HALIFAX, N.S. — Hundreds of demonstrators waving Palestinian flags and chanting “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” marched through downtown Halifax on Sunday afternoon.“Jews can continue to exist, the Zionist ideology cannot,” said Yara Jamal of Free Palestine Halifax which organized the march.

During the pro-Israel demonstration two weeks ago, participants carried posters with pictures of civilians killed by Hamas and of women being dragged away to be held as hostages. Titled United Against Terrorism, the demonstration’s flyer referred to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Hamas as terrorists.
