Only last year, the « Comité Pour Une Paix Juste Au Proche-Orient » caused excitement when the demands for equal rights were drowned out by « Free Palestine » calls. Upon request, the JIF platform said that it was « solidarity with intersectional feminist struggles, in Luxembourg and worldwide ». “We were only there at the front of the protest because police officers told us where we have to go. We didn't plan that in this way, ”said a Palestine supporter at the time to the“ Luxembourg word ”.
