Dear friends ,
these kind of demonstrations are not helpful for the palestinian people.
this is supposed to be a demonstration against violence, and yet it is a violent act in itself - how can it achieve this puropse?
there are many ways to demonstrate in way that will be more effective , for example, a march trough the streets with people wearing black as a sighn of mourning for the victims, in complete silence, and as a symbol for the "black flag" that hangs above the actions of isreal.
i believe a very important thing to understand is - what of the porpuse of such an act - who is it meant to influence?
i think under the current situation actions should be taken with the aim of infuencing the israeli people to stop the occupation - if that is the case, then certainly these kind of actions are not helpful, they seems too much full of hate, too violent. no, this is not the way - the end and the means must be the same - peaceful end can be achieved only by peavceful means
