It may die eventually, but itโ€™s not going to die in Gaza or because of Gaza/Isreal. Give it a few months and there will be another war to focus on and we will see fewer articles about Gaza, just like we see fewer articles about Ukraine.

In places where displaying the Palestinian is banned or restricted (Israel, Germany, etc) people display images of watermelons instead to circumvent those bans.

Thank you! I was wondering if it was some sort of Unicode mismatch or something, lol

Displaying the Palestinian flag is not illegal in Germany. That's misinformation.

In case you're interested what is forbidden: https://www.mdr.de/nachrichten/deutschland/politik/pro-palaestina-demonstration-verboten-illegal-100.html

Edit: someone answered further down. It's a replacement for places where their flag is banned.

Uh... Why is Palestine's flag a watermelon in your post?

๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ผ of course. Pelosi's visit was just the warm up. The election of the imperialist backed DPP is too obvious a sign.

I can't wait for Taiwan to become an independent... corpse.
