Answer: The Bastille was a symbol like the Berlin wall, by destroying it they were tearing down that symbol of oppression, just like when the Berlin wall was torn down. Well, the difference is time frames one was in 1789 (Bastille) the other was in 1989 (Berlin Wall). Another, major difference was the circumstances, the Bastille was stormed in a battle, and the Berlin wall was torn down in without a fighting going on while it was happening.
