Wow. I realise these incidents are on the up but that’s so blatant. She goes on to dissemble:

She continued: “I do not support the killing of civilians, of course, but I support Hamas and Palestinians’ rights to stand up for themselves.”

She openly supports Hamas. This is a medical student. She also stated that the banner referred to the Israeli government not Jewish people or Israelis in general. Yeah, alright love, pull the other one it has got bells on…

I’m not sure what I’m asking here- just so shocked to see this.

‘It’s against the Israeli government’: Student Marie Andersen tries to defend vile anti-Semitic sign after global fury

Norwegian medical student Marie Andersen has attempted to defend her anti-Semitic poster as she insisted it was about the "Israeli government" while it showed the Star of David being binned next to the words “keep the world clean”.

And yes plenty marched complicitly with her holding that sign. I can’t imagine how that can happen. To paraphrase, I guess that is indeed all it takes for evil to flourish; for good people to stand by and do nothing…

I couldn't agree more. Decent people have to call this out.

She wasn't alone, sadly. I've seen other examples of the same placard.

Yes, I saw an image of it at the London march, it's on Tracy Ann Oberman's x account.

@etmoietmoietmoi that news saddens me. That is the only example I have seen. To hear that others are happily holding these up is very bloody scary. I find it intolerable that this would be directed to any group, but why the police did nothing in this instance is shocking.

@Comedycook quite. If she doesn’t get chucked out of med school for that than frankly I despair.

Such a shame I can't say what I really want to say about her because I would probably get banned

I did not know that @EsmaCannonball just trying to square that with one of our major edicts: first do no harm… just incredible.

Doctors were the single biggest profession to join the SS. Maybe she has a few career goals?

That is shocking. I am deeply sorry that antisemitism is on the rise and that our Jewish communities are afraid for their lives.

Terrifying. But here we are. Plenty marched alongside her, completely complicit.
