Israeli Jews for Palestine: Tel Aviv students

Jewish Israeli students studying at Tel Aviv University in Israel held a peaceful demonstration -- just as is happening in the U.S. -- AGAINST Israel's genocidal war on Gaza and Palestine on Tuesday (May 28, 2024).

In leaflets distributed by them, the Jewish demonstrators wrote that "at 12:00-1:00 p.m. we will hold a school strike and protest on the lawn against the ongoing extermination and massacre of the Palestinian people in Gaza."
What if all Jews lived up to their moral ideals? What a world it would be.

During the peaceful demonstration, Jewish citizens opposed to the protest arrived, including Eli Albag, the father of Liri Elbag, the IDF militant lookout who is still being held hostage by Hamas, and Kobi Samrano, the father of the late Yonatan Samrano who was allegedly murdered [or sacrificed by the Jewish IDF in line with its adherence to its Hannibal Doctrine of killing Jews to prevent them from becoming hostages they will have to negotiate for later] in captivity and whose body is thought to be in Gaza.

A confrontation developed between Albag against the protesters. The confrontation began when one of the peaceful demonstrators allegedly told Albag: "You have nothing to do here. Get out of here. Move."

In response to this, Albag, who was wearing a shirt with a picture of his daughter Liri on it, did not remain silent. He waved it and said: "They kidnapped my daughter. Don't bother me. You have no God! They took my daughter."

[Incredible how sensitive Israeli Jewish students are to plight of murdered Palestinians]

"Unbelievable how detached they are," blasted Albag. In an interview with Maariv, Albag spoke about the development of his clash with Jewish students:

"Jewish and Arab students protested against the 'killing' of the Palestinians in Gaza.

Jews for ceasefire now! Regime change in Israel
"As a father whose daughter was kidnapped, I was interested to hear what they had to say. I stood by them quietly and did not open my mouth, but within seconds one of the students came, attacked me [with words I didn't like], and said to me, 'Who are you? You have nothing to do here. Get out of here.'" [Might that have had something to do with the tee-shirt I was
wearing?] More
