Quote from: TDoS on Apr 29, 2024, 12:05 PMI wonder why I haven't seen this type of title elsewhere, perhaps reflecting a similar sentiment but with only a minor word change to reflect how others might feel?
Perhaps because none of the protesters hold up any signs reading that they are pro-Hamas or have any slogans or chants saying they are pro-Hamas? AFAIK no protest leaders have endorsed Hamas, although there may be some members of Hamas who have attended the demonstrations.
Do you see any signs supporting Hamas in this crowd?
Unless the news agency could get verifiable proof that the demonstrators were supporting Hamas, they would be wide open to a lawsuit. As it is, even saying the protests are anti-semitic is not accurate, though there are anti-semites attending some of them no doubt.
The goals of the protests are to end the occupation of Gaza by the Israeli military, to force divestment of companies doing business with Israel, and to have self-ruling Goobermint for the Palestinians. The goal of Hamas is destruction of the state of Israel, which again some protesters may support but isn't an express goal of the protests as it is of Hamas.
