Israel's violence and indignities against Palestinians are increasing. Palestinian prisoners have responded by declaring a hunger strike the day before Ramadan on March 21st and calling for Palestinians to take action in solidarity. Passover is during Ramadan this April 2023. During Ramadan many Muslim Palestinians go to Jerusalem. During Passover Palestinians are often blocked from entering Jerusalem. With that and many other factors, Miko wonders if this could be the start of a Third Intifada.
