The interesting thing was that the police were clearly supportive. I was a bit surprised to see them nodding along with the talks. They didn’t join in the songs and the chanting. But from conversations I overheard, they were supportive.
I have a feeling that they aren’t going to be in the job for much longer, then.
It was a strange atmosphere to be sure. There weren’t many police, either. Not for 200 or more people. I’ve seen more police at a party. I think for all the mouth-frothing in the media, the government isn’t actually that worried about Palestinian protesters causing trouble. Maybe it’s different in major cities. Almost certainly is. Like, I said, strange atmosphere.
