Ape Goes to Victoria Gaza Solidarity March and Rally Day 197 April 20, 2024
Enjoined about two hundred Victorians behind the Legislature Buildings to express a collective outrage at the continued genocide in Gaza, (and increasingly ferocious pogroms in the West Bank and Jerusalem) and the Western governments' refusal to step in to stop the killing.

Ape Goes to Victoria Gaza Solidarity March and Rally Day 189 April 13, 2024
Was there in spirit today, as Christina attended and recorded the event on the lawn of the B.C. Legislative Buildings today. She reports about 200 Victorians attending in solidarity, while some dozen or so counter-demonstrators were there to express sympathy with the Israeli state as it's murderous campaign of genocide and dispossession against the Palestinian people of Gaza and increasingly in the West Bank grinds on.
Today also marked a turning point perhaps in the situation in the region, with Iran, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, and Yemen retaliating together against Israel's illegal bombing and assassination campaigns that have plagued their respective nations for so long. -
