What does the silencing of supporters of Palestine mean for freedom of speech? | The Stream
The war on Gaza is being waged on the ground and in the realm of public opinion, putting the principles of freedom of speech to the test.
Since Hamas’ attack and Israel’s war on Gaza began in October, many demonstrations in solidarity with Palestinians were banned, critics of Israel censored, fired, or even detained for speaking their mind.
What does the silencing of supporters of Palestine say about the world right now and what are the consequences of stifling voices at times of war?
