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 mean this thread is beyond nonsense. The OP compared Israel to Nazis. Its a generally accepted form of antisemitism known as Holocaust Inversion.

I'm not going to report it as I'd prefer people see OP for what they are. If I were to report it, it'd get deleted for being openly antisemitic. Happens all the time.

People supporting Hamas do indeed have something in common with Nazis- and thats so very obvious I cant believe it needs saying here.

No, you're wrong. Please do some research. There's no occupation, legal or otherwise. Israel withdrew from Gaza and handed over to the Palestinian Authority in 2005. That's a fact. It's got nothing to do with my opinion or yours. Just what happened. Look it up. Here's one source (I tried to find one sympathetic to your side of the argument) https://truthofthemiddleeast.com/withdrawal/

How do you feel about your protests causing distress and intimidation to Jewish children? How do you feel about protests helping to legitimise anti semitism?

Exactly.

Frankly there are many many people being killed in conflicts around the world including in Ukraine.

Yet somehow Gaza is supposed to always top the list of whom we support and talk about. Despite Hamas being a proscribed terrorist organisation, despite their aim to kill all Jews and despite the fact Hamas won the majority of votes in 2006 by people who apparently thought that was just fine.

And who can forget the atrocities Hamas perpetrated on innocent civilians just because they happened to be Israeli?

Anyone, with any decency would be focused on mourning the loss of the victims in Manchester and highlighting the scourge of antisemitism at the moment, not bolstering the cause of Hamas who seek to anililate them.

Ooh, a map!! I love maps.

At no point have I said October 7th was a fair and measured response to occupational oppression. The way that the day unfolded was horrific and even I, with years of supporting a free Palestine behind me, held my hands up and said that Hamas had fucked up for their own people.
Israel absolutely had a right to defend itself, to retrieve it's hostages.
Israel hasn't defended itself or acted in the best interests of it's hostages. It's been busy committing a genocide, continuing it's land grab and declining peace deals that would have seen the return of it's hostages.
You're lying through your teeth to say that Israel had left the Palestinians alone until that day.
Israel, the state, is evil. It was intended as a safe haven for people who had suffered evil but it's become a monster and perpetrator of its own.

It’s not a bingo game either !

It wouldn’t be taken down. It was investigated already by mumsnet as clearly some posters don’t like anything that promotes the demonstrations and MNHQ came back and said it was fine
So no
It won’t be removed no more than the other thread calling for demos to stop

I haven’t met or spoken to anyone that supports Hamas so have no idea of their motivation so I wouldn’t call anyone out on any side of this war or around the world as being akin to Nazis.

"Israel, the state, is evil'

Got it.

Really nailing your colours to the mast now.

Palestine supporters were likened to Nazis, to which I responded that the Israeli government are acting like Nazi's, in fact.

There's no anti-Semitism in it.
I'm talking about the actions of a government, not the Jewish people.

Do these posters who minimise not realise we can see through them

The UK government considers the Israeli occupation illegal under international law. I am guessing you are pro illegal settlements so you see this as Israel’s land.

Is that meant to be a gotcha?
I think genocide is evil.

Even the Russians aren’t whole sale slaughtering unarmed women and children and other civilians. And the Ukrainians do have an army and can fight back.
thats the difference.

It would be removed. Its Holocaust Inversion.

Thanks for saying no one is like the Nazis tho. I mean it in case it sounds sarcastic- I know emotions are running high.

This is nonsense. First of all, I didn't say Israel had left Gaza alone until that day. I said they withdrew from Gaza in 2005, which is true, a matter of record. They actually didn't leave the Gazan people alone - they continued to supply food, water, electricity and to provide a safe haven for refugees who escaped from Hamas' intolerable regime.

Israel has not been 'making a land grab' - it had already withdrawn from Gaza. Palestinians started the war by enacting a horrific pogrom on the Jewish people.

Then people like yourselves got involved and started cheering for them.

Israel could have wiped Gaza out ten times over but instead it's sent aid and tried to limit casualties. As I pointed out earlier in the thread, there's no genocide in Gaza. (I linked an excellent and well-researched article to support that point - I take it you didn't bother looking at it? Here it is again: https://www.spiked-online.com/2025/09/21/the-gaza-genocide-a-21st-century-blood-libel/)

Hamas, on the other hand, in common with Islamists around the world, has explicitly stated its wish to rid the world of Jews entirely. It is the Palestinians who wish to conduct a genocide. You have been taken in and are acting as a useful idiot for terrorists who despise you. I know that must be very hard to face up to in yourself, but there must be a part of you that feels at least a little disquiet in your actions, when your response to antisemitic murders in your own country is to go out and cheer for terrorist killers in another. Is nothing said on this thread at all moving to you? No compassion for Jews here, for Jewish children who are terrified by your marching through their streets waving your death wish flags?

And the Uk supports Ukraine including military help.
There are sanctions against Russia.

I would like to see sanctions against Israel. I personally dont buy Israeli goods just like I did not buy South African goods during apartheid.

Its a gotcha yes.

China, the state, is evil.
Nigeria, the state, is evil.
Russia, the state, is evil.

I think we can all see how those statements are unacceptable.

Yet you felt free to say what you did.

You are wrong. Look up the history. Israel withdrew from Gaza. I really don't know what else to tell you. It happened. It's a fact.

I EDITED MY POST. to save you from checking, I changed the word BUT to BUY. I will not be surprised when someone comes along and calls me terrorist supporter for that 😆

What’s that absolute poodle poop you have just posted.

Do you use the

NO THANKS app to identify Israeli products
Its very helpful

What?! The Russian military have knowingly bombed theatres and schools where unarmed civilians have been sheltering. Do you know how many thousands of Ukrainian children have been abducted to 're-education facilities' and forcibly adopted by Russian families? How Russian soldiers are using rape as weapon of war?

This is crazy and yet idiots on here like to label then poor poor people.

Hamas' written manifesto includes the genocide of all Jews??? I'm afraid you are very ignorant on a very basic level if you think Hamas' terrorism has nothing to do with Jews.
