German police yesterday violently broke up an International Women's Day march in support of #Palestine and #solidarity with Palestinian #women who continue to struggle under Israeli occupation.
Last year, #AmnestyInternational sharply criticized the #Berlin police for using excessive force against demonstrators at a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Berlin.

@prolrage @EndIsraeliApartheid Linking arms is not a good tactic against this. Shields, fireworks, and thrown projectiles is what works.
During the 2020 Uprising the cops generally avoided fighting shield wall to shield wall.
Problem is the need to know in advance the cops will attack, or else having to militarize every protest for defense.
