French authorities have banned demonstrations in support of Gaza, arrested protesters, and moved to dissolve several Palestine advocacy groups.

    Palestinians have legitimate reasons to protest but they keep getting mixed in with the “from the river to the sea crowd” remember if your protest allows nazis then it’s a nazi protest.

    Hard to take them seriously when they act like they are entitled to land that the they lost via conquest after they stuck their nose up at every attempt of negotiation. I haven’t seen many Palestinians protesting the government of Gaza.

      I don’t see a ton of human rights protesters in Israel either. Yeah some exist but by far most Israeli voters seem to support the “Palestinians are sub humans” rhetoric at the voting booth.

        Somehow I don’t think that you’re arguing in good faith, but anyway… There were many pro Palestine protests in Tel Aviv University and up until recently the biggest protests Israel ever had were against the current government. It’s also probably not possible to organise anything when you have to run to a shelter every hour to hide from rockets.

      There are currently nazis fighting in the Ukrainian army against Russia’s imperialist invasion. Would you call the Ukrainian army a nazi army? Maybe the situation calls for us to focus on the state currenlty commiting a genocide against Palestinian people and not on the optics of the protests.

      remember if your protest allows nazis then it’s a nazi protest.

      What are you talking about? How are you going to prevent people from joining a protest on public land?

      You must be one of those people who listens to soundbites as though they are gospel. The real world is a little bit more complicated than whatever you have going on in your head.

      It’s fucking hilarious seeing communities like this who in the past have been so gung-ho about shit like punching Nazis standing next to the people who want to annihilate the Jews.

      You guys don’t stand for justice, you just like punching people.

        I hate hamas, but Israel is currently committing a genocide against Palestinian people in gaza. We should focus on the action of the so called “only democracy in the middle east”. Especially because western governments are supporting israel in its actions.

        Do not fall for israeli propaganda. The bombing and murder of innocent civilians is a bad thing. Its bad when hamas does it and bad when israel does it, but hamas is a horrible terrorist group and israel is supposed to be a civilized country. We should expect better from such a powerful country as Israel.
