By Pip Hinman and Alex Bainbridge of Green LeftMore than 200,000 people took the streets across Australia on Saturday in a national day of action demanding that the Labor government sanctions Israel and stops the two-way arms trade. It comes after 300,000 people marched, in driving rain, across Sydney Harbour Bridge on August 3 to demand the same. Palestine solidarity groups across the country are coordinating their plans as Israel’s illegal deliberate starvation policy is delivering its expected results. Protests were organised in more than 40 cities and towns– a first in nearly two years since the genocidal war began.
