  Boo, PA did right by protesting Israel’s genocide against Palestinians

    The absolutely did but the problem is that what they did in order to protest was a crime. A pretty big crime too, frankly they’re lucky they didn’t get shot.

    I have absolutely no idea how those geniuses thought that this would be a good tactic.

    I fully support a movement and I think it’s ridiculous to call them terrorists, but what they did was beyond moronic.

      Saboteurs in WW2 were criminals. Nazis were following the law.

      Well, sometiems you have to commit a crime to protest an even bigger crime - warcrimes like genocide.

      In that light, the removal of my comment appears unwarranted. For anyone curious (or whoever reported it), if I recall correctly, it expressed support for PA.

    They did wrong by breaking into an RAF base though. I can’t imagine anyone with any agenda getting away with that.

      Hardly a terrorist action though is it? Breaking in to throw around some red paint.

      This comment can see you arrested for expressing support of a proscribed terrorist organisation. This could have you jailed for up to 6 months and/or a fine of up to £5,000

      And that fact is fucking stupid.
