Conflict in the Middle East

Why would would you still have pro Palestinian marches apart from now instilling more fear into the Jewish community

Now we have what looks like a peace to be celebrated why are people still going to march for Palestine? The genocide has stopped in their opinion so shouldn't they be at least joyful or if that is not the case what do they really want? Do they want to keep marching until the Israeli state is no more?

Oh look - yet another post about everything Israel should do to "free Palestine" with absolutely no mention of Hamas disarming, rescinding their stated purpose of obliterating their neighbours or even stopping killing their own - except that's vanishingly unlikely

Edited to add that Sam hasn't been convicted yet, @HellsBalls, though I very much hope he will be - and what a pity that other Unis don't take much action against their own screamers and spitters
He'll doubtless be squealing like a stuck pig about how unfair it all is, but good luck with that among those possessed of more balance

That wouldn’t surprise me, some of those people seem to live in some sort of parallel reality.
I was reading about an NHS doctor, Dr. Rahmeh Aladwan, who faced a General Medical Council investigation for antisemitic social media posts, including claims of "Jewish supremacy" controlling the UK, Holocaust denial, and a threatening gesture at Jewish protesters.
She also shared content celebrating October 7th.
On September 25, 2025, the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service allowed her to continue practicing, stating that "a reasonable and fully informed member of the public would not be alarmed or concerned" by her continuing work (which is already quite questionable).
After that she reposted antisemitic content following the Manchester synagogue attack and was re-referred to tribunal by the GMC on October 8, 2025.
Her reaction to that was to post on X complaining about the “Israel lobby”, no admission of any wrongdoing on her own side whatsoever.

@inamarina you'd be worried about that mindset in a person of science. Is there no critical thinking there at all? The biggest worry is someone so blindsided by this hideous propaganda would not treat Jewish people well in their care. I'd also be concerned as a woman, and if I was gay.
Very alarming.

Her whole X feed is alarming, and also paranoid at the same time.
Claiming Wes Streeting is funded by the “Israel lobby” 🙄
It’s quite sickening, really.

I hear in the news that a convicted paedophile was killed in a UK prison, apparently they're rough places. Mosab Yusef says hamas are a bit rough with other Palestinians in prison, and some evidence of hamasbara when reporting the condition of released prisoners can be found.
I don't doubt some reports of abuse, I see reports from prisons in various countries including those in the middle east. I do doubt hamasniks who denied 7/10 happened or claimed it wasn't so bad or it was justified.

Still, it keeps the hate going and drowns out peacenik voices. Those that can't be judicially executed for 'collaboration.'

The paedophile killed in the U.K. prison is completely irrelevant.
He wasn’t killed by his jailers but by other inmates.

Palestinians assaulted in Israeli jails are suffering at the hands of their jailers and the Israeli Government

I’m somewhat heartened by Streeting’s response to her:

On Wednesday, the health secretary, Wes Streeting, said “sickening comments” had no place in the NHS “and action needs to be taken to root the evil of racism out”. Streeting also said he would overhaul the way medical regulators investigate cases of antisemitism.

How do you know? The inmates are not all in solitary confinement.
They are held en Masse and it’s easy to believe that Hamas also run the gangs in the prisons and hand out the beatings, with a warning to blame it on the jailers.

Israeli prisons have been abusing Palestinian prisoners for far longer than Hamas has existed.

There is no evidence of abuse by Hamas in prisons. In contrast there is overwhelming evidence of abuse by the Israeli authorities going back decades.

Wow
posts are getting really desperate on this thread now

Echobelly · 16/10/2025 13:15

Personally, I marched on Saturday because there is only a ceasefire - this is not peace and Gaza needs aid urgently. The Israeli government needs to know the world is watching and they are already huffing about bodies not being returned when they know those bodies can't be recovered because they have bombed Gaza to ashes.

And as a Jew I am sick of ersatz concerns for our 'safety' being used to shut down criticism of a government that is commiting atrocities and resting of the defence that it is somehow in my name as a Jew and like this is the only way to keep ourselves safe. People need to keep protesting until there is genuine peace and safety for the people of Gaza and Palestine as a whole.

