SDJW staff report
New Zealand’s One Community Chronicle reports that on Saturday, Oct. 10, pro-Hamas forces will conduct a protest in Auckland over Israel’s “genocidal” policies toward the Palestinians. Anti-Hamas forces will conduct a counter-protest describing Oct. 7, 2023, as the worst day in Jewish history since the Holocaust.
Counter-protest organizer Lucy Rogers stated, “What Hamas did on October 7 2023 was obscene. 1450 Israelis a majority of whom were civilians were tortured, raped, set on fire, physically ripped apart while they were still alive, kidnapped and murdered. Parents were murdered in front of their children, children were murdered in front of their parents.
“The Civil Commission report of this year found that Hamas after ripping people apart had sex with pieces of their corpses, recorded it on video, and then posted footage to the victims’ own Facebook pages using their mobile phones.”
Juliet Moses, president of the New Zealand Jewish Council, will also be a speaker at the counter protest.
