Demonstrators gather on sidelines of DNC calling for shift in US policy in Israel

Demonstrators gathered near the Democratic national convention in Chicago to demonstrate against US aid of Israel’s war in Gaza, intent on sending a message to the Democratic party, that their votes need to be earned and not to take their support for granted.

  7. A Colonialist Apartheid state fighting against women and children.
    And a “Super power” is sending help to the apartheid. “Civiilised power” !!!

  8. – Terr. Netanyahu let the attack happen on his own country, despite knowing about the attack 3 days before it happened.
    – Music festival was organised with lot of foreigners just 3 miles away from the border. On whose order?
    – Music festival was extended by one day as the attack did not happen when it was thought to happen. On whose order?
    – Noticing that music festival casualty were less, used IDF to increase the casualties in the music festival. On whose order?

  27. Messages to the powerful

    If the child of Gaza could speak, he would say to you: "By defending my executioner you are making me die doubly. He took my life, you are taking my soul, so how can I rest in peace?"

    He would say to you: "You, who were his executioner, do you think you can erase your crimes by helping him make me his victim?"

    He would say to you: "But you, who helped him in the name of justice, why don't you do it for me, how am I different that I don't deserve, out of humanity, a little compassion?"
