The police [will] use any excuse to suppress people

Maybe in your country, here the police is not considered an enemy of the people in general. Not speaking for all of them and definitely not the guys in the video.

by claiming the protestors are even doing any bad

You don't understand, my point is that the guys doing the bad thing are not part of the group of protesters.

Might have something to do with the US not having the cards right now

Threesday, coming straight after Twosday.

Also, who the hell posts stuff like this on LinkedIn of all places?

We should ask him this too. But I think the fact he doesn't have access to journalists but doesn't post anonymous does give him some credibility imho.

If a former Western intelligence official says this, I assume current western intelligence officials also have proof. If that's true, European governments must have known this before Ukraine went public on this. It is quite likely they went public to pressure Western governments into pressuring the Chinese governments. Good news is China and EU are talking, but I do hope they are actually trying to get China to take their people home because if this escalates it might get ugly fast.

Like anybody believes Trump when he says this is what he wanted. But I feel this is more Russia showing strength (or them trying to), especially since they seem to be sabotaging stuff for a while now, also according to the article.

I agree, but a spy chief saying something out loud is mainly a diplomatic message and not a secret plan.

In this case the damage is paid for with public money and their insurance which is paid for by the general public. I wouldn't care about it if it would be payed by Israel supporters.

I never said what these policemen do is right.

They are not breaking this of the rich, they are breaking things of a university which is funded with public taxpayers money in the Netherlands. The rich are much better at avoiding paying taxes than the rest of the people.

If their goal was to change the minds of people that matter they would go demolish things in government buildings (which doesn't settle in Amsterdam) or the houses of politicians, maybe even fight the police or something.

The people who did the all the damage here are not the same people who organised the protests. This damage is done by people who are angry and act like hooligans who's team just lost a match. They might be on the same side as the protesters, but they are not helping the people in Gaza either because they're giving far-right politicians excuses to spill their racist bullshit about how they shouldn't support Islamic people because they are violent by nature.

I don't think you understand what people you are defending here.
