As exemplified previously in the thread "Jews that are anti-Israel: An ideology that goes back a century", the ultimate source of the anti-Zionist propaganda that the mainstream media distributes is from the far-left community. The same general slogans have been perpetuated for decades, and applicable Palestinian militant groups over that time have incorporated these literary intellectual products into the arguments of their own mission. The article below is from an outlet of the Socialist Workers Party, which is a proud and upfront Marxist organization in the UK.

Hundreds of thousands march in London as Israel escalates genocide
https://socialistworker.co.uk/palestine-...otal-phase

INTRO: On the 700th day of Israel’s genocide on Saturday, 200,000 people marched in London to demand the British state breaks its ties with the terror state.

First-time marcher Sarah told Socialist Worker, “I’m not entirely sure what’s going on, but I know it’s a genocide and I know that needs to be stopped. It’s empowering seeing this many people here. It makes it feel like we can actually stop this horror.”

“This is the 30th national march since Israel began its genocide,” Palestine Solidarity Campaign director Ben Jamal told Socialist Worker.

“It’s part of our wider mobilisations and fundamental to the work is to undertake boycott and divestment campaigns. We are starting to see the results of those campaigns here, but globally Israel is more isolated than any time in its history.”

He added, “Labour is under increasing pressure. They know that they are isolated in the court of public opinion. They’re becoming globally isolated. But they are still making decisions framed around a continuation of the policy enacted by successive British governments all the way back to 1948 and before.

“We have seen a shift in its rhetoric. We’ve seen actions—which I would say are completely inadequate. They include the conditional recognition of statehood, the suspension of some arms licenses, some sanctions on some of the most egregious members of the settler movement.

“But what we need is straightforward, comprehensive sanctions, full arms embargo. We need effectively a shift to say what we are dealing with here is a pariah state that for 76 years has practised the system of apartheid and is now practising the crime of genocide.”

Shaziah from Ummah Action 4 Gaza described Israel’s assault on Gaza as a “pivotal moment”. She told Socialist Worker that the “Arab region has been carved up to enable the establishment of the Zionist entity”.

“What we see today is a legacy of that order—do we carry on being subservient for a Western agenda that protects the Zionist entirety?” (MORE - details)

It is possible that the vast majority of protesters are paid, communists or antisemitic .. it is also possible that many simply think the IDF (therefore Israel) have gone too far. While the response may seem 'logical' there's a certain absence of logic in failing to police the border in the first place. I understand the person responsible for over a thousand Israeli deaths and now over 60,000 Palestinians killed .. was sacked.
