Saturday's huge protest against Benjamin Netanyahu's 'fascist' Nation State Bill in Tel Aviv
MORE than 100,000 Arabs and Jews demonstrated in a show of unity against the recently passed "racist" nation state law in Tel Aviv on Saturday, the second large protest in eight days.
Protesters waved Israeli and Palestinian flags demanding the resignation of Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu as the crowds called for the "fascist laws" to be scrapped saying: "We are all brothers. Jews and Arabs refuse to be divided."
Saturday's demonstration was organised by the Higher Arab Monitoring Committee and was backed by a broad range of organisations including the Hadash-Communist Party of Israel, the Coalition Against Racism in Israel and Koah La’Ovdim Worker’s Union.
