Please continue to protest!

[Icreatedausernameyippee]

In the wake of the tragic events that took place in Manchester, I want to implore people not to lose steam or, more importantly, hope.

Gaza is still facing destruction, famine and genocide.

We need to continue to peacefully pressure our government to take action and sanction the Israeli government and to educate and inform people about the horrors faced by the Palestinian people day in and day out for the last two years.

People who opposed the liberation of Palestine want for this to be a turning point. For people to point the finger at a movement that wants to see the end of the suffering of millions and label it as inciting hate.

It's not.
And it's important.

Please don't put down your passion for Gaza.

I don’t think it’s merely a case of ‘being wrong in the circumstances’.

I think it shows exactly who and what these people are.

They should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.

and information from the poll:

Only 5 percent of Palestinians think Hamas’s massacre on October 7 constitutes a war crime. The poll found that 80 percent of Palestinians have not seen videos of Hamas atrocities, with 60 percent responding that the media they watch did not show them

no genocide? yeah, right.

They literally filmed a starving hostage digging his own grave while they mocked him, and people over here are telling us that they're the good guys.

The war did not begin on 7th October. You really can’t just ignore decades.

Hey so about these tunnels...Have we seen them? How quickly are they being rebuilt? Because they keep bombing hospitals, repeatedly.
Israel are either very ineffective or just lying about their targets.

Seeing as we're up in arms about baby deaths, do we all know about the ICU where the babies were left to starve to death after Israel started selling the hospital?

There was no war in Gaza on October 6th. You really can't just ignore reality.

I haven’t seen anyone on this thread consider Hamas “good guys”. That’s just inaccurate.

So where is all your information coming from then? TikTok?

Israel isn’t the only country bordering Palestine, they don’t have control over the Egyptian border. You can go that way, no?

so please stop with the lazy parroting that Palestinians are all passive victims of their terrorist government. they’re willing participants in it.

Can you remind me of the post saying Hamas are the good guys? I am waiting!

I offer you this.

No, there wasn’t. There was a repressed population whose lives were controlled by a neighbouring state, even to the extent of drinking water, for decades.

That can’t be ignored.

As are the majority of Israelis - but only one side is committing a genocide.

Yes we need to call this shit out!

All of them? The babies and children?

Thats a ridiculous statement and you know it.

According to the Zionists leading Israel, there's no innocent Palestinians.

Completely agree

No, you're right. It's more like this: "Well obviously we don't support Hamas. We just march in support of their war against the Jews while ignoring the fact that they started this war with abhorrent acts of barbarism, that they use their own people as human shields, that they base their operations in hospitals so as to win propaganda points if they're hit, that they steal aid from their own people, that they film rapes and murders to mock and terrorise Jews, that their repeatedly stated intention is to exterminate all Jews in every part of the world, that they turn down peace plans and break ceasefires, that they sent back dead babies and filmed it and laughed, that they refuse to release hostages, who are tortured and starved, that they despise women and gays, that they abuse children by recruiting them into their death cult. We don't worry about any of that, because the BBC showed a picture of a poorly child who turned out not to actually be starving but we didn't bother to read the follow up report."

What has your anti-immigration post to do with the thread?

If it wasn't religion it would be something else, unfortunately.

OP unfortunately for you and your passionate advocacy, I think this terrorist murder in Manchester has swayed opinion in this country. People have realised that these continued marches which quite openly calling for the destruction of Israel and Jews are emboldening Islamic terrorists. Meanwhile you and your fellow handmaidens are cheering them on.

I wonder how you, as presumably a female, would get on living under an islamic regime.

Jewish communities have been living peacefully among us for centuries, just getting on with life. We offered safe haven to Jewish people fleeing persecution and pogroms in mainland Europe. Now they live in fear in their own country. Are you telling me that if the Israeli government were to stop their current path, all would be well again? Jewish people in this country would not have to have security at their schools and synagogues? All the marchers would pack up and go home?

Because I don't believe this.

No I won't go on your matches, and I will continue to call out antisemitism when I see it.

👏 👏 👏

Oh no! Called out for repeating someone's own words back to them! Whatever shall I do?!

I'll be showing my support tomorrow - at a Friends of Israel event in Manchester.
