I haven't been on a march since the first few, mainly because the strength of feeling seemed  to be falling on totally deaf governmental ears.

However I want to join in this one, partly because of the terrifying number of people who joined the recent right wing march, and partly because of the ridiculous definition of Palestine Action as a terrorist group.

So I shall be making a Plasticine Action sign (being old and tottery and not particularly wishing to be arrested and dragged off and put in a cell).

Is there a group of people going from East Dulwich? I no longer belong to the Labour Party, so I don't want to join that group.

ETA: I just found out there is, so no need to answer the last bit!

This is disgusting, given what happened last week. 

The link says "Israel is continuing to intensify its genocide"... there are major peace talks underway and it's possible they might result the end of this current conflict. 

But hey, why let that stop anyone indulging in a bit of Jew hatred on a Saturday afternoon?

Sorry, Sue, I'm fond of you but I can't not say anything on this matter, my blood is boiling and my heart is hurting too much over all the 'nothing to see here' antisemitism in this country.

But being against what the government in Israel is doing to Palestine is not being anti Jewish people?

I lived with a Jewish man for seven years.

I don't understand. 

It's the same thinking as kills and maims Palestinian people, including children, for what Hamas does.

Jewish friends of mine are going on this march.

Unfortunately there will always be unhinged individual people who perpetrate atrocities, whether associated with particular groups or not.

ETA: And of course there is antisemitism in this country. My ex partner was very aware of it. He couldn't understand why anybody could hate him because of his Jewishness.

But that is a different issue, isn't it?

Yes, I hear people saying there are Jews on the march and it's not about Jews it's about Israel etc but I think that's a convenient truth for people who stand side-by-side with other protesters who are patently anti semitic. 

These are people who celebrate Oct 7th and last week's attack on Yom Kippur. 

Tell me there is not on single Jew hater on these protests. And why the protest when serious peace talks are underway? And did you read the article I posted? Do you honestly think that none of those medics have ever been on a pro Palestine march?

Removed Palestine action, as I meant to include all pro pal groups
