The German police brutally assault an Irish woman protesting against Israel's genocide. The German state is a disgrace. It committed genocide against the Jewish people - far from its only genocide. It forced Palestinians to pay the price, viciously silencing anyone who objects
When, where?
They all do Berlins Police is full of nazis... They do tons of obviously illegal shit against any left, but with pali demos they just let lose. They do whatever they want. Other big cities aren't that bad yet..
He protects Berlin jews against Hamas supporters, I assume that you are not very intelligent
But israeli genocide in palestine is okay.. which is just like Whats russia is doing or trying to in ukraine.. and you call yourself a fella.. shame.
Terrible things happen in Gaza, but I would never call it a genocide. Please google the definition and then compare.
Israel is just a Zionist Russia.. doing the exact same thing.. so you both support genocide and is against genocide.. and you talk about my intelligence.. you should work on your own degraded intelligence, it seems.. because you are being hypocritical on the subject of genocide.
The words you use to insult the German police who defends the law against terorist supporters say a lot about your education.
Silence hasbara
Again, Germany is on the wrong side of history. Will you ever learn?
Wenn du mich triggern willst mit deinem Nazi 🐂💩muss ich dich leider enttäuschen 😘
Say the person who is literally defending genocide 🤦♂️
Willst du diskutieren oder einfach nur kindisch sein? bsky.app/profile/rays...
You are a Fake human
Leave the Jews alone, they have nothing to do with this aggression. You are the one putting them in danger, and certainly not this brave woman
You could try walking through Berlin wearing a kippah and a Star of David to see how people with a islamic cultural background react
NAFOid being revealed as a simple western xenophobe, nothing unusual
He punches a woman in the face, twice. How is that "protecting jews against Hamas"? What kind of indoctrinated moron are you?
Hast du gesehen was vorher passiert ist? Nein!
It's evident that it wasn't self defense. There's no excuse.
Aha und das weisst du woher?
I know this because I got eyes.
Du warst nicht da ei, und hast nur eine n Ausschnitt gesehen. Also darfst du dir kein Urteil erlauben
I've seen enough. You're just in denial. Fed up with you, bye.
All cops are bastards. Police do not protect the people. They enforce law. Even when a cop is doing something right, such as protecting Jews from violence, it is ancillary to their actual job description.
How old are you ? 14?
I'm 40 and fed up with ignorant people like you who still think that the job of a cop is to protect people. Plenty of "good cops" dragged Jews out of their homes and into gas chambers. What is the law and what is right and wrong are very rarely the same thing.
Why cops are killing jews in your country, where do you live? this is horrible
No in my country they're currently terrorizing Washington DC, dragging innocent people out of court rooms, throwing them into prison camps, etc. However they are not (yet) targeting Jews, although the fascist's rise to power was very much benefited by antisemitic propaganda.
JFC they never changed. 🤬🤬🤬
We didn't Nuremberg hard enough
WTF @amnestypolizei.bsky.social @cilip-de.bsky.social
ACAB Everywhere
SHAME SHAME
His family and neighbours and the international community need to know what he did. Name and shame every single fascist.
Back to their old Nazi ways.
This is what people are protesting….. bsky.app/profile/joen...
Here is why I don't believe your story. www.npr.org/2025/08/08/n...
Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant. www.irishtimes.com/world/europe...
I don't believe what it is implying. I've lived in Germany and know better. Especially when their head of state comes right out and announces an end to military aid for Israel. Do some research or at least watch the news once in a while.
Oh dear, you just seem to keep repeating the same bollocks. Like I said though, thankfully your opinion is irrelevant.
Trying to talk with someone whose head is full of cement is fruitless, so I'll leave you to the bags.
He announced there would be no more new contracts. The ones already agreed will be filled.
don't you have eyes?
I used to live in Germany. They have pockets of extremists in all directions and that goes to the polizei too. Get a little educated before you go on the attack.
huh, look who's going on the attack now. you DID say you don't believe @owenjones.bsky.social 's story, didn't you?
I meant I didn't believe what it implies, that all of Germany is for Israeli genocide or attacks on Gaza. Their government says differently and if you had any actual experience in Germany you would understand what I'm saying
oh my god du überheblicher Kerl. 'hätte ich tatsächlich Erfahrungen in Deutschland' 🙄 Sie haben ja keine Ahnung was meine Erfahrungen wären. The guy shared a clip of police brutality, you say 'i dont believe your story'. nowhere does it imply the whole of Germany is condoning the israeli genocide
Lay off Google translate and instead read up on Germany's history and current governmental situation. Then you'll see how mind numbingly stupid you sound now.
hahaha je hebt geen idee man. flikker een eind op.
