Just wondering, if I would hold up a sign with ‘go isreal, continue the amazing work you do!’, would that get me arrested? Surely i’d get beat up but i mean what would the lawmakers think of that? Would it be different if the sign would say ‘go isreal, murder those innocent families’ or ‘go isreal, your genocide rules!’ (am i allowed to call it a genocide if i’m not against it?)
Or you you could just, you know… protest against Israel and pro Palestinians without explicitly showing your allegiance to terrorist organizations such as Hamas.
the IOF is a terrorist organization. much bigger, more prolific and active than Hamas as well. literally a war criminal organization. funny how you never hear people getting arrested for supporting the IOF though.

Are there any pro “IOF” demonstrations anywhere?

Holding up a sign in support of a terrorist organization will (hopefully) get you arrested.

You might argue that “Palestine Action” should not be defined as a terrorist organization.

You can hold up a sign supporting them to protest the designation. You will be arrested however. That’s just what happens.

Personally I’m not so sure that Palestinians will benefit from all that.
