<p><strong>By <a href="https://www.palestinechronicle.com/writers/palestine-chronicle-staff" title="Display all articles for Palestine Chronicle Staff">Palestine Chronicle Staff</a></strong></p><p><span>Soon
 after Palestinians buried their dead, 33 to be exact, following the 
5-day Israeli war on Gaza, they held a parade to emphasize that nothing 
has changed, and that their right to resist the Israeli occupation will 
not be negotiated. </span></p>
<p><span>Thousands of Palestinians took part in a massive rally 
organized by the Islamic Jihad in Palestine (IJP) movement in Gaza on 
Friday. </span></p>
<p><span>Other rallies also took place in Jenin, in the West Bank, Lebanon and, even Syria. </span></p>
<p><span>The banner which hovered over all of these events was ‘Avenging
 the Free’, the same name that the Gaza Resistance had used to dub its 
resistance battle against Israeli. </span></p>
<p><span>Tens of thousands of Palestinians, not only Islamic Jihad 
supporters, but Palestinians from all walks of life, gathered in 
Al-Katiba Square in Gaza City after the main Friday noon prayer. </span></p>
<p><span>They gathered to mourn their victims; but also to celebrate their resistance. </span></p>
<p><span>Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, starting on May 9, killed top 
leaders of the military wing of the IJP, the Al-Quds Brigades. But it 
also killed members of their families, including children, their 
neighbors, and other civilians. </span></p>
<p><span>Israel celebrated that its attacks were precise and successful.
 The posters of the many children and women at the rally, however, told a
 different story.  </span></p>
