The Marches Were Never about Peace. They Were about the Destruction of Israel
(Telegraph-UK) Stephen Daisley - Since Oct. 7, the pro-Palestinian lobby has enjoyed unprecedented success in manipulating the media coverage of Israel's war to free its hostages from Gaza. The world swallowed without question the claim that Israel was deliberately manufacturing a famine to wipe out Palestinian children. Yet, the only massacres or atrocities to protest were those that had been conducted by Palestinians against Israelis, and Western sympathizers were certainly not demonstrating against those. They were celebrating their victim-idols' daring slaughter of defenseless Israelis. Saturday's demonstration in London must be the first recorded example of people protesting the end of a supposed genocide. This is a movement more concerned with dismantling Israel than with building up Palestine. There is a ceasefire. The killing has stopped. Aid is going in. Who in their right mind protests that? A movement that sees peace as an impediment to vilifying Israel.
