In the Netherlands, a police officer grabbed a pregnant woman by the arm and hurled her to the ground! Upon seeing his pregnant wife slam into the pavement, her husband attacked the officer.
In Amsterdam, other police officers—who had stood by watching as their colleague threw the pregnant woman to the ground—immediately subdued the husband the moment he retaliated.
The couple in this video are Wesam Mekdad, a Palestinian from Gaza, and his heavily pregnant German wife.
Police were called after Wesam broke his TV — he had just learned that ‘israel’ murdered his brother. The couple were cooperative. They explained the situation. The wife wanted to ask the police if she can accompany her husband.
The police responded with brutality.
People from National Protest (an anti‑immigration group) are so outraged by how a pregnant woman was treated that they have offered to help the couple file a complaint against the police.
The wife gave birth earlier than expected. A baby girl. Healthy. Her name is Reem.
I’m so glad they’re both ok, this could have ended differently.
