Palestinians weigh in on Israeli street protests. Many Palestinians say they don't see a place — or seek a place — for themselves in the ongoing pro-democracy protests, whose leaders want to maintain their movement's mainstream appeal.

#Bligh noted that several fundamental #civilrights, such as the right to #equality, #FreedomOfExpession & others, are not delineated in any of #Israel’s quasi-constitutional Basic Laws, but have become inherent facts of #Israeli legal landscape owing to rulings by the High Court. The court derives such rights interpretively from those Basic Laws, he noted, and primarily Basic Law: #HumanDignity & #Liberty." #palastine #apartheidisrael #onelawforall #israel

பாலஸ்தீன மக்களை அழிக்கும் இஸ்ரேலை ஆதரித்தால் அவர் சங்கி என்பதன் அறிகுறிகளில் ஒன்று - தோழர் மதுக்கூர் ராமலிங்கம் #CPIM #IsraeliAttacks #Palastine #SheikhJarrah #Netanyahu #StandwithPalestine @MathukkurR@twitter.com

'இஸ்ரேல்' உருவாக்கப்பட்டதற்கு முன்பே (73 ஆண்டுகளுக்கு முன்) பாலஸ்தீனத்தில் கிறிஸ்தவர்கள், முஸ்லீம்கள், யூதர்கள் என எல்லோருமே நல்லுறவுடன் ஒன்றாக வாழ்ந்தார்கள். பாலஸ்தீன கிறிஸ்தவ சமூகம்தான் உலகின் மிகப் பழமையான கிறிஸ்தவ சமூகம். #IsraeliAttacks #Palastine #SheikhJarrah #Netanyahu

இஸ்ரேலியர்களும், பாலஸ்தீனியர்களும் வெறும் மதத்திற்காக சண்டையிட்டுக் கொள்ளவில்லை. 'இஸ்ரேல்' பாலஸ்தீனியர்களை ஒடுக்குகிறது. இதற்கும் மதத்திற்கும் தொடர்பில்லை.#IsraeliAttacks #Palastine #SheikhJarrah #Netanyahu #StandwithPalestine
