Here in chile the pro Palestine posture is razonably transversal and condemnation to Israel is normal to see.

Yeah, it's interesting how the rest of the world gets a pass. It's almost as if they have to forcibly, manipulate the pro-zionism mindset in the country whose tax payers fund this genocide in its entirety. Hopefully this country can rid itself of that mental disorder and Israel can start taking the responsibility it should have in the beginning when it begged the world for their own safe space where people already lived.

I'm not sure what you mean by "the rest of the world gets a pass". What are you trying to express? Thanks!

In the Adelaide CBD (Australia) last Sunday there was a 1,000+ people protest in support of innocent Palestinians, and a 5-6 people protest in support of Israel.

Most all protests I see in the US are pro Palestine. Though there are some pro Israel protests.

It’s mainly the media and politicians that are pro Israel, not the protesters.

With reasons well grounded in Chilean history, as I’m sure you may know. I’ve had a very eye opening time with this book, The Palestine Laboratory, free right now from the publisher. The first chapter is a pretty intense recounting of the ways that the Israeli government and military industry were materially supportive to Pinochet’s regime.
