for unrelated topics. Saw that many times myself, and get super sad about it all the time.
It is really tough if you are out demonstrating fascism, and all of a sudden people with antisemitic symbols stand behind you, waving their watermelons and god knows what
Nazis being Nazis.
No matter if you say all germans are nazis, or all police are nazis, both is wrong.
Police in full riot gear beating up unarmed women is a pretty strong indicator though. Also German police has Nazi scandals every year. This goes from whatsapp chats, where they share "nazi jokes" and pedophilia, over stealing weapons and ammunition for nazi terror groups, to protecting nazi terror cells committing attacks on politicans to being involved in planning violent coups and mass murder of political enemies
Oh and of course there is a bunch of racist murders by the police, with one infamous police station still in operation, where a black men was set on fire by cops and a Chinese women was raped and murdered by the step-son of the former leader of the station and son of a policewomen there, who both likely helped cover up the crime.
In Germany, if you have a police interaction with a person that is deemed to be "non German" or that is deemed to be "lefty", the interaction will likely be racist or otherwise abusive.
EDIT: Oh and there was a recent case, where the police deported a non-binary German person to Hungary in June 2024 despite a court injunction that forbid the deportation. However the constitutional court ruling the action of the police to be unlawful recently doesn't change the fact that she is indeed abused and the police who deported her there did not face any consequences yet.
Fascism is epidemic inside the German police and Racism and Sexism are systematically protected by the administrative and political leaders.
Hey OP, get better news sources, DailyTelegraph.co.nz is Russian junk news.
Thank you, good to know. I was looking for English articles after reading it in German articles. IIRC i also saw it on TRT but avoided it because TRT is a Turkish outlet under the influence of Erdogan.
Police repression has been escalating in Germany and particularly in Berlin over the past years and both German and international media are not addressing the issue with the attention it deserves. Germany is taking more and more steps to become an authoritarian democracy. If the trend isn't stopped, it will look like Hungary or Turkiye in some years.
Watch germans scramble to take the side of cops, as usual. I've heard boots are a speciality this season.
Nah, our police has a well known issue with brutality, every leftist already experienced that. But our conservatives are always talking it down as "Einzelfälle" but everyone else knows its a systemic issue.

thanks, i sent him a manual message anyway @remon@ani.social
Just as a side note, when I'm at a demonstration where people are throwing bottles at cops, I'm leaving. Demonstration over. New! Improved! Riot beginning.
If bottles were thrown it was in reaction to the police hitting the demonstratos with batons and punching peaceful participants holding a banner, you can see the videos in the article. As to what triggered the punching? A chant in Arabic condemning Israel. Your comment makes it sound like things turned into a "riot" for no reason and that the repression was justified.
Usually bottles are thrown after the cops start attacking and by this point you might not be able to leave easily anymore as you are probably surrounded.
What if you demonstrate against the growing authoritarian and fascist regimes? The ones that have power over the police?
My opinion is that in such cases bottles are ok, but they should contain a flammable liquid and an accompanying flame.
