The outbreak of war between Israel and Hamas has led to intense and emotional rallies across the world as the conflict stretches into its fifth day, with gruesome details continuing to emerge from southern Israel and the Gaza Strip coming under intense aerial assault.
Both pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian protests have broken out, with heated rhetoric in some cases devolving into ugly displays of antisemitism,Since the founding of Israel more than 75 years ago, the Palestinians’ plight has been a rallying cry for neighbors such as Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt, even though they have also been criticized for not doing enough to materially improve the lives of Palestinian refugees.
Demonstrators gathered in front of the Israeli Embassy in London on Monday, waving placards with messages such as “Israel are the new Nazis,” as well as the green Hamas flag. Attendees danced and called for a “Free Palestine.” To make matters more complex, many of these pro-Palestinian protests, with their occasional shows of antisemitism, are taking place in cities from which Jews were deported to the Nazi concentration camps during World War II. Those scars are deep and can reopen at times like these., with speakers endorsing the killing of Israelis by Hamas to cheers and applause. One young man held up his phone to show a Nazi swastika.
