I highly doubt those protestors actually give a fuck about the Palestinians, Gaza, or the occupied West Bank (besides the fact that Israel itself is an occupation). They just want the hostages back and don't like Netanyahu.

But the media is gonna spin this as though it's just "bad apples" like Netanyahu that are the problem and if they were removed it'll be all good.

Not that this doesn't help in a way, but why aren't these guys beating the shit out of the settler scum blocking aid convoys to Gaza? Or blocking passages themselves? The fact that they can do some real damage to the genocidal machinery even in subtle and "non-violent" ways but only resort to these performative rallies has me doubt their limp-wristed appeals to caring about Palestinians.

It's almost funny in a twisted way to me because even Israelis who see just how cancerous Netanyahu and his clique are towards the long-term survival of the zionist entity aren't treating this with the "appropriate" severity.

Pretty much all Israeli politics, ending Apartheid is out of the question. This is reflected in the protests.

Or blocking passages themselves?

Have you heard of the canadian girl who blocked the passage herself against an israeli bulldozer?

Rachel Corrie was American, or did the zionists kill a Canadian that way too?
