Loving the irony of that fully armored Nazi police fuck pushing and punching an unarmed old woman on her face, front-and-center of this video.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 59 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No those are palestinian flags

"Ah shit this is the wrong spot! The Palestine meetup is over there!"

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 9 points 3 weeks ago

We will maybe break up with usa but never with israel. Fucking shameful what germany of all places is endorsing.

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 22 points 3 weeks ago

As a state, it's easier to support Israel than to actually take some fucking responsibility.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 31 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

Were they actually breaking any law or did the government just decide it wanted to give them a beating?

[–] mumblerfish@lemmy.world 101 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Maybe a hot take but if you are breaking the law, you should still not receive a beating.

The German state is incredibly repressive against solidarity for Palestine.

[–] lemmydividebyzero@reddthat.com 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

Is it? We had many peaceful demonstrations.

When it got problematic was when people on demonstrations shoutet that they wanted a kalifat (don't know how to write the word) and "from the river ...", because Hamas and other people interpret it differently.

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 17 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It's not only happening on protests. People get exmatriculated or their visas revoked if they go to the wrong protest camp or post the wrong things on facebook. You can also get your citizenship denied if you have the wrong opinions on Iserael, since the IHRA is official stance of the state.

Tells me your brainwashed. You know the internet is free right, there's a boy younger than 10 being chased by 2 or 3 police men for having a Palestinian flag while he runs for his life and then is beaten. This "kalifat" bs you're talking about is just straight up lies

No those are government and media lies to justify the violence. Germany supplies 30% of the weapons for the genocide in Palestine. They are next to the US the most repressive country.

German police have beaten up protesters holding Palestinian flags without any cause. Many examples have been posted in this community. Example from 4 months ago https://lemmy.world/post/21657306 (Direct link to the video: https://imgur.com/SWM4K8H)

I don't know the context of the video.

But yes, covering your face on a demonstration is illegal and can lead to up to 1 year in jail.

[–] punksnotdead@slrpnk.net 13 points 3 weeks ago

Up to 1 year in jail and 20 punches to the face apparently...

[–] DaveyRocket@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

How are you going to build a fascist database of enemies if the protestors cover their face?

"They are being investigated for particularly serious breach of the peace, liberation of prisoners, resisting law enforcement officers and using symbols of unconstitutional and terrorist organizations."[...]

"Seven officers were injured, but were able to continue their duties. Journalists were also attacked. 28 people were reportedly arrested." [...] "Participants also used umbrellas to block the view of a pro-Palestinian block. Some police officers were attacked with bottles, kicks and punches. Officers then “repeatedly used physical force”, it was reported."

I would like to provide some context to this video. It was filmed in Berlin, at an Pro-Palestine / anti-Israel demonstration.

Multiple journalists have been attacked during the demonstration. Levi Salomon, a journalist active in the JFDA e.V (Jewish Forum for Democracy and against Antisemitism) has been attacked by a woman who poured hot tea over him. Multiple policemen attempted to arrest this woman, but she was protected by other demonstrants. This video has been filmed directly after this incident. It shows heavy police violence that cannot be apologized, however I find this context very important.

According to the German Journalist Union (duj), more than 100 attacks on journalists during pro-palestine demonstrations have been reported in 2024. There are also police investigations running about an "enemy list" with journalists names and their private addresses.

You can read this source here, unfortunately it is in German.

I gave my best to report this in a neutral way, but if you are angry, you can of course down vote.

Authorities have banned Arabic chants and speeches at demonstrations

Has anyone taken this to court yet? Surely it would be unconstitutional?

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You're underestimating how much freedom of speech is repressed in Germany when it comes to speech that critizises Israel.

[–] DrDickHandler@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Anyone care too explain why Germany is so pro-Israel?

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 10 points 3 weeks ago

It's a way to launder Germany's reputation after the holocaust while also profiting from the settler-colonialist project of Israel.

Perfect optics. Exactly the outcome the protesters were looking for.

[–] PanArab@lemm.ee 9 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

I did Nazi that coming.

I don’t what it is about opposing the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Palestine that brings out the worst in Western governments and security apparatuses

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I really appreciate the link to a story on this because I hate out of context video. But I really wish they had used a different outlet like Mastodon or Bluesky, I hate giving any traffic to Xwitter.
