    Sounds to me like the “powerful speeches” contained something which is forbidden in your country, forcing the police to act. Maybe Hamas propaganda? Israel should be removed from the map?

      You have no idea and are choosing to assume the protesters did something bad. It’s also possible (and likely) that the cops just abused their power and attempted to break up the protest illegally since they do stuff like that all the time.

          yeah, thoughts & prayers to the cops for turning another peaceful protest violent.

          maybe approach the subject again once you’re done slobbering on pig pp.

          Demanding an intifada is neither wrong nor illegal (at least not in the US). Palestinians have the right to resist their oppressors.

          You think, so it must be. Who cares about facts and statistics. You know best, oh very wise one. By the way, what makes you come to this conclusion? Do you go to protests a lot, are you with the police, do you read a lot on Facebook on shady right wing pages, did Qanon tell you this,… I’d love to hear your support to your claim.

          By the way, intervening a peaceful protest which includes children has a very very low probability of risk for police. They would think twice when the protesters are violent, but when they are peaceful they won’t hit back that hard so it’s rather safe to escalate. The cops in the task forces for breaking up protests are generally people who love to fight, filled with adrenaline and testosterone. Cops who are less eager to fight usually have desk jobs or are regular street officers.

          I don’t know in what country you live, but in countries with freedom of speech you’re free to demand whatever you like, as long as you do not turn violent (except when you’re police of course).

          Please stop spreading unsupported bullshit arguments based on “I think” and “looks like” when you clearly have zero knowledge of how police operate (which I do) and clearly have no clue about this protest (as you make very wrong assumptions)

      Wow, what an awful thing to assume. No, we listened to people talk about losing their families and the villages they grew up in.

      No one was violent, no one called for violence and there was nothing for the police to stop. We walked through a street and then stood still peacefully.
