Tonight's protest for Gaza outside Assen railway station. No pot banging tonight. Instead we serenaded train passengers with a version of Bella Ciao adapted by Joke Kaviaar.

Thursday's protest for Gaza outside Assen railway station.
Israel's genocide against Palestinians continues unabated.
Israel's aggression towards the citizens of its "allies" also continues, as seen with the abuse of hundreds of people in the aid flotilla 1000 km from Israel.
Our nations continue to ignore the disgusting behaviour of the Israeli state.
What can we do ? Protest and Boycott. Boycott Israel. Don't buy Israeli goods. Don't allow Israeli entrants to take part in international events.

Today's protest for Gaza in Groningen.
The Israeli genocide of Palestinians unfortunately continues as our attention is being diverted by other atrocities.

This evening's protest for Gaza in Assen railway station. We were indoors reading names and ages of those killed by Israel in their genocide of the Gazan people, and handing out information about what is happening and the organised boycott of Israeli businesses.

Today's demo for Gaza outside Assen railway station.
A lot of people joined in today, waving, thumbs up, making heart signs, taking information leaflets or their own photos of posters, even borrowing pots from us so they could join ib.
It is clear that the majority of people are opposed to Israel's genocidal behaviour, but our politicians don't seem to have received the message loudly enough. Hopefully our pot banging helped to get the message through.

Today's protest in Groningen. This happens on the Waagstraat between 13:00 and 14:00, every other Saturday (odd / oneven week numbers).
It's a quiet demo, not a noisy demo like at the railway station.
If you want to join in you just need to turn up. There are lots of signs that you can borrow if you want to hold one.
Everyone is friendly.
I know that many people feel unable to do anything about the awful situation in Palestine. Protesting and refusing Israeli products are two of the best things that individuals can do.

Today's pot-banging protest at Assen railway station. A group of us gathered as we do every Thursday evening from 18:00 until 19:00.

There's very obviously more interest from the public now than there was a few weeks ago. Several people came up and asked for leaflets rather than having to be offered one. Other people walked past doing thumb's up and peace signs with their hands.

Israel has for a long time managed to convince people in the west that they are somehow the victims of their own violence. Their recent war crimes have been so blatant that they have lifted the veils from many people's eyes.

Everyone can now see for themselves who the real terrorist state of the middle east is.

Today's protest at Assen station was an emergency action in response to the Israeli introduction of a death sentence for Palestinians only.

We were indoors with placards, and a recording which sounds a lot like the usual public address system in the railway station, but which informs people about the ongoing genocide.

Don't buy Israeli goods !
Join a protest in your area !

Today's protest for Palestine. Some of the group were at a larger protest elsewhere today, so we were fewer in number but just as determined as usual.
This week the genocidal Israelis again exposed their horrible behaviour with their disgusting treatment of hunanitarians delivering aid. What we all saw was the level of violence that they publish themselves to garner support. It takes some sickness to think that would show them in a good light.
The second photo is from last week.

Today's protest for Palestine in Groningen. It's a quiet protest held every two weeks. Lots of people received information or already knew about what was happening and were therefore positive about the demo.

This evening a group of us once more protested for Palestine and against the Israeli genocide outside Assen railway station. This happens outside all Dutch railway stations (or at least many of them) from 18:00 until 19:00, every Thursday.
Thinking as always of the many people suffering from Israel's and the USA's genocidal violence, be they in Gaza, the West Bank, Iran, Lebanon, Syria or any other land undergoing war and occupation.

Pot banging for Gaza tonight outside Assen railway station.
Genocidal Israel's appetite for death is enormous.
Palestinians are still kept in a state of suffering, while the Israelis also attack Iran and Lebanon. All of this is assisted by the USA, which under the current regime is even further off the rails than is usual for that continuously war mongering country.

Tonight's protest for Gaza outside Assen railway station.
We're seeing more positive reactions as time passes.
Every time Israel commits violence against surrounding nations this makes it more obvious just how awful the apartheid state of Israel actually is. People are noticing.
Deaths continue while each new attack removes the last from the news headlines, so it's important that we continue to remind people that the violence against Palestinians has never ceased.

Pot banging for Gaza outside Assen railway station again tonight. We wouldn't have to do it if the Israeli's could behave in a civilized way and stopped murdering Palestinians.

