The disturbing reason why pro-Palestine protesters won’t stop

There are times when shining a light in a particular direction in a particular way illuminates a truth that was intimated, but not entirely clear.  

We now have such a light shining on the protests that engulf our cities each week, disrupt the peaceful atmosphere of our multicultural communities, and claim not to be anti-Jewish or antisemitic, merely pro-Palestinian.    

The protests called for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas – and we now have a ceasefire. They called for a withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza – and we now have a timetable for that. And they called for an increase of humanitarian aid into the territory – and that is now happening.  

Yet the protests are continuing. Why?  

Well, to the Jewish community and much of the wider world, the reason is clear. The protests were never just about a ceasefire, an Israeli withdrawal or humanitarian aid, since if they were, the protestors would be putting down their banners and going home. And very many of the protestors are still there.  

Part of a long-term strategy fed by radical Islam and its unholy alliance with the far Left, the protests seek to eradicate from the world its only Jewish state.  

In a world with 57 Muslim countries and a single Jewish one, in a region with 315 million Muslims and just 7 million Jews in Israel (in a country of 10 million), and in a Middle East of 9.9 million square kilometres with just 21,000 for Israel (that’s less than a third the size of Tasmania), the ethnic cleansing of Jews from the region is the protestors’ goal.
