This is just unbelievable. These ‘protesters’ are being given free rein to threaten and assault pro-Israelis (Jewish) because ‘there’s 500 of them and 2 of you’.

Police not interested in doing their job, which is upholding the law I thought?

Just sickening that this country has come to this.

Can you find examples outside of NI though? (since most people in the UK don't live there and never go there)

And yet most people in the Uk don’t live in Israel or Gaza either so I’m not sure what your point is. NI is part of the UK. Lack of knowledge is merely ignorance.

In Northern Ireland the Union Jack is still used to assert dominance and provoke nationalist communities.

The devil can cite scripture for his purpose applies for this using of flags. Flags mean different things to different people. The Union Jack belongs to everyone in Britain and just because some people use it for ill, it doesn’t define it. It represents everyone who is British.

"Oh come on.

One Islamist nutjob has a link to other Islamist nutjobs. You might not feel comfortable admitting it but most people know it.

Palestine has a history of islamist nutjobs committing terrorist atrocities. It's ok to admit it, it's the truth."

Good summary.

Plus it's pretty uncomfortable when same nut jobs start waving Islamic nutjob flags in UK streets.

Of course.
Anyone committing atrocities under their countries flag is linking that country to their atrocities. They are saying- We do this in this name.
The problem is the level and visibility of those atrocities. And Palestinian atrocities have historically been visible internationally. That's by design. Remember Munich?

So all the settlers flying the flag are bringing Israel into disrepute. Or rather they would be, if there was anything to bring into disrepute which there can’t be because the Israeli army and government are actually backing them up, making the Israeli flag currently a symbol of aggressive colonialism and racism

veiledsentiments · 26/06/2025 15:29

And an Israeli committing war crimes. It’s ok to admit it. It’s the truth.

U.S. President Donald Trump called for Israel to pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu or cancel his corruption trial, saying the U.S. would save him like it did his country.

Even more bad news!!

And now they are at it again, arming groups opposed to Hamas but not necessarily who you want at the helm either. The Israeli government doesn’t want a stable Palestine other countries will negotiate with. They do not want a 2 state solution and are sabotaging it. The key to move forward is a new government in Israel who won’t support extremism on the Palestine side.

This. Unfortunately, elections not due until mid 2026, I believe, and Netanyahu will cling on by his fingernails if necessary for as long as he possibly can. It’s his stay out of jail card.

I’m sure everyone already knows that.
I fail to see how that means a victim of a terror attack in the UK should be more triggered by a Palestinian flag compared to a Union flag when more terror victims have suffered in the name of the latter.

Not in their lifetime most likely.

dairydebris · 26/06/2025 08:02

Twisterpiggy · 26/06/2025 07:55

So if the union has been deligitimitised and anyone who knows a victim of terrorism would be triggered by the Palestinian flag it surely means that the Union Jack should be more triggering in the uk?
After all more people have been victims of home grown terror organisations, but quite a considerable number. So if you’re agreeing with the call to ban one you must surely think the other needs banned?

And Palestinian atrocities have historically been visible internationally. That's by design.

What does international visibility have to do with terror victims in the UK being triggered by the Palestinian flag specifically?

Are you aware of that many terrorist atrocities committed under the British flag in our lifetime? I'm not. Perhaps the St George flag could be linked with football hooliganism? That certainly pops into my mind sometimes... I'm sorry I don't follow the rest of your argument.

As to your second point, its so obvious I can't believe youre posting in good faith. Much terrorism has been committed in the name of Palestinian nationalism in recent times. Therefore I can see the link between violent Islamic terrorism and the Palestinian flag. Thats it.

That they are aware other terror attacks around the world not just in the UK?

Do you feel the Union Jack is delegitimised by home grown loyalist terror organisations?

The people committing terrorist atrocities in the name of Palestinian nationalism are the ones delegitimizing the flag, not the ones simply pointing it out.

There's links to terrorism and the British flag and the Irish flag and the St George's flag to far right activists and I'm sure others too,, we still fly them because we recognise the difference between the people flying the flag and the flag itself. It is just an exercise to delegitmise the Palestinian flag

It's disingenuous in the extreme to suggest there is no link at all between Palestine and Islamic terrorism.
That's not what I said. Read my posts properly

Terrorism was pretty fundamental to the establishment of the state of Israel. Google the King David Hotel bombing.

Am Yosrael Chai. Nothing else to add.

It's an anagram of the traditional Arabic greeting, going back to the early 9th century, when Mulsim traders would deal with Jewish merchants.

Over time it evolved into its current state of "Am Yisrael Chai", shifting letter by letter from the original "I Say Camelhair".

It is projected to evolve into " Hairy CIA Males" soon.

And I was pointing out that there is indeed a link between the Palestinian flag and Islamic terrorism.

Just off the top of my head here's a list of Palestinian Islamic terrorist groups-

Black September
Fatah
PLO
Hamas
Palestinian Islamic Jihad

Terrorist activities commited include suicide bombings, hijackings, rape, car bombs, assinations, hostage taking. Not all attacks have been commited in Israeli or Palestinian territories.

It's disingenuous in the extreme to suggest there is no link at all between Palestine and Islamic terrorism.
