O/T:- Palestine / Israel

[Newish Pie]

Newish Pie, I have never heard away fans either waving, or not waving flags from windows, shouting they were going to rape mothers and sisters of the home fans, and celebrating the death of babies, but I guess it is not that bad really.

To repeat once again.

I. Have. Not. Seen. The. Clip. You. Are. Talking. About.

Newish Pie, Well. Stop. Comparing. It. To. Fairly. Standard. Away. Fan. Behaviour. Then.

I. Was. Talking. About. Waving. Flags. From. Car. Windows. Which. Is. How. You. Described. It.

Like I say Newish Pie, it was just pure provocation not free speech. Driving down city streets waving Palestinian from cars, is hardly freedom of assembly.

Like. This.

Obviously designed to be a provocative post BFP. If you think it is ok for Hamas supporters to be allowed to celebrate the beheading of babies and killing of innocent citizens in Israel, on the streets of our capital. you seriously have a problem.

Have you noticed how Hamas are described as terroists by most news channels but the BBC call them militants?

Your ability to misunderstand/misrepresent and selectively ignore other people’s posts is unrivalled on this message board. It’s nothing to do with Tory/Labour I criticised a Labour politician literally a few posts ago.

The point that demagogues like Braverman and her ilk pretend not to know is that free speech/expression is a much more nuanced issue than they make out. Your struggles with people waving flags is a good illustration.

The world and Notts MAD argue about semantics while the harsh reality is enacted out costing hundreds of innocent lives. Hamas are evil and represent Iran fighting a proxy war to get rid of the state of Israel. To celebrate their actions is beyond any understanding and not something a true Palestinian supporter would do.
However, the world should not be blind to Netanyahu who is snaring Gazans by closing borders then sending in the military with its full firepower. For years now, this man and the Likud Party have been denying Palestinians the self-determination Israel signed up to in the Oslo Accord. Of all the nations to deny compassion and understanding to the dispossessed, the Jewish is the most shocking after their experiences in the Second World War.

Large_Fries, spat my coffee out reading that load of tripe from John Simpson, you seriously couldn't make it up.

I'm curious. Exactly why do you consider it 'a load of tripe'? The BBC, specifically news and current affairs-wise, has a strict set of rules to adhere to, and always has had them. Surely you're not surprised to learn this?