. maybe you didn't know about the Herero people? i think you jumped to the wrong conclusions about this post and now you're mansplaining Germany to me? Arschloch
Google translate is an easy string.
To be honest Owen this footage needs to be subjected to forensic analysis and if abuse is disclosed then the judicial process must be applied. However many comments BTL assume the police to be culpable simply on the basis that they are German which you must agree is disturbing.
You can see them being punched in the face. You can see their arm being broken. You can see the abuse. Forensic analysis me hole.
You can see the police punch her in the face. Not enough for you? It's not the first time the German police displays this type of violence against pro Palestina protestors. The country is pro Israel because of their past, but you can't mention that past?
Punch in the face then break her arm Yeah nothing to worry anyone here 🤦🏻♂️ fk me
Germany showing its under Israeli control now
Well done Germany
And they don't scare us.
Allegedly they broke a bone in her arm during her removal/arrest?
Where are Baader-Meinhof when you need them most?
My friend Alaa from Gaza City has a dangerously sick son with 40° fever and difficulty to even eat and drink. Please, Owen, post their campaign on Instagram. History Speaks has helped this campaign before and you once rted it from him. bsky.app/profile/sera...
It’s only few weeks since they arrested ppl for speaking in Irish in Berlin!!!!!!!!! Not a peep out of the Irish Foreign Minister! A recognised language of the EU criminalised by the German police. Revolting behaviour by the Germans.
Dirty cvnt,
Luckily there are pictures! Hope the judge grants her a huge compensation!
I'm so desensitized by US cop videos, this one barely registers any outrage.
For some reason German state, ever since its formation in 19th Century, just can’t help but be on the wrong side of history.
They punched her twice in that clip, in the face. I’m hearing they also broke her arm Owen.
In the clip, just before the end, the one on the left wrenches her arm back and down needlessly. Wouldn't surprise me if her arm was broken then. Police brutality, nothing more, nothing less.
They needed surgery on the broken arm. (Please note Kitty uses they/them pronouns.) 🇮🇪 🇵🇸
Absolute and utter brutality.
Yes, they broke it - she had to have it operated on. Horrific police brutality. I saw them smashing someone's face into a train last week. It was really shocking.
Yes really is shocking. We are seeing more and more peaceful protest in 'democracies' being shut down by the state using force. Notice how openly they crack down with assaults we'd be arrested for? They're unconcerned being filmed 'cos they know they're acting without fear of reprimand. Shameful.
Yup. Very very scary.
Also hit or grabbed from behind towards the end of the clip. Horrific assault.
i love this woman ❤️ Palestine will be free
Different uniforms, same Nazi's.
i wish i could bring any kind of counterpoint to that, but thats just how it is
@simonharrisireland.bsky.social
funny i think if he wants to stand up for hamas let em go there watch how fast they (hamas) cut his head off
Utter disgrace. Those old Gestapo tendencies haven't quite gone away, have they? Give thugs a badge and that's what they become.
Thanks for posting this- her response is awesome!
ACAB, always.
She has more courage than those policemen
When did this happen ?
Yesterday evening. www.independent.ie/irish-news/i...
The Nazis are on the rise, spearheaded by Zionists
For protesting against Genocide? When did that become a crime?? When Police Officers begin to attack people standing up for humanity - that’s when people begin to to fight back and there are millions of more of us than them
Salvajes....
@down.blue
⬇️ Sure! Press here to download it!
ACAB and especially over there, seems they didn't fully rout out the nazis
They applied legislation to deter it but clearly the education wasn't effective enough throughout the country
Ill disciplined, brutal, fascist thugs in uniform hitting women with no justification and no self control. Absolutely shameful.
Estos nazis lo mismo matan judíos que los defienden a muerte.
Zionist sons of bitches.
Christ sake!!! Hope you’re ok kitty xxx
Still Nazis after 80 years
We Germans know: If you bring aggression to a country, you have to face the consequences.
Germany always in the wrong side of the history
German police emulating the SS nazis...theyve learnt nothing from their history. 🤮.
Exactly , the police enforce the law of their country , just look at how we are now policed wgrn we protest . Ppl need to attack the government who create the law and environment for police brutality. This genocide is showing the true colours of many States.
Puro fascismo
Absolutamente
Vile scenes of resurgent fascism.
Absolutely disgusting, zero excuse for that
Q puta vergüenza. Alemania, no vayas para atrás que te encuentras.
