The Reichstag will be free!

How stunning and brave or something.

Berlin: Pro-Palestinian activist replaces German flag – Three men detained after activist scales Berlin’s “Flag of Unity” pole and raises a Palestinian flag.

A pro-Palestinian activist climbed a flagpole outside Berlin’s Reichstag on Sunday and replaced the German flag with a Palestinian flag, prompting a police and fire service response. Three men were detained following the incident.

Using climbing gear, the activist scaled the nearly 30-meter pole in Platz der Republik, in front of the building that houses Germany’s federal parliament, the Bundestag. He removed the 60-square-meter German flag and threw it to the ground before raising a Palestinian flag. Two other men remained below and filmed the incident.