You do this all the time. You all don’t speak for all Jewish people. That’s also shutting down genuine concern that people have.

Also ‘huffing’ about bodies being returned. I think that’s a disgusting way to talk. Gazan health ministry can say to the closest number who is dead but they don’t know where those bodies are? I don’t believe that’s true for a minute…..

Didn’t actually Mosab Hassan Yousef (the “Son of Hamas”) talk about something like that?
Just googled it and this came up:

Mosab Hassan Yousef, in his autobiography Son of Hamas and various interviews, described witnessing brutal treatment of Hamas prisoners during his time in an Israeli prison in 1996. Specifically, he saw Hamas members torturing and killing fellow Palestinian prisoners they suspected of collaborating with Israel. He recounted how Hamas prisoners set up "courts" within the prison to interrogate and punish suspected informants, often using extreme violence.

It’s quite a while since he was imprisoned in an Israeli prison of course, but still.

Yes as they're currently engaged in gang warfare killing each in the streets it is very easy to believe they do the same to each other when in prison.

I have never claimed to speak for all Jewish people, I acknowledge I'm something of a minority; I just want to make sure that people hear a variety of Jewish voices.

I do think the Israeli government is being hypocritical about recovery of the bodies. Of course their families should be able to bury their loved ones with dignity. But it's obviously going to be hard to find them under the circumstances.

She never said she spoke for all jewish people, she just mentioned that she herself is jewish. Criticising her for mentioning her religion seems like a way of shutting down dialogue and preventing her from having a voice, can someone not have a different world view to you if they are also jewish. Given that many people have expressed on these threads that they believe people attending marches are anti semitic I believe her religion to be very relevant. Interestingly you haven’t criticised anyone for mentioning their religion who is opposed to the marches.

I think you mentioned before that you are living in Israel, apologies if I am wrong. But in the UK there are a large number of jewish people who take part in the protest marches and a number of jewish people that are opposed to them.

That’s not really good news about anything

The case is being heard on 23rd October
The previous one was thrown out as a right to freedom of speech
and the GMC said she was not a danger to patients for her online tweet

As long as her views do not affect her work I understand it’s not an issue.

Here’s the article
There's no conclusion here at all
We’ll wait and see for the outcome then

NHS doctor who posted about 7 October Hamas attacks referred to tribunal for second time
Interim hearing had found Dr Rahmeh Aladwan, who has said Israel was ‘humiliated’ by attacks, did not pose risk to patients

A Palestinian doctor who said the 7 October Hamas attacks represented the day Israel was “humiliated” has been re-referred to a medical tribunal.
Dr Rahmeh Aladwan, a trainee trauma and orthopaedic surgeon, was investigated by an interim orders tribunal in September over her social media posts.
On 25 September the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS) ruled it would not impose interim restrictions against Aladwan, saying it did not believe the complaints against her were “sufficient to establish that there may be a real risk to patients”.
Her lawyer argued that Aladwan was exercising her freedom of speech to oppose crimes by Israel, including those identified by the UN. He told the regulator she was a Palestinian doctor with an impeccable clinical record and was, herself, a direct victim of genocide and of dispossession.
The General Medical Council (GMC) has now re-referred Aladwan for another interim orders tribunal while it continues its investigation.
The GMC can make such a referral where it believes an interim order may be needed owing to immediate risk to public protection.
Aladwan’s recent posts on X include: “October 7. The day Israel was humiliated. Their supremacy shattered at the hands of the children they forced out of their homes. The children who watched foreign jews execute their loved ones, rape their land and live on their stolen soil.”
Earlier this week the Campaign Against Antisemitism accused Aladwan of waging a “campaign of hatred against British Jews”. It also threatened to launch a legal challenge against last month’s decision not to censure her. It said: “It is inconceivable that a Jewish person would feel safe receiving treatment from this doctor.”
On Wednesday, the health secretary, Wes Streeting, said “sickening comments” had no place in the NHS “and action needs to be taken to root the evil of racism out”. Streeting also said he would overhaul the way medical regulators investigate cases of antisemitism.
The interim orders tribunal hearing will take place on 23 October.
