Thousands of people rallied Saturday in central London for a pro-Palestinian protest following police warnings that anyone showing support for the militant group Hamas could face arrest.

    It is good to show solidarity with Palestinians - it is not acceptable to cheer for Hamas on the other hand.

    If you are able to differentiate between Hamas and the Palestinians and Israeli government and Israeli people your moral compass still somewhat works.

      That’s right, Gazans should peacefully protest for their rights.

      More than 6,000 unarmed demonstrators were shot by military snipers, week after week at the protest sites by the separation fence.

      Wait not like that

        From the article:

        The Commission found that Israeli Security Forces killed 183 of these protesters with live ammunition. Thirty-five of these fatalities were children, while three were clearly marked paramedics, and two were clearly marked journalists.

          As we know, journalists from BBC and Reuters and Al Jazeera are clearly Hamas fronts.

      Seems to me that if people don’t want to get killed by Hamas, they could simply try not doing 80 years of genocide.

      You can support indigenous people without cheering on the raiders. /s

      Anticolonialism isn’t just a word. Read Wretched of the Earth by Fanon.

      It is a shame how many children were killed. It was very irresponsible for Israel to prop up a fundamentalist group to sideline the PLO, and then for settler parents to bring their children right next to the world’s largest open air concentration camp.

      This is all one big exercise in independence.

      I’m glad we’re seeing people actually have independent thought instead of just rushing to say whatever will make them fit in with their tribe.

      What’s wrong with supporting Hamas? Are there any other groups fighting the zionists?
