Freedom of speech doesn’t give you the right to cause financial harm to universities or take over their property, simply because you don’t agree with the country’s international policy. Stop encouraging behavior that is illegal in both your country and the U.K.

The alleged rights of land ownership in Palestine do not extrapolate to London. If these are students who can’t understand that then they ought not to be students. They are students who are only entitled to reside on campus whilst observing university rules, which they erroneously failed to appreciate. It is that sense of self-entitlement that results in the majority of the population disliking them. So, to those of your supporting their action, go somewhere else.

[@sarafernandezsancho]

​«No innocent civilians» is what Israeli goverment & a large % of its population say about palestinians in Gaza. If you really stand with Israel, you must believe what the israeli president said ("is an entire nation out there that is responsible"), what the israeli PR said (he compared Gazans with the amalek, that according to the bible israelis must completely annihilate) and other members of the goverment (for example, the one that said palestinian civilians were "human animals") So no, you can't be pro-Israel and pro-palestinians at the same time. You are pro-genocide of the palestinian population inside Gaza or you are against it... And btw, most people in Europe (and around the world) wants the liberation of the Palestinian population, and the land back to them.
