Sydney, November 27 (RHC)-- In Sydney, Australia, protests have been held weekly, demanding action from the Australian government regarding the crisis in Gaza and Lebanon.   The demonstrations have gained momentum following the ICC arrest warrant against the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.

Every Sunday, people of all ages gather in Sydney to voice their concern over the ongoing crisis in Gaza and Lebanon, marching through the streets. They chant slogans such as: "While you're shopping, bombs are dropping", urging Australians to reflect on the devastation overseas.

These protests have garnered significant support for the Palestinian cause, with momentum growing across the country. Following the ICC arrest warrant issued against the Israeli prime minister, protesters are demanding action from the Australian government which is a signatory to the Rome Statute.

Demonstrators in Sydney have gathered once again, continuing their weekly protests in solidarity with Palestinians and Lebanese communities.

Protesters say that Israel's actions constitute a campaign of massacres aimed at seizing more land and establishing regional supremacy.  They argue that the violence is part of a deliberate strategy to forcibly displace Palestinians and erase their identity from their homeland.

Many Jewish Australians also join these weekly demonstrations, firmly disassociating themselves from Zionism.  They emphasize that their support is rooted in a shared commitment to human rights and justice, and reject the idea that the conflict inherently divides Jews and Palestinians.

Peter Slezak, a professor at the UNSW University in Sydney, said:  "The Jews who are supporting Israel have become really shamed by this, and they have to make a choice. You know the slogan, which I repeat here is many Jews are saying: 'Not in our name.'   Well, Jews have to make a choice.  You know, there's another slogan, 'Silence is complicity.'
