    @Jb Walshe: Kneecap , and lots of other populists, have taken a very one sided view on these things. Why are they only criticising one side? Why no mention of the Palestinian support for Hamas and their slitting Jews throats and raping their women?

    @Tom O’ Donnell: what has happened in Israel and to Israeli people is horrific. However, it is not a genocide. That’s why Kneecap come out in support of Palestine.
