The English nation is completely screwed by lefties who don't understand the gravity of what happened on October 7th. To top it off they are rowdy in support of Hamas, a banned terrorist group by the English government.
On one hand fair play to demonstrate your disgust of dying innocent Palestinian lives, but at the same time respect other people’s opinions about the state of affairs. Many well-versed stand with Israel and understand its need to wipe out Hamas. If Hamas hide behind innocent victims, then that is an internal problem that Palestinians and the Arab world need to take into consideration, and the need to oust Hamas and its supporters.
There is no room for sympathizers after what happened. War is a bad thing. Ask yourself who created this situation, and please don't say it is because Gazans are oppressed. Everything has a story behind it, so instead of taking sides, study the facts of history. Here are 6 facts:
Jews first occupied Judea now Palestine in the Iron Age which is a period after the Stone Age and Bronze age between 1200 BC and 600 BC.
The Jewish religion started 1800 years before Christ – BC. The Muslim religion began AC – After Christ in 610, so I think it clear to realize Jews occupied the territory a long time before Muslims.
Whether liked or not the Balfour Declaration of 1917 was binding after English armed forces took the Ottoman Empire out of control of the region. This agreement was sanctioned by the League of Nations, now known as the UN – United Nations to allow displaced Jews the right to live in the land alongside Arabs. It wasn't a country in those days, but rather land which had relatively small amount of people including Jews amongst Arabs.
There are still two million Arabs living in Israel, as well as Christians and other religions which include atheists, and they have the same rights as Jews.
Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza in 2005. By 2007, Hamas emerged both as the victor in Palestinian elections and in factional fighting with rival Fatah in the city and in the wider Gaza Strip and has since been the sole governing authority.
Unfortunately, supporters of the Palestinian cause use the mantra, “Free Palestine from the river to the sea.” They either don’t understand its significance to push the Israelis completely out to the sea, or if they are aware then it would suggest pure hatred for Jews i.e., antisemitism.
The following video shows a person who does understand the situation, and points out with a small banner saying, “Do you agree Hamas is a terrorist organization? Yes or Yes? He was arrested by the British police, and probably because he didn't write the option 'no':
The interesting point is the way the Hamas supporters lash out at him just because he disagrees with their cause. He doesn’t speak, but rather we see the demonstrator’s reaction to his sign.
There is no doubt about what happened on October 7th, and the British police need to take stronger measures against the do gooders!
Take care!
