Activists should know they are marching to destroy Israel
It was entirely predictable. Once the Israeli Defence Force started the task of destroying the ability of Hamas to commit atrocities in Israel and fire rockets at civilian targets, the activist political left in the West, antisemites and elements of the media would quickly turn on Israel. It’s not just foreign policy wonks like me who thought it was predictable, more to the point it was the Hamas political leadership.