Pot banging for Gaza outside Assen station this evening.
Palestinean people are still being killed, still being starved, and many still have no shelter.
(There was apparently an attempt to cancel tonight's protest, because of the weather warning, but those of us who don't use fascist owned social media didn't receive the notification)

After a two week break, we were supposed to be protesting for Gaza at Assen railway station again today.
No-one else was there.
It's cold and icy. That's presumably why people stayed away.
While a million other things have been in the news since we last met to protest about Israel's disgusting behaviour towards Palestinians, an end to the genocide was not one of them. Israel is instead using the fog of other issues to carry on their genocidal behaviour while people are distracted by the other issues.

The conditions under which Gaza's population is heading into winter are inhumane. But not enough people in my country are paying attention to the issue.

Tonight's was the last pot banging demo outside Assen station this year.

I'm hoping for some kind of Christmas miracle so we don't have to return on the 8th of January.

Unfortunately, with the plight of Palestinians having been pushed out of the news there doesn't seem to be much chance of a rapid improvement so I expect we'll be back next year to continue to try to raise awareness.

Pot banging for Gaza tonight at Assen station. The genocide continues, while Gazans try to survive in patched up tents, on flooded land, in winter, on limited rations because the Israelis are still starving the population.
This must stop.

Two weeks have passed since I posted a photo of the weekly pot-banging demonstration, but that doesn't mean it wasn't happening. Last Thursday, and the Thursday before I was amongst those protesting against the continuing Israeli genocide of Palestinians at the station in Assen. The "ceasefire" hasn't stopped the killing. Hundreds of Palestinians continue to die at the hands of the Israeli army in Gaza and at the hands of the "settlers" in the West Bank.
This must stop.
There's not a lot of that people living in Western nations can do directly, but we can very easily commit to never buying Israeli goods and services, or those from companies linked to Israel, and by voting for politicians who will try to raise the subject internationally.

Weekly demonstration for Palestine by the station in Assen. Yesterday was UN World Children's Day so as well as making a noise we also had a reading of the names of children who have been murdered by Israel. Over the last two years, Israel has killed children in Gaza at an average rate of about one per hour. Over 20000 innocent lives cut short by the genocidal state of Israel. The horrors have not ended and nor have our protests.
From a personal point of view as a citizen of a country in Europe we have limited options, but we can all choose not to buy Israeli goods, not to support companies who trade with Israel and to vote for politicians who seek justice and who do not support Israel.

Back at Assen station yesterday evening for the weekly pot banging demonstration to support Palestinians.
Plenty of people were supportive yesterday. They took leaflets, joined us to bang pots for a bit, or just waved support.

Today's quiet demo for Gaza in Groningen. These demos take place from 13:00 until 14:00, every other Saturday in Groningen, on the odd numbered weeks (oneven weken). We stand quietly with signs while others hand out leaflets with information about the boycott against Israel.

Pot banging again tonight in front of Assen railway station.
Israel has killed hundreds of Gazans since the "ceasefire" began. They're still refusing to allow adequate quantities of food and medicine into Gaza.
This must stop. The world must act.

Having got wet cycling through the rain and with the lower temperature going into winter it felt a bit cold for pot banging outside the station tonight, but I didn't mind. Life is easy for me. I have a warm home to come back to, unlike the people in Gaza who's homes have been destroyed and who are still being bombed by the genocidal Israeli state despite the so called #ceasefire

Pot banging again outside Assen station this evening. It's clear that there is no end on sight to the awful treatment of Palestinians at the hands of Israelis.

Tonight we not only made a noise with pans but also sang Bella Ciao together a few times, which made a pleasant change.

What have we seen so far today with the so-called "ceasefire" ? 70 more Gazans killed by the genocidal state of Israel. So we met again earlier this evening to bang pots and make a noise.

It's mostly a peaceful demonstration, but today we were visited by a crazy Zionist man who marched up to us, started arguing loudly with one of the women at the demo and and then started to shove another woman. Luckily this was seen by two police who very efficiently told him to get lost.

The genocide continues.

Israel just illegally intercepted the sumud flotilla in international waters.

The Netherlands is still not taking any real action against Israel.

Pot banging tonight in Assen and every Thursday by the railway station at 18:00 until we have justice.

Tonight's pot banging demo in Assen. This is the tenth week in a row that we've gathered outside the railway station on Thursday at 18:00.

Every week we reach more people. A few passers by join in each week, which is always nice to see. The message is spreading.

Free Free Palestine!
