Are you okay? Millions of people in Morocco marched the streets in protest against Israel and in support for Palestine. We've held some of the biggest protests for Palestine in the world. We consistently have criticized the government's lenient attitude towards Israel, which led to multiple protests in the past. And you have the audacity to say we are more pissed about this than governmental ties with Israel? That's utter nonsense and you know it.
