    What event were they at?

    If it was a Jewish thing then yeah, the sign is just antagonism. edit: nope.

    There’s plenty of places to express your views on jews, Israeli’s and Gaza.

    An event hosted by the jewish community intended to try to ease tensions and rebuild cohesion after a terrorist attack directed at them isn’t an appropriate one.

    Edit: I was wrong, it’s an annual ramadan festival

      An event hosted by an explicitly-zionist (and therefore pro-genocide) organisation is always the appropriate place for protest against Israel’s genocide. No matter what they ostensibly claim the purpose of that event is.

      I think it is a Ramadan evening event from the text in the top left and the attending crowd.

      Besides that, an event being Jewish does not automatically make it immune from Israel criticism. Sadly many Jewish events are heavily involved with Zionism and recruitment for the IDF. It would need to be judged on a case by case basis.
