Palestine Action demo 9 August

To my amazement, last night I discovered that some posters on MN think that "radical Islam" means simply "Muslim" 😬

I wonder if this explains why so many are unconcerned about who might be pulling the strings behind the "peace" rallies that were first organised on 7 October? Do they know what radical Islam is, how powerful it is, that it is widely acknowledged as the greatest threat to UK national security, that its intentions are clearly stated, that it is 10000000% different than simply observing Muslim faith?

Palestine Action are planning a rally in central London on Saturday and hope to overwhelm the police presence. Is anyone concerned about this? I'm worried that the seeds of civil unrest are being sown, without it being entirely clear who is sowing them.

But they are unlikely to be controlled by bad actors in the Middle East. Especially given the name 🤣

Bad actors???
I don't understand what you mean by this.

But surely if they cause more disruption and public order offences they should also have been proscribed?
Isn't that why Palestine Action has been made one

Well, quite! It was a real eye-opener. Some people literally seem unaware of what radical Islam is, and why it matters, especially now.

It's astonishing.

I normally find their mantra is cloned. Free Palestine, stop the genocide. It's worrying how Hamas' plan has worked. It goes to show how easily their methods can seep through to the west.

@Beachtastic this would explain accusations of Islamophobia, when discussing Islamic fundamentalists.

Is that Stop Oil group a proscribed terrorist group? They seem to employ similar techniques.

Or maybe people don't like a group that has never threatened anyone being proscribed as a 'terrorist group'? Maybe people don't like the ramifications that has for free speech?

I'm Jewish, BTW, so not a 'Muslim Extremist'.

Their members bludgeoned police officers with a sledgehammer.

When they fucked with UK military, they found out.

I'm far more concerned about the thugs that turn up outside hotels where they think asylum seekers might be staying. The Yaxley Lennon supporters, they scare me,I am not scared by peaceful people holding placards saying they are against genocide.

You're not concerned at terrorists, who seek to immobilise UK military aircraft?

I suspect they did so on the basis of intelligence about some of the key players...

When I go to London, I’m never concerned about becoming a victim of Jewish terrorism.

HellsBalls · 06/08/2025 09:45

The police can be easily overwhelmed. I was in London for the Poll Tax riots and saw it first hand.

Two Tier Kier needs to go on record and say mandatory prison sentence for the terrorist supporters who turn up (and get caught).

The police will have cameras and facial recognition, and all the recording from the tube stations etc.

It’s very, very concerning that the Islamists have a hold.
