Downing Street has urged people not to take part in a protest in support of the banned group Palestine Action as police warned they would arrest anyone breaking terrorism laws.

Palestine Action has been banned under terrorism laws, and this weekend a large event protesting against its proscription has been organised by the group Defend Our Juries.

Downing Street will be tried in a future war crimes tribunal.

I really hope so.

But we can't even prosecute Netanyahu. How on earth are we going to go after those enablers of genocide?

i suspect we're going to be forced to forgive them like we've "forgiven" the american govn't of old for what they did to the native americans.

@eldavi
Or giving them medal of honor like they gave to George Bush for invading Iraq and starting the "war on terror" that cost over 4 million lives in the past 24 years

The UK is a fascist state actively engaged in a genocide.

Saw a video of the protest in Japan, it was one of the largest protests in Japan's history, but it is not getting much attention or publicity.

Keir Starmer’s official spokesperson said: "[...] those who seek to support this group may yet not know the true nature of this organisation, but people should be under no illusion this is not a peaceful or non-violent protest group."

Not sure if this is the Guardian's mistake or Number 10's, but the missing colon totally flips the sentence on its head. Emphasis mine.

@faab64 @palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@a.gup.pe History will judge who’s on the right side. However, those who justify genocide seldom are
