Why are we not winning?
What will it take to free Palestine?
Let’s start with the hopeful bit…
Manila, Phillipines
MY PEOPLE
Jakarta, Indonesia
Rome, Italy
They fight the cops
Black bloc protesters threw stones, bottles and paper bombs at the police, who responded with tear gas and water cannons, eventually dispersing the crowd.
At least 30 law enforcement officers and 3 demonstrators were injured in the clashes. FUCK YEAH. THIRTY COPS.
Edinburgh, Scotland
London, England
Cape Town, South Africa
Dublin, Ireland
Paris, France
Berlin, Germany
Basel, Switzerland
Thousands of protesters. Thousands.
Athens, Greece
Caracas, Venezuela
Sydney, Australia
Toronto, Canada
Ottawa, Canada
And yet…
From what we’ve observed, this is the biggest amassing of power this year. Thousands upon thousands upon thousands of people came together across the world to march for Palestine and Lebanon yesterday. And yet last night Netanyahu attacks medical facilities in Beirut. During what was already a crisis and overload of the medical care system, medical facilities are closing.
How? How? How?
How can we remain peaceful?
What stops us from fighting back, but with claws this time?
