It is greatly worrying that the violence there is spilling over to our country.
The protestors are right and the government is wrong.
Not in our name. We want no part in crimes against civilians in this Israel-Hamas conflict.

be careful if you're jewish or queer when you attend these!
-
Why?
-
Bigotry and hatred for both groups. LBGT people are oppressed in Palestine. In Gaza, same sex relationships are illegal and punishable by up to 10 years in prison.

There's been violence towards Jews and Queers during these rallies.

Dude's a Zionist antisemitic fearmongerer.

Glad I passed on going into town today
-
I would honestly like to see whether these people support Palestinians or just support terrorism
-
Why don't you take a guess? How many people really "just support terrorism"? The concept is bizarre.
-
I've run into a handful of people here on Lemmy who support Hamas and their actions.
-
You would be surprised. Be happy you don't know these people who shout, "Hamas is a liberation movement!"
-
-
They have attacked pro palestinian supporters that say hamas are terrorist. So a lot of them seem to support terrorism.
-
I seriously have the impression that a huge amount of people can only see things in black and white
They seem to think if someone condemns Hamas they condemn Palestrina as a whole - or that if someone says the terrorism and taking hostages was bad they automatically support whatever Israel is doing since whatever it is it will be less cruel than what Hamas did.
Why does it seem so bewildering to do many people to see both sides as bad but also see that removing Hamas is a goal that's worth fighting for as it's the only road to peace for Palestine?
What are they protesting FOR - they are only against the current war (which is fine but very shortsighted) as far as I can tell.
They want them to stay under Hamas control? They don't want a proposed united Palestine under control of the west bank government?
They want a Palestine "from the river to the sea" which means all Jews and Israel as a country is gone - but what happens if they won't go peacefully? Would it be okay to attack civilians to drive them out of the country you claim is yours?
This whole thing is fucking complex - by picking a side like this it's cutting too many corners and very shortsighted imho...

-
They should go protest to whom is doing the thing, not to bystanders. Hamas and IDF are doing this so maybe they should contact them?
-
We don't live in a direct democracy, we live in a representative one. Our representatives are supposed to, you know, represent us, in putting our government's resources to action according to our intentions.
-
Yawn... yet another worthless white moderate whining that other people's lives and freedom are less important than his convenience.
-
-
If you're going to invoke Dr. King in this conflict you should be aware of his position regarding it.
-
-
-
So happy I do not live in a big city right now. So annoying to be blocked by these people when trying to get anywhere.
-
It's a sign that you can't continue living your life just the way you do. It's a wake-up call, you dipshit.
-
Are blindly fired missiles next?
-
I absolutely can though? Looking forward to the next news cycle as this is getting kinda boring.

Also same in the Central Railway Station of Helsinki, Finland. Apparently an organic protest without a spokesperson. Protests require to be notified to the police beforehand here so this was a surprise
