Talk:International protests over the 2021 Israel–Palestine crisis

Change article name

The current name implies that the protests were peace protests which were against the conflict. However, the article is a timeline of protests relating to the crisis. A better name would be "Timeline of protests relating to the 2021 Israel-Palestine crisis" User:DontWannaDoThis^≠ 07:21, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

For May 15, could somebody add the following stuff to the section:

• In Kashmir, the Jammu and Kashmir Police arrests 21 people in Kashmir for organizing protests in support of Palestine. [1]
• Police in Paris, France uses tear gas and water cannons against pro-Palestinian protesters. This comes a day after a French court banned protests in support of Palestine. [2]

I think this can be added for May 15 as well (in the London section): In Central London, protesters gathered at the Israeli embassy. Former Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn also speaks at the protest. [4] [5] Neocon1 (talk) 22:01, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

For May 16, I request that someone adds that protests occurred on Michigan Avenue in Chicago and Public Square in Cleveland. [10] I would also add that protests happened in Glasgow, Scotland ([11].

For example, I would say “In the United States, protesters gather at Michigan Avenue in Chicago and Public Square in Cleveland in solidarity with Palestine.”

I would also add that there were demonstrations in Helsinki as well ([12]).

I would also add this: In Berlin, violent confrontations break out during a protest against Israel air strikes in the Gaza Strip, with a Israeli TV reporter being attacked ([13]).

—Neocon1 (talk) 19:47, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

 Not done for now: WP:PROSELINE suggests that there's no real reason to simply list every protest that happened. If it can be written in a better way (if sources report that "multiple protests occured internationally..."), maybe, but as suggested I don't think it's really helpful. See also WP:NOTNEWS. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 20:11, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

@RandomCanadian: Regarding the section about May 16, may I request that these things be added:

• In Berlin, violent confrontations break out during a protest against Israel air strikes in the Gaza Strip, with a Israeli TV reporter being attacked ([14]).
• Protesters gather at Michigan Avenue in Chicago and Public Square in Cleveland in solidarity with Palestine ([15], [16]).
• Montreal Police deploys tear gas to disperse a protest in downtown Montreal, which saw pro-Israel protesters clashing with pro-Palestinian protesters ([17]). Feel free to reword this if necessary.

If I find any notable protests, I will request that it be added to the article or add it to this list. —Neocon1 (talk) 21:47, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

Request to add a protest of support to Palestine in Montenegro

A few thousand people gathered in the town of Bijelo Polje in north Montenegro on May 16th in a rally of support for Palestinians. Source - https://www.vijesti.me/vijesti/drustvo/539575/protest-podrske-palestini-u-bijelom-polju

List of protests?

Should this article be moved to List of protests over the 2021 Israel-Palestine crisis, or just use prose to explain that there have been protests for both sides? Right now it looks like a list of any protest that gets local media coverage, which seems to be in contravention of WP:NOTNEWS. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:29, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

May 23, In Karachi Pakistan, a huge rally was organized by Jamaat-e-Islami; the marchers were waiving Palestinian flags, and chanting slogans of "Labaik ya Aqsa", and "Down with Israel". The rally attended by tens of thousands of men, and women-some of them carrying infants-was the biggest show of solidarity in Pakistan since the recent Israeli escalation. Covering five kilometers of two-way path of the road, the rally was attended by the leaders of different Sunni, Shia and Christian organizations while telephone message by Ismail Haniyeh, the head of Hamas was aired at the occasion. https://www.dawn.com/news/1625268/huge-crowds-voice-solidarity-with-palestine-in-karachi https://tribune.com.pk/story/2301203/just-struggle-massive-crowds-voice-solidarity-with-palestine-in-karachi
