Alleged context (feel free to correct if you have info in comments):

After Israeli Maccabi hooligans terrorized Amsterdam, the Dutch government demonized the pro-Palestine movement and banned protests. People came to protest anyways (peacefully)

The police arrested peaceful protesters and put them in a bus. They were driven to a parking lot. The police released them from the bus in a parking lot near a station.

While the protesters were walking to the station the police started hitting them. Allegedly for not moving fast enough.

Russia is not a free and democratic country.

In this case the city of Amsterdam only made pro palestine protest illegal for a few days to protect public order after incidents of rioting. Protesting would have been fine just a few days later.

Russia is nothing like that.

So when the USA resumes conducting illegal detentions, extraordinary renditions, and mass expulsions in a few months, I guess that's just the consequence of living in a free and democratic country, and we should just accept it.

The temporary ban on demonstrating against the governments complicity in genocide. Out of fear of extreme violence which never manifestaties.

#JustDemocracyThings.

There were several violent riots in the preceding days? First around the football match with lots of injured and then arson in a tram a day later.

Was any of those things done during an organized planned peaceful protest?
