On August 11th, tens of thousands of Arabic and Jewish Israelis rallied the streets of Tel Aviv to protest against the “nation-state law.”
According to Times of Israel the protesters numbered approximately 30,000 people.
On Tel Aviv’s Rabin Square, the protesters chanted “resist apartheid” and “we are all brothers” against the controversial law which proclaimed Israel to be the nation-state of the Jewish people. The protesters waved banners demanding equality between the Jewish and the other nationalities and religions in Israel. The Palestinian citizens of Israel protested that the law will turn the non-Jewish in the country into second-class citizens.
Aida Touma-Suleiman from the Joint List Party was cited by RT. “We are here to call for equality, for full citizenship and equal rights on individual levels and on the rational level. We are here also to say “Netanyahu, you cannot decide to continue the occupation and to deny the rights of the Palestinians only by law”,” she said.