Cierto cierto
Germany going for Genocidaire Extraordinaire three centuries in a row! Africa (1800s), Europe (1900s), Palestine (2000s).
Fascists gonna fash
What do you say to trump openly supporting Russia and Nazis in general?
Very bad thing we can think of
The problem with Owen is that he never stands against Russia and Putin
We were considering a cruise on the Rhine but having seen several videos like this we will never set foot in Germany again. The nat-zee isn't far back in them, is it?
they actually think that they can appease some of the guilt from the holocaust by fully supporting the zionist terrorist GENOCIDE in their gaza ghetto
And in both cases they continue to be 'genocide friendly'.
As far as i've seen not one german Media has even mentioned this, just like all the other violent police attacks at pro palestine Protests in german cities. But some paint been thrown at an Israel flag theres breaking news. I fucking loathe this country

Still going strong in Germany, shocking!
Freikorps
this is an important watch ..it explains exactly how this has come about in Germany www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...
A German cop using violence against a person protesting genocide.... Yeah, that's a fucking nazi. Those pigs are all nazi bastards. ACAB, fuck the police!
White man punches woman..protect our women and girls
Supporting a genocide is not normally considered the best way to atone for committing one.
Historical guilt over the holocaust is the only reason so many countries are still supporting Israel
Way over the top.
She deserved it
@riveranotario.bsky.social
Oh no
@janboehm.bsky.social
All they changed was their flag.
It is a complete disgrace that the German state has never learned its lesson and that it still proudly partakes in genocide. Anyone who contributes to this is no different from a nazi.
@theguardian.com @deborahcole.bsky.social I would like the ask why you have not used this footage which clearly shows Kitty being deliberately punched in the face twice by the police officer, and which shows her arm being wrenched until it cracks.
"One of the officers then appears to strike them in the face twice. It is unclear from the footage whether the police officer intentionally targeted O’Brien’s face." This, your choice of an edited video, and emphasis on insults makes it seem like you are misleading the public over what happened here
Anyone who sees this video, rather than your edited version, can be in no doubt that a German police officer deliberately punched a protester in the face, twice, only to remove her from the crowd and deliberately inflict serious injury to her arm. I do not not why you are clouding these facts.
A disgraceful response from the Berlin Police. Basically "she had it coming" www.independent.ie/irish-news/i...
Only cowards punch women in the face. Low life scum cowards😡😡😡
Fuckin bastard's
They are quite literally Nazis. She is protesting against a genocide and Nazis don’t like anyone protesting against genocide.
You can hear them crack her arm at 30 seconds. After punching her repeatedly in the face and breaking her nose. Will anything be done? I have not seen even the American police behave so brutally.
to be fair, i've seen several videos of american cops just straight up shooting people, including a child...
America is nutts this is EU
US police kill ~ 4 people a day.
True, but what does that have to do with the German police brutalizing an Irish tourist peacefully protesting???
It was a reply to @mea-tulpa.bsky.social saying they never saw american police behaving this brutally. German cops fucking suck, but they arent anywhere near as murderous as US ones.
and tbf bsky.app/profile/mea-...
No one's saying US police aren't murderous. That doesn't really have any bearing on German police brutalising protesters.
bsky.app/profile/fryb...
No, clearly the Nazis have won right? That's what it seems like to me, we're all just waiting for a bullet to the head
I recognise that the US police are worse. What I should have written is "this is some of the worst police brutality that I have seen".
ICE is behaving? How many are killed by police in the USA and how many are white?
Shouldn't fucking bend that way Jesus christ
Holy fuck.
"You dont fucking scare us"? Unfortunately they do scare us, they're German police and we know what those fuckers are capable of when they put their mind to it.
Nazis entonces y nazis ahora.
We'll fighting them again before long... whole lotta people gotta die again.
Germany has a very strange skill: To pick the worst side of history every now and then. It's not only their awful attitude towards pro-Palestine demonstrations, also Ursula Von der Leyen selling out to the orange c*nt, causing a lot of damage to the EU citizens. Fuck German politicians.
Is a very recent state (1871) that lost the 2 World wars it started. The rest of german politics is invented mythology to justify selfishness
They have infamous grandfathers. They learned from the experienced family. What a shame 😩
I hope she sues them....and gets the Irish government involved!!!
Update - skwawkbox.org/2025/08/30/i...
„Es gibt diese überbordende Gewalt der Polizei, diese Schläge ins Gesicht, das ist entgrenzte Gewalt.“ www.sueddeutsche.de/politik/berl...
