Well at least we know for sure what side these people would have been on when 6 million Jews were exterminated during the Holocaust.

As far as I'm aware, statistically, nearly all people similar to "these people" would have been fighting against the Germans in WW2.... |  |

Blimey, from throwing some paint to endorsing the Holocaust. That's one hell of a leap! |  |

People protesting for something they believe in and doing it peacefully i get but when it comes to vandalism and public order offences its a no from me. I always think it diminishes the point you are trying to get across. [Post edited 27 Feb 18:39]

I think people who want to "Globalize the intifada" (a call to murder Jews around the world) and put an inverted red triangle (which signifies violence against Israel and against Zionists and Jewish people more broadly) would definitely be on the side of the Nazis. | |

Is throwing paint not peaceful protest? And given it was easily cleaned, is it really vandalism?
The thing is, this kind of protest gets noticed. That's the point. If they'd just held up a few banners it wouldn't be making the news and you and I wouldn't have heard of it. | |

They got the point across. Globalise the intifada is a call for violence against Jews around the world and the Bondi Beach massacre and the Heaton Synagogue killings preempted this joint statement from the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police and the Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police

The inverted red triangle is a Hamas kill sign.

It gets noticed yes but people then look at the protest and the people who did it in a negative way. | | | |

Some people will see it in the negative, but not all. You have to weigh that up with the much larger amount seeing it.
There's no point to a protest if no-one sees it. Even if people see the protest as negative, it still makes them think about the message itself. And I'd say most seeing it as a negative will be the ones who don't agree with the message anyway. | |

I'm glad all good protests in history were quiet and easily ignored. |  | | |

If these people think that Churchill was a war criminal just wait until they find out about the bloke he saved us from. | |

Of course Churchill was an implacable foe against Hitler and Fascism, but it might be interesting to ask the Bengali people about what happened in 1943.. | |

Compare the daubings of a lone individual to the actual genocide committed by Churchill. He is not a hero, he was a murderer. |  |

Aren’t you the bloke whose last post before taking a five year break was to say that when the Srebrenica genocide took place there were good people on both sides? | |

Churchill was a moron. Look at his record in WWI. He committed us to the Italian front which was possibly the most incompetent decision of the entirety of WWIi, thousands of men put through a meat grinder. If he had listened to the Americans the war would have been over in 43. And that's before we get into his racist imperialism. Read a book. | |

If you think about it, Hitler and Churchill had quite a bit in common. Both racists and sh1t painters. | |

Churchill had many flaws but to compare him to Hitler is mental. |  | | |
