"Brilliant moment pro-Israel protesters get their own back on pro-Palestine mob"

It is their right and for the record, I don't think a pro palastine protest should have been allowed outside this cinema. The police have powers to direct protests and they should have been used here.

“And ONE time, just one time, a group of people want to broadcast THEIR displeasure at a mob showing up inappropriately, and it's LIKE HOW DARE THEY PROTEST, COUNTER PROTEST, gees have the audacity to say "NO! STOP".

Where have you been? Just about every pro-Palestine protest has also had a pro-Israel counter protest at the same time.

And, the article says that the Israel protest got to the cinema first and then a tiny band of vastly outnumbered counter pro Palestine protest showed up later, so how can they be protesting “At a mob showing up inappropriately” when there were no pro-Palestine protesters when they started?

Love the headline narrative forming how outraged I should be about this. It is indeed "brilliant" that the Israelis "got their own back" on that "mob".

I am a free thinking British person.

Being Jewish doesn't mean on you get to decide, what does and doesn't constitute as being antisemitic. Being against the killing of far far to many innocent Palestinians doesn't make people a hater of Jews. You have no more right to decide what is considered antisemitic than I do. The definition has already been set

Do they do what to other groups? Would I say the same thing to a person of Muslim faith if they were trying to tell me that only they get to decide what constitutes as Islamaphobia, I absolutely would yes!

The withholding of basic supplies such as food and water to a population is considered genocide. The UK and America had to build a pier to deliver food, countries are having to drop it from the sky as it is being withheld by land....

I wasn't talking to you.

Didn't think you would.

The head teacher asked him to be very careful not to set off the other alarm sound because they have had to set a different siren as a warning of a terrorist attack due to the marches and the enormous rise in antisemitism.
All the staff and children are terrified this might happen so setting this off inadvertently would cause huge panic

Was there a specific terror attack threat made to the school? Did the police advise them that there was and they should install an alarm? I am aware that there has been a rise in anti-semitism and Jews are rightly feeling threatened and at risk but I fail to see the benefit of frightening kids into thinking there might be a terrorist attack. Yes be vigilant be prepared but is it really appropriate to frighten children in this way?

Every week, hundreds of thousands of protestors in London, akin to a baying mob, ceasefire, from the river to the sea, anti-Semitic tropes in the ranks...

And ONE time, just one time, a group of people want to broadcast THEIR displeasure at a mob showing up inappropriately, and it's LIKE HOW DARE THEY PROTEST, COUNTER PROTEST, gees have the audacity to say "NO! STOP".

Well tough people, it's OK to protest, it's their right! Isn't it this what the Pro-Palestinians supporters proclaim on these threads?

Yes it is!

What makes you think it's your place to tell Jews what constitutes anti-semitism?

Do you do this to other groups? I very much doubt it.

Calling a conflict genocide doesn't make it true.

Israeli aligned, might be better.

I guess I could copy The Express and do a yellow journalism about that side, but I think that was already done quite well by the Western press in the '30s. Especially in Germany.

oh you must be very old to remember that far back.

There were Israelis there?

But why were they there? What did they hope to accomplish by protesting against the screening of a documentary about October 7th? No one was being forced to watch the film. It was a cinema in. Jewish area and wasn’t being widely publicised outside the area (afaik) It’s seems very spiteful to object to the screening .

“Mob” but the same article stated that the Pro-Palestinian counter protesters arrived after the Pro-Israel ones and were described as:
“A tiny band of pro-Palestine protesters are on the scene, however they are vastly outnumbered.”

”Mob” has connotations of a very large, criminally violent mass of people.
You can’t be both a tiny band that is vastly outnumbered AND be the a “mob” compared to protesters that vastly outnumber you.

What fanned the flames was the mob that turned up. They couldn't leave well enough alone. Not even there.

It’s not until events like those of October 7 happen at British music festivals or in quiet English villages that people will see what is truly disgusting.

Yes - it tells you how vulnerable, angry and fearful people are becoming.
