Protestors have taken to the streets of Buenos Aires calling for the release of all political prisoners and demanding an end to pro-Israeli behavior.

Ahlul Bayt News Agency, Thousands of people gathered in Buenos Aires to demand the release of all political prisoners, specially that of Roberto Martino a civil rights leader who was detained during 2009 anti-Zionism protests, reported PressTV.

"He is being oppressed both by Argentina's justice system and Israel," commented one protestor.

Zionists are said to have a strong presence in Argentina. Tensions between Zionists and social human rights groups first arose when Lebanon was invaded by Israel in 2006.

Roberto Martino did not take part in last year's violent anti-Zionists protests. Zionists used weapons against the unarmed pro-Palestinian supporters, but it was Martino, who was detained for organizing the peaceful protests.
