Israel-Gaza conflict: Thousands march in London to demonstrate against Gaza violence
SKY News ^ | May 15, 2021

Thousands of people have gathered on the streets of central London to protest in solidarity with Palestinians amid the ongoing conflict with Israel.

"Immediate action" is needed by the UK government, organisers say, to help end the "brutal" violence against the people of Palestine.

By Saturday afternoon, thousands of people had marched through Hyde Park in central London, chanting "free, free Palestine", and gathered outside the Israeli embassy in Kensington.

Organisers say that 100,000 people had joined the crowds in Kensington outside the embassy.

On a makeshift stage on Kensington High Street, Labour's Diane Abbott told the crowd: "We must remember we are part of an international movement.

"This is a worldwide movement for justice.

"Palestinian people are having their land seized... and they are now being killed in their homes.

"All of this is illegal."

Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn also spoke, saying: "It's our global voices that will give succour, comfort and support in those settlements alongside Gaza and all over the West Bank, East Jerusalem who are suffering at this time."

The world sees the Palestinians as children, so moral behavior is not expected of them. Typical liberal condescension.

But leashing over 2,000 rockets against Israel is okay?

Excellent. “Stop the violence” means “Stop shooting rockets at Israel,” doesn’t it?

Both of those quoted in the article are indeed Racist Socialists...those following in this protest are just those they can dial up and financed by Soros and his ilk. The usual suspects.

No: “Thousands march in London to demonstrate against Gaza violence” is simply not true. They are marching against Israeli self-defense and for Arab violence.

Remember our friends: not only because of the Bible, but 71 percent of Israelis liked Trump compared to single digits in central Europe which we saved and rebuilt. Lower only to the Philippines (78 percent), but somewhat above Poland, India, Nigeria, Brazil, Kenya and other African countries where Trump and his policies were admired. I have visited most of these and been treated very well; am looking forward to a full tour of the Holy Land in the near future.

I’m not against Israel using nuclear weapons and letting the chips fall where they may. It may destroy everything but if the world wont stop complete genocide then it isn’t a world worth saving.

Who is funding these spontaneous protest? Somebody is behind forking over millions to get those people in the streets. Just the way they did out of the blue instantly here in Chicago. Money brings people out ... I don’t believe for one second it was instantaneous. And another thing how come they were allowed to protest in the streets and yet the veterans rolling thunder cannot have a rally in DC? What’s wrong with this picture! I despise our present government! All of DC needs to be burned down the mayor the capital every government institution it is polluted with evil that can only be cleansed by fire!

These are the type of Muslims you get when you open the floodgates to illegal immigration! They never assimilate into the country but bring their hatred etc. and vitriol culture into a nation. These illegal invaders that invaded London someday will turn severely on the hand or the nation that feeds them!

I spent almost 20 yrs in the region and you are correct. The Arabs hate the paliscum.
