Syrians in Maariyah, in the western Daraa countryside, staged a protest against Israel’s continued invasion of Syrian lands on Friday.

The Israeli army, which recently set up a base in the town, reportedly fired at the protesters, injuring one of them.

Images posted by local Syrian social media accounts showed protesters carrying banners, which read: “Free, free Syria, Israel get out.”

    Last I heard, Netanyahu had a 12% approval rating. There are a ton of Israelis that don’t support this shit.

      His approval got quite high again, when they invaded Lebanon. No government since the assassination of Yitzak Rabin by a Likud fanatic ever stopped the expansion of settlements. Unfortunately there is only a small minority in Israel that is fundamentally opposed to stealing Palestinian land and murdering Palestinians. These people demonstrate and take action bravely, and often get beaten up, abused, face death threats and other attacks by the Israeli government and the mainstream society.

        Yeah approval rating never changes from election day to when they make themselves dictators. Everyone knows that. Look it up.

          I’m not saying he didn’t lose popularity, but that it doesn’t make any difference. They got what they voted for.

      Don’t get confused. The “anti-bibi” camp isn’t anti Zionist. They might think he is a corrupt leader but they see nothing wrong with the war, the death-toll or the occupation. These subjects have a much higher approval rating.
