Israelis rally to demand ceasefire and Netanyahu's resignation
"We hope the world hears us and knows that the people of Israel are not the government of Israel," said one protester.
"We hope the world hears us and knows that the people of Israel are not the government of Israel," said one protester.
Israelis protested on Saturday night, calling for a ceasefire and the resignation of hardline Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Tens of thousands took to the streets in Tel Aviv to demand that the government reach a deal with Hamas to secure the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza.
They also called for new elections, accusing Netanyahu of prolonging the conflict to keep himself in power.

Weird, shouldn't they be rallying to stop biden?
No that’s our job in America, they are doing their part against their government.
Don't you think isrealis might want Americans to fight hard to resist the installment of an authoritarian government so we don't suffer in the same way they are right now?
Which one? The ones cracking down protestors, or the ones wanting to send more bombs to Israel?
The ones proposing project 2025. Would do you good to actually learn what we are up against.
"Install"? The USA wrote the book on genocide. It's a lot more practical to protest your own government.
So is it Biden or is it the entire government?
Once I get you to accept that it isn't just Joe Biden riding this country into the ground maybe you will see there is a whole party of right wing fanatics that want to see Gaza in rubbles and handing them back the government is the worst possible thing that could happen.
That doesn't imply that it's practical for Israelis to protest the American goverment. We aren't going to bomb Gaza if they choose to stop. And we're not going to stop funding the bombs if they weigh in on our election. This isn't about us.
It's not practical to campaign against Biden even here in the states. For the same reasons.
IKR like if America just stopped giving them bombs they wouldn't have to use them, smh...
It's so weird that we would supply our allies with arms when they are surrounded by hostile nations.
You should look into why they're surrounded by hostile nations. Here's some hints: Look into things Hannah Arendt said about starting a settler colonialist colony in the Middle East that required kicking out the locals into neighboring countries who will then hate them and how that is a bad idea. Einstein even said the same warning, about how Israel will just become militarized, and will start conflating miliarization and Jewishness and nationalism together, as a requirement of keeping this settler colony together (because it requires active occupation and death to maintain, meaning it will always have enemies, until they complete the genocide, I suppose).
Sounds complicated. Sounds like something that deserves nuance and consideration when discussing.
Jk Genocide Joe lolol