Regulation Wehrmacht haircut...not even trying to hide anymore.
WTF!
The only good cops are the dead cops.
Y luego cuando se manifiestan los fachas se cagan y les ponen la alfombra roja, les protegen. La cosa me parece que se está complicando demasiado. Por desgracia creo que vienen tiempos muy complicados. Espero equivocarme.
That man is a coward. He is in that uniform so he can hit women. There was no need to punch her. What a fucking gimp. He is also the shortest of the cops, compensating wee fuckwit.
Please get an interview with Kitty O'Brien
Don't be a Nazi Free Palestine
Omg. Oder, mein Gott!!! Wth are they doing??!
Germany is always on the wrong side of the history
ACAB.
What is it with men these days? So many of them are just so violent and nasty. 🤮
Same as it ever was.
Haven’t changed much, have they? Authoritarian Nazis, that is. To see this kind of brutality being normalised by states in more and more countries means we’re getting closer to having to go beyond peaceful protest. The Ts&Cs of peace are being broken by the state. Therefore the state has failed.
This Irish woman was not punched because being a terror supporter. You are a hater insulting my land and its police officers. You better stick to Irish problems and take your countrymen with you.
Just watch the video and see what the police did.
Those video, my dear, is shortened and doesn't mention, that the police declared the party closed beforehand. And not a Kitty O'Brien not obeying police orders to leave instead challenging police officers repeatedly and aggressively. It's not as easy.
It's called civil disobedience. You might want to try it when your government is supporting a genocide.
It's illegal. That's the point. And therefore the police is obliged to act accordingly. There is always the possibility to lodge a complaint with the administrative court to question that.
Yes civil disobedience almost always involves being on the wrong side of the law. A trained police officer punching a protestor repeatedly in the face and then breaking her arm is a disgraceful response to civil disobedience. As a society, Germany appears to have completely lost its moral compass.
Fafo? Acting and facing consequences? She has been warned. There is no need to victimize her. Please, do not twist the facts. If you challenges a state, you can't reckon to get away with it unpunished.
She's a victim of quite a vicious assault. Being arrested doesn't make you fair game for that kind of state sponsored brutality. The fact that you believe it does speaks volumes.
Sorry to say it: she is a victim of misbehaviour, resistance against administrative orders, and her faith, that would be tolerated. To my knowledge Ms O'Brien is well-known among the protesters and the police so something might piled up. And: yes, I do support a zero tolerance policy.
Actually most participants in civil disobedience against authoritarian regimes do so in the knowledge that it can have consequences like this. As you can see from the video, the police officers violent assault doesn't surprise her at all. You've misunderstood what the term 'zero tolerance' means.
Germany will never not support genocide.
Sturmabteilung vibes.
The original Nazis are back in action, folks!
For all their scolding about Trump over the last few months, they sure seem intent on not being shown up when it comes to police brutality. Especially when it concerns genocide.
ACAB
It would be appropriate that a 2. letter must be sent to Germany by Mike O'Flaherty, Commissioner for Human Rights EU.
What does Micheàl Martin have to say about this?
I forgot he was Taoiseach, he's a walking void.
They need SIGs and use them against the poliza
Nazis gonna Nazi
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Why are police everywhere such thugs?
wtf. she's doing nothing wrong?
Germany consistently manages to be in the wrong side of history. Like that guy who wants to leave the slow lane, but ends up in the slow lane no matter what.
Nazis are all cowards.
Certainly means nothing was learnt in history class. That's a concern.
@cducsueuropa.bsky.social @dielinkebt.de @gruene-bundestag.de @spdfraktion.de ???
Is the Gestapo back?
German state reverts to type.
Was ist dass? Absolute brutal
Fuckin animals, uniformed fuckin thugs.
Yes, they are cops. These are also openly Nazis, that's the main difference.
@germanyinirl.bsky.social fascists
I’m a lifelong progressive, but an increasing % of us suffer from “Rhetoric Exaggeration Disease”. Consider this post’s content & conclusions: 1. Condemn police brutality ✅ 2. Germany makes Palestinians pay the price❓🤔 3. Germany genocided Jews ❓Invoking the holocaust to score rhetorical points❓
Reasons why some male police officers need testosterone control.
Not nearly enough Nazis were executed after WWII
in the last scene they break her arm?
Yes. The broken arm required surgery.
Hope the coward punching the woman does jail time.
Makin their grandparents proud!! Scum
Shocking
Ireland, recall your ambassador to protest this human rights violation.
Germans doing german stuff, how surprising
