Israeli flag flyers threatened with arrest after being attacked by Pro-Palestine mob.

Palestinians did not "start" this. By 1949 Zionist invading forces had taken more than 78 percent of historic Palestine, ethnically cleansed and destroyed about 530 villages and cities, and killed about 15,000 Palestinians in a series of mass atrocities, including more than 70 massacres. In the decades following Israel continued to displace, torture and kill Palestinians in Gaza and the occupied west Bank. Making their little strip of land smaller and smaller and treating them like 2nd class citizens in their own county but when some Palestinians try to fight back against the invaders they are the "terrorists"?

So if your people were surrounded, starved, and slaughtered in their tens of thousands what would you do?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he is “committed” to a United States proposal to take over the Gaza Strip and displace its Palestinian residents, as Washington’s top diplomat was in Saudi Arabia to push the plan, which is opposed by Arab states.
In a statement on Monday, Netanyahu said he was “committed to US President Trump’s plan for the creation of a different Gaza”.
Human rights groups have slammed the Trump administration’s push to take over Gaza and forcibly displace Palestinians as a violation of international law amounting to ethnic cleansing.

What would you like to call it instead @HellsBalls?

The people on the hate marches are neither miserable nor beleaguered but rather emboldened and clearly violent. They're the crass thugs raising tensions and it's dangerous and out of control.

Peaceful protest for Palestine is an oxymoron. The current war, started by Palestine and during which Palestine has fired tens of thousands of missiles at the country it invaded, is just the current excuse for the same people who have nothing better to do than march against a single tiny country 3000 miles away, purely because Jewish people live there.

For me, as someone who isn't Jewish, the Palestine flag is a symbol of hatred and racism. How dare anyone involved with these disruptive marches think they have the right to control our streets and stop other people waving their own flags. How have we allowed this situation to arise in the UK? We need to do something about the extremist mobs we have emboldened, not blame people because they were attacked by thugs. I note the people with Israeli flags didn't feel 'provoked' to violentlt attack the other side.

Palestine freely chose to commit a terrorist atrocity and then to perpetuate the relatively minor conflict it started and is losing. The situation in Gaza may be awful for the people living there but it is absolutely not genocide and it's an insult to call it that when real genocides are going on right now, they didn't have to start a war and the country they attacked is allowed to defend itself against the tens of thousands of missiles it's been bombarded with, good job it has a strong defence system because I guarantee no supposed anti-war pro-Palestinians are marching against the carnage their pet cause is trying its best to carry on with.

Most people are sick of both flag waving protesters. Everyone I know just wants to stop seeing innocent civilians on both sides getting killed. You know it’s bad when even Trump has had enough of it all and has called out both sides.

The thread has gone in exactly the direction, predicted. It is the CITME board, after all ❤️

Would you be more comfortable with “slaughter”?

I think there’s protesting and there’s inciting violence and raising tension and, myself, I would say waving an Israeli flag in the middle of a Palestinian protest was the latter. These are not brave young men defending their cause. To my mind these are crass thugs taunting a miserable beleaguered people. Shame on them, and shame on those who encouraged or defend them.

You mean like the make believe ‘genocide’?

It's Gaza they have been open about wanting to ethnically cleanse. Gaza isn't Israel yet.

I think Bibi and the Israeli government have played a very dangerous game regarding the safety of Israel and its people. People are not prepared to sit quietly in the fear of being called anti-semitic anymore when Israel and its government continue to try and eradicate and starve the Palestinian people. Unfortunately Israel are now seeing the backlash from many other countries, and can no longer hide what they are doing. And people will take a very long time to forget this.

I don’t think so either. Not everyone is

Untrue - everyone I know see’s the Palestinian flag as a symbol of an oppressed people seeking freedom.

The Israeli flag on the other hand is now synonymous with genocide, torture, forced starvation, rape, child amputees, bigotry, religious fanaticism and so on…

Two million Arabs with equal rights in Israel - so not ethnic cleansing is it?

Most people are NOT sickened by the Israeli flag

I think the people wanting to be violent at a protest need to be accountable. Whether they see an Israeli flag or some indication of being Jewish.

I'm another one who can never understand the mentality of those who insert themselves into a large crowd/march that supports the opposite of their beliefs, unless of course they are there to cause trouble. Same as one group of football supporters trying to mix with the opposing team supporters. People like that either have a screw loose or wanting violence.

BTW OP - Israel are commiting genocide and I sincerely hope the government and their wardogs are hauled before international courts, same as a previous genocidal government and their wardogs were.

You have eyes, ears and a vivid imagination.

Oh I think you do have many expectations. And people who are against genocide are not meeting your expectations of capitulation and desire for ethno-nationalism.

Which country are you referring to exactly?

Noted

It's spelt Israel.

So you still care about Palestine more than your own country?
Unless you came from abroad for the demonstration?
