The deadliest terrorist attack in history against British subjects was carried out by Zionists.

Never forget this fact.

Menachem Begin, responsible for the King David Hotel bombing, even became Israeli Prime Minister because Israeli society rewards violence.
In 2006, the Israelis unveiled a plaque at the site of the King David Hotel to commemorate the attack.

A bit like if Al Qaeda would unveil a commemorative plaque at the site of the Twin Towers.

Netanyahu attended this celebration of terrorism.
The plaque even blamed the victims for not evacuating fast enough. The same way Israelis think you deserve to die for not leaving quickly enough after a roof knock.

It was so offensive the British govt officially protested & the Israelis changed the text— but only in English, not Hebrew.

Police: you have the right to tell someone you've been arrested

Me: yes, I'd like to do that

Police: Due to the nature of the alleged offense your calls are withheld

Me: but you just said I have the right to inform someone

Police: the right can be waived

Lol. Basically "shut your mouth, you have no rights". This is what their idea of "'counterterrorism" means and what laws like this lead to.
Another great exchange:

Police: you have the right to know why you've been arrested

Me: yes, can you please tell me why. What is section 12 and what "prescribed orgs"? What is being alleged?

Police: we're just the arresting officers / you'll be told when you're questioned
Imagine you're taken off a plane for fucking "terrorism" and this is all the info you're left to go off of lol.

Go sit in the urine-smelling cell in solitary, where we film and record you sleeping, eating, peeing. And wait around for 15 hours until we decide to enlighten you with what it is we claim you've done wrong.

Unfortunately, it seems we were not successful at denazifying Germans like this one
Schools could indeed lose their status as protected civilian objects if used for military purposes— but the civilians inside do not. You cannot justify murdering over 100 people in order to kill 19, who are not even in Hamas. The israelis just publish random photos and names:

Yes, precisely. A ceasefire is just the first step. Then the settlers must return to their countries and hand over the land. All of it. We will accept nothing less. The fact that a ceasefire is so controversial and difficult for the West shows they are hell-bent on murder.
No Arabs were involved in the negotiation of a Partition Plan for Palestine. It was imposed. Then when the Palestinians signed Oslo, they got stabbed in the back and Israel said "no two state solution". Fine, but that goes both ways. When you annul a contract the other party is also released from it.
This goes without saying.

BREAKING: CCTV footage of Israeli soldiers gang-raping a Palestinian hostage at Sde Teiman published by Israel's Ch12

The soldiers put up their riot shields to hide their actions from the camera.
(auto-translation to English)
This is the same victim that was hospitalized over a week ago with a ruptured bowel, a severe injury to the anus, lung damage and broken ribs.

According to Israeli media the victim is not a Hamas militant and did not participate in Oct 7. They were kidnapped in March.

You'll never guess.

The same judge from Assange's High Court hearings, Johnson, is the one that issued Tommy Robinson an arrest warrant— which only comes into effect in October, despite him being detained under the terrorism act and fleeing the country on the eve of his court date.

Can you imagine Assange being given special treatment like that? A delayed arrest warrant? Bail? House arrest? Being allowed to leave the UK?
Assange, despite his failing health, was shown no mercy by any of the judges regarding bail or house arrest at any stage of court proceedings. The preferential treatment here is very clear, and baffling, given Robinson has helped promote racism and encouraged riots in England.
The charge is contempt of court, but he was indeed arrested, albeit briefly, under the terrorism act.

Regardless, Robinson left the country right before court. Compare that to how Assange was persecuted for seeking political asylum, which is a human right, and then given a maximum sentence for a bail infraction.
