Gonna say it, this REALLY feels like a case of the news cherry-picking what parts of a protest they show. Between the unreasonable viewpoint that’s directly adjacent to a very sensible and popular viewpoint and the fact we KNOW the media have a very vested interest in trying to push pro-genocide narratives (such as anti-Israel protests being pro-terrorist)…
Yeah, even someone as gullible as me? I’m not buying this.
This is the telegraph.
Imagine Boris Johnson dressed in tweed and living in a cottage in Devon
That’s their reader base
UK news sources are very prone to behaving like that, if you ever spent time in r/GreenAndPleasant it’s shocking how much UK news you dont hear about. Anything vaguely anti-crown just doesn’t get coverage. Or protests in general.
It’s part of why they media bias bot is laughable given it considers BBC unbiased
Really? You love militants who would probably rather kill you than have a coffee with you?
What the hell are you even talking about? Where do you people get the idea that Hezbollah and every other Islamist entity is like ISIS? Do you know a single thing about Lebanon???
I mean, they are picking militants who are opposing genocide. Choosing ‘would rather kill you’ over ‘are killing you’ is logical in a limited context.
Oh, trust me, those militants are very much pro-genocide, they just haven’t quite figured out a way to be successful at it.
Oh, trust me
No thanks, guy who thinks the average person in Hezbollah wants to inexplicably kill a random British person rather than have coffee with them.

Among the placards on display on the London march was one showing a silhouette of Nasrallah, with the words “We will not abandon Palestine”.
One example. One.
Others declared: “Hezbollah are not terrorists” and “I love Hezbollah”.
How many? How many out of the entire crowd?
The placards were on prominent display, despite the Metropolitan Police warning on Friday that it would crack down on any displays of support for prescribed terror groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
What does “prominent display” mean in the context of a public protest?
They had two photos of such signs, clearly from the same group of people. Which must be a pretty small group considering that is the entirety of their evidence.
Frankly, I’m weighing deleting this article as misinformation.
“Allah is above them”
Maybe, but the flying spaghetti monster is even higher!
