From what I know the biggest concentration of Israeli Palestinians outside of Jerusalem is in the North, so they’re probably scared shitless that if they say anything Bibi will accuse them of being Hezbollah militants and send the police after them
no, I’m asking about Israeli Israelis. Where are the ordinary city-dwellers getting up and marching to protest the ongoing slaughter, as you’ll find in just about every other city in the world?
It’s good to hear that there are Israelis who have the courage to protest against what Israel is doing in Gaza. I have not seen this in the news so thank you for the link.
Yes, I saw that, but there was also a section in the Wikipedia page entitled “Anti-war protests”, and some of those look like they are motivated by concern over the slaughter.
Israelis are not monolith and certainly many do care greatly.
So where are the protests about it?

I saw an article about just that last night, but if you can imagine, it’s rather hard to find it under all the other protest news…
You’re expecting to be spoonfed by lemmy?
I’d expect at least one news report anywhere about it, if there were a significant protest movement.
Maybe Wikipedia can help. (And maybe not, if your opinion is already solid)

Did you read that page? Some of the protests were
Protest against humanitarian aid
Pro-war protests
The rest were to get the hostages back. Nothing remotely about peace or anti-genocide.

Did you read that page yet?
Some of the protests were
Protest against humanitarian aid
Pro-war protests
Nothing remotely about peace or anti-genocide, or even to protest against what Israel is doing in Gaza, in fact:
The reason you have not seen “Israelis who have the courage to protest against what Israel is doing in Gaza” in the news is that it’s not happening.
Jews, on the other hand, have been getting locked up in droves (and since the beginning of the latest offensive) protesting Israel’s actions.
