    Basically what I think of most pro-Palestinian activists:

    vandal terror-supporters that can only destroy things, support forces in the world that only destroy things, and couldn’t built anything if their lives depended on it.

    (and essentially have as their main goal to destroy a functional country in the middle east and to replace it with a failed state)

    Anything that touches their cause is toxic and doomed.

    EDIT: Very generous whoever decided to give me that gold award. Thanks.

    EDIT2: Thank you very much for the other award. Much appreciated.

    EDIT3: Omg another one. you are too kind. From another opponent of the forces of nihilism that I described above.

    EDIT4: Another user endowed with a heavenly virtue of generosity has bestowed upon me another award. Thank you very much.

    Continuing to do business with that state and its rancid settler movement *will* damage its reputation. Western governments and businesses will be forced to adjust to changing demographics. Between younger generations who despise that country and ever larger minority communities they have nowhere to hide.

  3. I mean I think given the well documented popular opposition to the Israeli government in this country it’s more likely to improve their reputation at least here.

    Barclays have never really had a good reputation, I remember them being boycotted during the Apartheid regime over their business dealings.

    But much as I want an end to the killing in Gaza I am uncomfortable with these attempts to change company policies by direct action, it’s not something to be encouraged.

  5. and this is an example of why there needs to be reform of the House of Lords: its currently stuffed with (mostly conservative) failed political cronies, aristocrats and hangers on who do little to deserve political office and all the perks that come with it.Â
