Rome, pro-Palestine and Jewish Brigade demonstrators, shouting insults. 'Assassins'
Tension between shouts, insults and firecrackers in Piazza di Porta San Paolo in Rome where two simultaneous demonstrations are underway. On one side the pro-Palestine demonstrators, around 300 people including the Palestinian student movement, antagonists and university collectives, on the other representatives of the Jewish Brigade and the Jewish community. The two sides are separated by armored police vehicles and officers in riot gear.
“Murderers, murderers” is the cry that comes from the antagonistic demonstrators.
“Genocides out of history, with resistance always”, is the slogan on the banner displayed by the pro-Palestine demonstrators in the square. “We do not tolerate the symbols of an oppressive state being waved on this day”, shout the demonstrators.
A few dozen meters below the tombstones of those killed in the resistance, the Jewish Brigade shouting “Israel, Israel”, singing the Italian anthem.
