Tens of thousands of protesters gathered in cities across America on Saturday to show their support for Palestine and denounce Israel's retaliation in Gaza. The demonstrations, organized in cities such as Washington DC, New York, Nashville, Cincinnati, Las Vegas, and San Francisco, aimed to call for a ceasefire and an end to the siege in the region. The crowds chanted slogans such as "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free," expressing their solidarity with the Palestinian cause.

The demonstrations attracted a diverse range of participants, including student organizations, labor unions, and antiwar campaigns, as well as prominent figures like rapper Macklemore. Speaking at the rally in Washington DC, Macklemore called Israel's actions a "genocide" and emphasized the need for people to speak out against the violence.

While most Americans express support for Israel in its fight against Hamas, recent polls show growing concern about military involvement in the Middle East and increasing support for humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians. The protests in America underline the broadening support for Palestine and the demand for a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
