Mississauga pro-Palestinian rally 18 May 2021

On May 18, 2021 thousands participated in a pro-Palestinian rally organized by the Palestine House at the Celebration Square in Mississauga, Ontario.

Here is the Palestine House’s statement:

We are calling for mass mobilization in Celebration Square, Mississauga, on TUESDAY at 7:00 p.m. in the heart of the Palestinian community in the GTA, to protest the ongoing ethnic cleansing of our people in the homeland. Protest against Israeli Apartheid! Protest for SANCTIONS on Israel! Liberation is within our reach. #SaveSheikhJarrah #GazaUnderAttack

A speaker at the rally recited a poem. Here is a portion of it (originally in Arabic):

We are your youth, Palestine

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

A gift from Allah and even more

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

Oh Oh Palestine

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

I swear by Allah that I’ll carry out an [armed] operation

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

Against the Zionists

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

So I will raise the flag of freedom

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

In the name of Arab [City of] Al-Quds [Jerusalem]

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

Oh mom, give me the rifle

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

And give me 500 [bullets]

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

The Kalashnikov [AK47 rifle] is ready

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine

Behind me the [suicidal] fighters [ready to sacrifice their lives for the sake of Allah]

[Crowd:] Oh Oh Palestine
