    Do they have tiki torches? Are they talking about replacing Arabs?

    Because holy shit do these people not have any sense of self awareness.

      People outside the US do not care about that. This is probably in response to Iranians chanting “Death to Israel”. The Middle East has a problem with chanting “death to” things. It’s pretty messed up over there.

          The Iranians support Palestinians with weapons (not food though). Hamas is a proxy of Iran, and I believe the same religion. There are very few Persians in Palestine. It would make no sense to chant directly against Iran.

          As with everything in the Middle East, it’s complicated.

            Hamas is Sunni, Iran is Shiite. They’re aligned out of convenience more than religion. The Middle East isn’t actually that complicated, the idea that it is so complicated is peddled to scare people from actually understanding the region and forming their own conclusions, usually out of fear that the listener might not find a genocidal European colony to be “the good guys”.

              Ah, then it makes sense that Iran provides no real support to the Palestinians. They’re a different religion, so the Iranian regime only has an interest in using them against Israel.

        You’d have a point except this march takes place every year and every year there’s an outbreak of violence around the temple mount. Also there are Israeli Arabs (born and raised in Israel ) who funnily enough are Israeli citizens and have fuck all to do with Iran.
