Lest we forget, our soldiers sacrificed their lives fighting against injustice during WW1 and WW2. To protest against the Israeli injustice on Armistice Day is both logical and respectful.

Armistice, marking the end of the First World War, began at 11 am on 11 November 1918. Remembrance Day, observed in Commonwealth member states since then, honors armed forces members who died in the line of duty. This day is also marked by war remembrances in several non-Commonwealth countries.

Embracing British values implies standing against injustice, a driving force behind ongoing protests. While causing inconvenience to some, it's crucial to acknowledge the fundamental right to protest. Soldiers' sacrifices in battling injustice make these protests a continuation of that crucial fight.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's refusal of a ceasefire for hostage negotiations has triggered protests worldwide, including outside the Knesset by families of the hostages. They demand Netanyahu's resignation and the establishment of a more accountable government.

Israel's holding of 1,200 Palestinians without charge, coupled with the refusal of a ceasefire for hostage negotiations, raises serious concerns regarding human rights and public support.

A ceasefire provides a crucial window of opportunity for diplomatic efforts to secure the release of hostages in Gaza and Israel. By halting hostilities, it creates a more conducive environment for negotiations and the delivery of humanitarian aid.

Furthermore, the use of pictures of hostages as propaganda by Israel and their supporters to promote military action is ethically problematic and highly inappropriate. This practice exploits vulnerable individuals and contributes to the dehumanization of the situation.
