There were around 400 people there and we made a colourful and noisy sight as we walked in groups of 20 from the mosque on Nelson Street to Marischal Square.
There we heard stirring calls to action from Imam Ibrahim, Dr Sanaa, Jonathan Russell from CND and Imam Molana Ghulam Hurr Shabbiri, who travelled from Glasgow to be a part of our rally.
It was most inspiring to hear from a number of younger people, reflecting the young people leading the unity action across Palestine. Eleven year old Mustafa was moved to read a poem called "Gaza's Child" after he learned about the impact of the occupation on Palestinian children.
Mariam, a student from Egypt narrated a story she had made up - an analogy to explain the background to the situation in Palestine. Rema Harbi, a student teacher beautifully sang "Mawal" an Arabic poem speaking of love for Palestine and the grief felt at the innocent Palestinians killed. Then Yasmine Benaissa, another student and member of our organising group issued a call to arms, echoing the warning that the ceasefire in Gaza did not mean that the struggle was over.
Another young person, Kareem, from Palestine asked to speak to thank all those in attendance for coming out to support his people and his country.
Here is my introduction.
