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.
You are linking a right wing Zionist paper as a source which is famous for making stuff up.
This is not context this is just misinformation. Your alleged context also makes no sense with the video as the cops are mashing in skulls instead of trying to break through.
It is indeed a more conservative / center-right newspaper. That doesn't mean it is wrong. The German media landscape is much diverser and more free than what you are used to in the US.
Here is another source from a more liberal newspaper.
But let's be honest here, you are angry and do not care about information outside your bubble. That's okay, downvote and move on.
Zionists infiltrating pro Palestine demonstrationts make up fake stories of antisemitism is such a classic trope by now that I am amazed anyone still buys them.
Once again your story fails to explain the video in any logical way. The police is acting like football hooligans. Or actually a better term: Nazis. And somehow we have a sympathizer coming in with claims the peaceful protesters were the violent ones.
Consider watching the video again.
