He raises some interesting ideas.

I did not answer your question.

Firstly, you presume a lot of things about me ( which are untrue) while telling me not to presume anything. The irony!
Secondly, I find your tone condescending and patronizing. What gives you the right to tell me what I need to reflect on? Don't you feel dizzy, being on such a moral high ground?

The river to the sea part calls for Israel to be destroyed.
This is what it means to Jewish people and the marchers know it.

OK@floodlightonwhatisright I guess the river to the sea has negative connotations in itself, and can never be regarded as a geographical description because of its associations. Thank you for clarifying. I am not completely comfortable with slogans anyway, as they are quite single minded and I struggle to see anything in black and white terms.

Thank you.

You are certainly one of the most reasonable posters on these boards. I salute you.

No I am Truly Wonderful so I pretty much post like this all the time, have done for years

You need to reflect on why you chose to ask Giraffe that question. It is very telling that from a conversation about the protests she was posting about you decided to hit her with that question. It literally had nothing to do with the use of the chant unless you assumed she was Jewish/Israeli/supporting the Israeli government (delete as appropriate). Most people would not have jumped to where you did. Therefore you need to start reflecting on why you think like this. I can say what I see from your posting behaviour but I think it is better for people to learn these things about themselves then their is room for growth.

Was that patronising enough or do you want me to continue 🤔

Irony upon irony, which you cannot or do not want to see.
Anyway, I will not engage with you anymore because assuming makes an ass of you and me.

No, the Likud people are currently killing thousands of Gazan children.

Truly it was asked as a segue to 'how awful are Israel?'

Anything to turn the conversation to the favoured topic over a tricky one like 'why are bellends booing people coming out of McDonalds?'

Are we expecting them to march at some point in the UK after the conflict

If so we definitely have a few things to say about that march

A segue suggests it was a seamless move or question

I disagree it was a jump and a assumption of your ethnicity and/or political beliefs regarding Israel

Keeps happening to you that doesn't it. However it is not a you problem it is a them problem.

I just don't have tolerance for these assumptions because people are calling out verbal or physical violence or incitement. It suggests a line of thinking that is very obvious.

Oh it's never seamless. Yet here we are at killing Gazan children again.

What have I missed?

Giraffe is Jewish or Israeli again apparently

Out of interest and balance, has there actually been any documented and reported cases of physical attacks on Jewish people in the uk ? Has anyone actually been found guilty ?

"Out of interest and balance"

But you can do that yourself, anyone can. That’s the benefit of living in a free country. You and anyone else that wants to, can march for a release of the hostages. Anyone who feels strongly enough can do so.

@Livinginanotherworld yes, there has been an increase in Antisemitic and Islamophobic violent attacks.

Here's a story from two hours ago so no one will have been 'found guilty' yet

CST website or twitter should give you some statistics but for example the police are currently looking for someone that beat up a Jewish guy at a bus stop in London the week before Christmas

There's also an increase in intimidating behaviour, verbal aggression, etc against both Muslims and Jews.

Here

Yep and hoaxes to intimate

Like this

Out of interest and balance

😂Please.

That's absolutely disgraceful @Trulywonderful - I think I read the police had arrested someone in connection, but it's so scary to have it happen to you and your loved ones, and once the idea gets out, it's hard to stop other horrible people playing copycat.
