The recognition came amid an international push to end the violence that began with a Hamas-led attack in Israel that killed 1,200 people and took more than 250 others hostage on Oct. 7, 2023.
It’s just nuts that organisations like the CBC continue to parrot this sort of thing, like Gaza hasn’t been under violent occupation for generations.
Longer than my grandparents have been alive have the Palestinians been targeted.
The CBC is correct though. The international push was primarily motivated by the Israeli response to oct 7 specifically. If things had continued as they were before oct 7, I doubt we’d see this kind of international push. Sure, there was activism, but it was not to the scale we’ve seen since oct 7.
