Palestinians trying to hijack International Women's Day



Women in Gaza held a protest for International Women's Day.

Were the demanding equal rights with men? An end to honor killings? Perhaps a protest against forced headcoverings in schools?

No - this protest, organized by Hamas, was against Trump recognizing that Jerusalem was the capital of Israel.

The head of the Hamas women's movement, Raja al-Halabi, explained that the Palestinian women celebrate International Women's Day differently from the women of the world. Palestinian women have one form of protest, she explained, "dyed with the blood of the martyrs and the wives of the women and children."

In other words, if you are planning to hold a protest in Gaza, you better make sure that you are protesting something that the rulers allow you to protest. And protesting Israel and the US are always safe bets.

Al Halabi stressed that "the only option in dealing with the Zionist enemy is the armed resistance, not peaceful resistance."

Fatah also tried to use International Women's Day as a means to avoid talking about any possible problems women have in Palestinian society. They instead highlighted how important women have been in being "martyred" for fighting Israel and claim that 15,000 women have been arrested by Israel over the years and that 60 of them remain in prison. The implication is that women should be allowed to attack Jews without any consequences. Because.....women.

And of course another poster on the Fatah Facebook page shows, yet again, that Palestinians intend to destroy Israel.



This is feminism, Palestinian style.
