I think you're right, the fact he's started multiple threads with the sole purpose of inciting hatred against Muslims is clear evidence of this.

Oh, hang on.

More lies from Filly

More conflation of criticism of state of Israel with Jew hate

Filly supports Israel because he hates Muslims and wants them dead

Relax, I know you lack the capability.
Of course i can't lockdown a thread but neither do i report what you say to the mods, either, which is your inference. By all means defend Netanyahu's ongoing quest for vengeance against Palestine, but try not to descend to the level of mot while you're at it.
 
Is it legal to say the words “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” in Germany? The answer appears to be yes: you can shout them from the rooftops in German, English, Arabic or Hebrew, so long as a court accepts that you are not doing so to indicate support for Hamas or its murderous assault of 7 October.

There are legitimate concerns that the “from the river” slogan of Palestinian liberation holds close and painful associations with the terror of Hamas. Germany could address these by talking openly. Everyone’s pain deserves respect and consideration, and if people feel traumatised by something, that should matter. But we can’t let our traumas define our view of the world. There are plenty of ways to imagine a free Palestine that don’t involve genocide. Even if the slogan was once associated with Hamas, it doesn’t have to be today. There are people in Germany who are investing “from the river to the sea” with the accumulated dignity and hope of nonviolent protest movements. But they have to be allowed to talk, and Germany has to start listening. @The Guardian
 
Marieha Hussain, 37, who had carried a picture showing the faces of the then prime minister Rishi! Sunak and home secretary Suella Braverman superimposed on coconuts under a palm tree in November 2023,and denied the prosecution’s allegation that the placard she held at a pro-Palestine protest was “racially abusive”, has been found not guilty of a racially aggravated public order offence.

Outside court after the hearing, the teacher, of High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, said: “The laws on hate speech must serve to protect us more but this trial shows that these rules are being weaponised to target ethnic minorities. Nearly a year on from the genocide in Gaza, and despite this trial, I’m more determined than ever to continue using my voice to defend Palestine.”

In his closing speech, Rajiv Menon KC, defending, said: “This prosecution of Ms Hussain is … a disturbing attack on the right of freedom of expression; the right to peaceful protest that did not risk in any shape or form violence or public disorder; the right to anti-racists to criticise members of their own race for pursuing racist policies and using racist rhetoric; the right to satirise our politicians; the right to mock and tease and make fun of our politicians in a light-hearted way that Marieha Hussain attempted to do with her placard. That Marieha Hussain of all people is being prosecuted for a racially aggravated offence whilst the likes of Suella Braverman and Nigel Farage and Stephen Yaxley-Lennon – aka Tommy Robinson – and Frank Hester are seemingly free to make inflammatory and divisive statements … is, I’m afraid, incomprehensible to many people.”

Apart from the Usual Suspects in this forum, obviously.
 
In the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, more than 1,000 pro-Palestinian protesters gathered outside the embassy of the United States, demanding that Washington, Israel’s top military supplier and ally, stop sending weapons to Israel. “We are appealing to the hearts of all the leaders of the world to rise up and move and liberate them [Palestinians] from the oppression carried out by Israel,” a demonstrator told Al Jazeera.“This is no longer a religious issue but truly a humanitarian issue – not just for Muslims but all who claim to be Muslim,” said another protester, holding his child on his shoulders and carrying a Palestinian flag.

In the Philippines, dozens of left-wing activists protested near the US embassy in Manila, where police prevented them from getting closer to the seaside compound.

In Cape Town in South Africa, hundreds walked to parliament, chanting: “Israel is a racist state!” and “We are all Palestinian!” Pro-Gaza marches were also planned Saturday in Johannesburg and Durban.

In Caracas, hundreds of pro-Palestinian demonstrators protested outside the United Nations’s headquarters for Venezuela, carrying a giant Palestinian flag. They delivered a petition to the UN calling for an end to the “genocide” of the Palestinians.

Police used tear gas and water cannons to disperse protesters in Italy’s capital Rome as their demonstration turned violent, officials said. Several thousand demonstrated peacefully on Saturday afternoon, chanting “Free Palestine, Free Lebanon!” They waved Palestinian flags and held banners calling for an immediate stop to the conflict. The rally had been calm until a smaller group tried to push the rally towards the centre of the city, despite a ban by local authorities who had refused to authorise protests, citing security concerns.

Some 40,000 pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched through central London on Saturday, one of its biggest rallies in a year. “Unfortunately, in spite of all our goodwill, the Israeli government does not take any notice, and they just go ahead and continue their atrocities in Gaza, now also in Lebanon and in Yemen, and also probably in Iran,” Agnes Kory, a protester in London, told the Reuters news agency. “And our government, our British government, unfortunately is just paying lip service and carries on supplying weapons to Israel,” she added.

In Dublin, several hundred people took to the streets, waving Palestinian flags and chanting: “Ceasefire now!”

In France, thousands of people marched in Paris, Lyon, Toulouse, Bordeaux and Strasbourg to express solidarity with the Palestinians. Reporting from the protest site at Paris’s Republique Plaza, Al Jazeera’s Natacha Butler said demonstrators expressed frustration the war had been ongoing for more than a year and the “international community is simply not doing anything”. “They feel that France isn’t doing enough to protect civilians and the people who are really suffering,” she said.

About 5,000 people joined a pro-Palestinian protest in Madrid, brandishing signs with messages such as “Boycott Israel!”

In Washington, more than 1,000 protesters demonstrated outside the White House on Saturday, demanding the US stop providing weapons and aid to Israel. One man attempted to set himself on fire at the protest, succeeding in lighting his left arm ablaze before bystanders and police extinguished the flames, the AFP news agency reported.

In the northern German city of Hamburg, about 950 people staged a peaceful demonstration with many waving Palestinian and Lebanese flags or chanting “Stop the Genocide!” the DPA news agency reported, citing a police count.

A pro-Palestinian demonstration in the Swiss city of Basel drew several thousand people, the Keystone-ATS news agency reported.

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian demonstrators also marched on the Israeli embassy in Athens, which was heavily guarded by riot police.

More rallies and candlelight vigils are planned Sunday in cities across Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and the Americas.
 
Nobody marched in support of Israel's far-right Fascist government, as far as i know.

I see you have posted about the pro Palestine protests.

Do you not think you might have mentioned the appalling attack on Oct 7 which killed many innocent people?

Do you have sympathy for those people and families?

A thread commemorating the attacks would be apt, but if started it folk would accuse me of hypocrisy. Maybe you'd like to do so? See my initial posts in reaction to last years attacks on the 'Israel under attack' thread.

I think by posting about pro Palestinian protests today, you are being inflammatory.
