    Support of Israel is understandable in this context considering the innocent people that were killed.

    Innocent people are actively being killed in Gaza as we speak.

    What I’m sure of though is that far-right/nazi movements will attack Palestine supporters, probably under cover. We call it “casseurs”, people who are here to break things appart to undermine the event’s credibility. Palestine support is almost left-party only in France.

    A leftwing event being attacked shouldn’t undermine the legitimacy of the left. A false flag attack on a pro-Israel demonstration might though.

      Innocent people are innocent people. You cannot cherry pick who deserves human rights and who doesn’t.

      The fact that the murderer state of Israel killed and continues to kill innocent people is not an excuse for the barbarism we’ve witnessed.

      I will always stand with Palestine, but certainly not for the terrorist Hamas.

        Yes, and by saying supporting Israel was understandable and thus wouldn’t be banned, the implication was that supporting Palestine was not understandable. No one is holding pro-Hamas rallies in France, they’re holding pro-Palestine rallies.

          I absolutely never said that. The “thus” is entirely yours. I never talked about pro-hamas rallies.

          I said that the Macron’s government fears that pro-Palestine rallies degenerate into violent riots.

          I also never said I agree with the interdiction, as I’m ready to fight far-right-wingers. Always have been.
