Jerusalem day parade by settlers

[TakeMe2Insanity]

The provocation continues. This isn’t Gaza. This is a show of might and the opportunity to abuse.

Yes nothing.
Glad we agree on something.
In the same way that the UK authorities have done nothing to help UK Jews feel safer in the wake of the anti-Semitism on campuses, marches and stonings.
The protests are heavily policed. The government has pledged £72 millions to combat antisemitism (rightly so). Protesting is a democratic right, hard earned too. The fear of the Jewish community is real, of course. It is the same fear the black community feels when the EDL are in town and every time the police stopped a BAME member. Ask my husband. That fear is also shared by the Muslim community.

I said in general for this reason.

@TheKeenAmberHedgehog think you might be accusing me of something I haven't done, there.

Oh I am so sorry @Scirocco , I meant @EasterIssland .

@TheKeenAmberHedgehog Do you want to re read the thread again because Scirocco hasn't accused anyone of derailing the thread and did quite the opposite actually.

Are you getting your usernames mixed up here? I don't think you are supposed to be using multiple names to defend yourself.

@PearlKoala

I was just coming on to say the same thing.

Name change fail

@keenforhelp I saw you apologised after I had posted and I was quoting @TheKeenAmberHedgehog. I take it that's you.

They were pretty quick getting it withdrawn. They've missed the other post where they mixed up usernames too though.

@PearlKoala I think this has been the highlight of my day. It's been entertaining watching.

@PearlKoala wonder if their next name will have "keen" in it too?

I'd say they'll learn from this mistake and make sure to give themselves very different usernames in future!

I know I was just joking :)

Got me bang😂 to rights

Interesting how it's considered worthy of criticism when some posters say things in support or defence of others, but then it seems to be acceptable to use alternate account names to give the impression of having the same kind of support.

Yes it is interesting but what I said stands. I was accused of derailment when no others were.

I accused someone of detailing yesterday if it makes you feel any less special.

@keenforhelp
"I would be very happy if certain posters disengage with me - including you as I don't like posts where somebody comes to another person's rescue or supports them in this context.

I stand up for myself and would not let anybody do it for me."

So why did you feel the need to name change and defend yourself?

Double standards/hypocrisy/call it what you like.

I wonder how many discussions on here are actually the same person just changing user name and talking to themselves.

@Scirocco exactly. You kind of lose all your credibility in posting really.

Certainly feels like that sometimes

Well I am the same person technically so I did defend myself.

I also wonder how many people change username in the same thread but not accusing anybody of it, you understand.

😱 this is a thing?
