Intake Too   10 #25 Posted July 26, 2014 Everyone has a right to march but why march on Tramlines weekend?  Didnt they know it was happening?  Maybe so they could manipulate the figures and lie about how many attended the demo? If you have 100s of people passing by some will stop and hey presto, numbers magically increased. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
JFKvsNixon   11 #26 Posted July 26, 2014 They have rockets which they keep firing at innocent Israelis. Thats why Israel is fighting back.  The are rockets being fired into Israel, which is 100% wrong, but to punish the Palestinian people en masse is also 100% wrong.  Hamas and the Israeli government are the bad people, and their populations are the victims. If we are to pick a side, I say we should side with the victims, the ordinary people of Israel and Palestine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

peakexpat   10 #28 Posted July 26, 2014 Whilst my opinions are the same regarding the subject I fail to see what a small scale march in Sheffield City Centre will do? Whilst it will show unity against the oppressors what more than that will it achieve?  It is terrible it really is however to be heard and seen it would require thousands to March in London not tens or hundreds in Sheffield.
