    They don’t want a ceasefire, they want the hostages back. afterwards the bombing can continue as usual.

    The framing of this is kinda odd. They don’t want the war to stop. Or rather, they don’t want specifically the genocide and ethnic cleansing of the native indigenous people to stop. They want the war to end because it’s destroyed the economy of the occupied territories. They wanna go back to brunch. With a side of stealing land from the natives and the occasional lynching of Palestinians.

    They don’t like war when they can feel it at home.

      It really is incredible that this is what got people in the streets, not the dead and dying children.

      Generally, yes. This is an anti-war protest from an economic perspective, not a moral one. Their demands will not liberate Palestine, but provide a much-needed temporary reprieve, if met. Still, it is good that the genocidal menace hurts, and is facing internal fracturing.
