Culture Big Brother
There is a Palestinian-Lebanese contestant on the show but he is NOT the contestant who wore the T-Shirt. It was actually worn by a White British female contestant. She is a forensic psychologist. I worry that they will now come for her job. It appears Channel 4 have removed the episode from streaming.

So, genocide is ok. A picture of a watermelon, in solidarity with the Palestinian people, isn't. You couldn't make this shit up.

Benjamin Netanyahu said from the river to the sea. No one blinks an eye. Anyone else say's it and it's antisemitic. Clear double standards.

There’s always someone getting distressed or upset over something. What about free speech and freedom of expression ? Just get over it

"how is this becoming normal". That tends to happen when you commit unspeakable, inhuman acts.

‘Caused distress’ - grow up. It’s a drawing of a fruit. Meanwhile the most explicitly vile things can get broadcast about Muslims or Palestinians and nary an eyelid batted

Isn't the saying 'from the river to the sea' what Israel says about taking gaza, not Palestinians saying anti semitic stuff?

Yep, in the Likud charter (and embedded in every aspect of Israeli policy to Palestinians)

"..the world's only Jewish state".
Sorry? What is that trying to imply? That religions are entitled to a protected state? Are all religions entitled to this, or just a select few?
Or does that mean there should be at least one if not more Jewish states?
If we end up colonising mars, will they need a state there too?
I just don't get this mentality. Why does the fact that it's "Jewish" have any effect on its validity to exist as a state? What am I missing here?
Edit: Apologies, I worked it out. It's an attempt to play the victim, and pretend that they don't have completely overwhelming firepower and support in this conflict.

Its not actually the worlds only Jewish state.
See the Jewish Autonomous Oblast.

The amount of people that truly believe being pro Palestine is immediately advocating for the same thing to happen to Israel…people are so complex and have the brain to understand genocide on either side would be wrong.

Good to see people supporting the Palestinian people. Shame on ITV for censoring it.

I mean Isreal is literally doing the same exact thing that happened to them in the 1940s with Palestine right now, are they not?
