The massive pro-Palestine demonstration in London, where 600,000 marched, brought a sense of hope for the short-term improvement of lives in Gaza and a determination to continue campaigning for solidarity with the Palestinians.
The lives of the people of Gaza would improve, they would not face imminent death from bombing or starvation, and they could begin to rebuild their lives.
