Dressed uniformly in black, the protesters with Jewish Voice for Peace gathered on the pedestal shortly before 1 p.m. when they dropped massive banners with calls for a cease-fire and other slogans, such as “The Whole World Is Watching” and “Never Again for Anyone.” The group sang “Cease-fire now” and occupied the national monument for about 20 minutes before dispersing. The protest, which the group said included more than 500 people, continued on a ferry headed back to Manhattan.
Person super ignorant about the situation here:
When they say the Palestinians “want to be free” do they mean from the war, or were they not previously?
They not previously.
People who fled previous wars are not allowed to come back. People who are in west bank can’t move easily due to many many checkpoints. People who became Israeli are not allowed the same right as “European Jew”. People who are living in Isreal are bing “legally” kicked out from there homes if a jewsh family claim the area as there own. People who are Yemenian or Ethiopian Jew got their kids missing in the past, they took their kids and most likely these kids died and never documented. Occupiers,“called settlers”, get free arms, ( claimed to protect themselves) but they go around to humiliate other plastenian in villages while the Israel, “security”, is watching.
Everything I mentioned can be easily verified by a google search.
Thanks for the reply. That sounds horrific
