Pro-Palestine Protests

Its a fair point, maybe black people are key voters in America and Pro Palestinian supporters are not
Why are Israeli Jews protesting against the illegal Zionist war crimes while you sit at home, comfortably complicit in the genocide?
The mission was to enter Gaza and rescue the hostages.
Biden's comments about protests and the law were interesting. Law aspects taken as stated means they can quash any demo they like as all forms would break one of the laws. Is there a way in the US. I don't know.
TBH if people are allowed to express their views our system on protests is way way better. Ok they cause some grief but if people behave sensibly which they often do other than inconveniencing others they are fine.
Protests in our Uni's - they may well get broken up. Bit different to marches.
I wonder if our system is down to the past Eg union meeting broken up viciously by the police even using horse charges. Then there is the fractures skull issue i mentioned and other injured people.

It's of interest to see how quickly these protests have become polarised along partisan faultlines in the political landscape. The UK election may not be so bad but just wait til the American elections kicks into gear.
You might, but I don't.
However I am also strongly opposed to racism, apartheid and genocide. Unlike you.
Including both death and destruction by mass bombing, and death by disease and starvation as imposed by Israel on Palestinians.
Does the above justify Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands.
Good film based on a story of a slave rebellion.
In the true story, defenceless men, women and children were murdered by slaves.
However does that legitimatise slavery.

Some people can't get their head around what the protests are about. Andy is one of them.
One aspect is obvious. The other is historic factors. Both attract people.
Actually there is yet another - international law which clearly is being broken.
Oh yes I can and do. A cabal of usual suspects who don't quite get the position and then bleat on about how unfair it is to Non Jews since 1947 / 48 is just pathetic. The non Jews have been terrorizing / invading / murdering Jews ever since.
and what has the state of Israel been doing?
it is perfectly possible to call out the death and destruction Israel has unleashed on Gaza and not excuse the appalling terrorist acts by Hamas
you seem to think otherwise, please could you explain why that is

Its not just Hamas thoguh is it. Did you miss the interview with the last Israeli woman kidnapped for the Peace Festival? She was kidnapped by Gazan's and then sold to Hamas when they took her back to Gaza along with the baying crowds supporting the atrocities. Are they all Hamas?
What about all the other Iran sponsored terrorists as well? Islamic Jhid, Hezbollah just to start and you don't think Jews don't have the right to defend themselves when a whole population declared war on them.
You fool.

Its an old adage in N. Ireland, you don't go where you are not wanted.
If others adopted the same philosophy then the world would be maybe more peaceful.
