Adam Smith, ISL – RCIT section in Israel/Occupied Palestine, 25.09.2024
An anti-war demonstration was organized on Tuesday(24.9) by the Hadash(CPI). It had a presence of ISA/Socialist Struggle, as well as several peace NGOs. It had a relatively large number of people, between 50 and 100. The protest was against the escalation of the war in Lebanon. As could be sadly expected from such organizers, no explicitly anti Zionist slogans were raised(e.g. “From the River to the Sea Palestine will be free”), instead focusing on reformist slogans and false equivalency(e.g. “Jews and Arabs refuse to be enemies”/”Both in Gaza and Sderot children want to live”), as this is actually war between an oppressor and oppressed. Never the less, it is still important to protest, especially when their are less opportunities to do so, as Israel becomes more and more authoritarian.
Down with the Zionist War and Genocide!
For Palestine red and free from the river to the sea!
