@nedkelly there were massive protests for BLM. Where are the protests for the People of Palestine

@Bettzsyy People don't care about what happens far from where they live. BLM was about something happening under their nose. Here in Europe, in comparison, they were minimal, for the same reason.

How is that going to make a difference? BLM protests in the USA were effective (no matter where you stand), because it was in the USA where the problem is.

Only the USA is capable of exerting pressure to put an end to this, as Israel's main arms supplier and financial backer. The US, at this point, seems to be buying into Netanyahu's logic of inflicting enough damage on Hamas, to prevent it from carrying future attacks. This is not working, and it's time to stop the carnage.
