The Reverend Sue Parfitt, from Bristol, was detained for holding a placard that read: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.” She was among more than 27 people arrested on Saturday for acts of defiance against the proscription.

          Does it matter? I’m sure a lot of people in whatever country you live in support the genocide. There are idiots in every religion, country, group etc. does not always make the entire group rotten.

          No it’s not mincing words. One is antisemitic and the other is not. You should learn the difference tbh.

            @khannie 97% of Israel is Ashkenazi so NOT a Semitic people, while the Palestinians whom they commit genocide against are. So if anything you are the Antisemite.

              Got a source for this? Ashkenazi Jews are eastern european. A lot of Jews are sephardic. I don’t know the numbers but I’d guess that more Jews in Israel are sephardic.

                @ewo Unfortunately not, I just read about a genetic study that determined this, however, I do not remember the people who conducted the study and what was published did not specify the sample size nor whether the samples are collected across the entire country, but then it’s not that big of a country.

                  Fair. Again Jews aren’t some boogeymen. We bleed the same as everyone else. For a people that make up ~0.5% of the worlds population we really had to put up with stupid motherfuckers and their inane bullshit. Some people are really thick as pigshit.

                  Again yes I’m callimg the nazis thick as pigshite. Murderous they were, but you cannot deny their reasoning makes them look stupid as fuck.

                    @ewo Genuine genetic sons of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob perhaps, but you’ve got a bunch of Babalonian worshipers of Baal, Marduk and the line that came to Germany years back, still practicing child sacrifice that given the choice between changing religions and being beheaded changed religions, and what better way to continue exploiting the natives than to claim to be God’s Chosen. As near as I can tell psychopathy seems to be a genetic feature of that lot.

          You again? Last time I came across you, you were being racist too. Your username is racist. Is racism just a hobby or a full-time job for you?

            @ewo You watch any interview with any of them save for a few elderly sane folks, and they all believe the world should either be dead or subservient to them. Those who don’t believe that should take some responsibility for their countries actions, obviously they don’t.

              I’m drunk as a skunk so I don’t quite see your point but aye

              I’m half jewish, I’ve been all over Israel, what is going on there saddens me so much, to see my Jewish ancestors to escape the holocaust and then to do things like this… Again any self respecting Jew would reject rhis completely.

              Jews =/= Israel

              Israel =/= Jews

              Criticising Israel =/= Anti-Semitic

              And Netanyahu is a fucking war criminal. He deserves to be hung. I hope he gets the Gaddafi treatment

                @ewo We agree on pretty much all of the above, I apologize that my statements were pretty much overly broad. Tend to focus on what is getting attention at the moment. I am not at all happy with the leaders of my own country. I voted for Trump because he claimed to be the President of peace, then he pulls this. I know the DemonRats are warmongers and virtually no other party has a chance so clearly votes won’t resolve this situation.

                  Just beforehand I’m not religious but I am part-Jewish and it’s totally okay to call Netanyahu a warmongering facist prick who should rot in jail, because that’s what he is. That’s just common sense, which apparently a lot of the world is fucking lacking right now (excuse my French)

                  ^^ if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck and all…

                  You have nothing to apologize for, we are all on this planet together and everyone is allowed to have an opinion. Again yeah, well, Trump is a snake oil salesman. We have our own party in the UK called Reform who are aligned and do exactly the same.

                  They promise everything but give nothing. In the immortal words of JRR Tolkien, “evil cannot create. It only corrupts”. Which is exactly what these morally bankrupt fuckers are doing.

                    @ewo I thought he did ok in the first term, there were some minor skirmishes but nothing on this scale and a lot less than Byedone, but this time around not so well, but perhaps that goes with being a lame duck. He can’t be elected again so might as well piss away every penny of political capital that he had. But really I see the problem in this nation as more systematic than personal. As long as you got a big industry making a lot of money killing people, the killing will continue.
