Quote:'I need to be more clued up': Students quizzed at pro-Palestine protest reveal how little theyArchived Daily Mail Article:
know about Israel-Hamas conflict and don't even know terror group launched bloody slaughter
on October 7 - as others insist killers are 'freedom fighters'
*Activists denied Hamas massacre while others voiced support for terror group
'Students who were interviewed at a pro-Palestine protest admitted they 'need to be more clued
up' about the Israel-Hamas conflict and even confessed to not being aware that the terror group
launched a bloody massacre on October 7.
Some activists who attended a London rally on November 4 denied that Hamas were terrorists
despite them being a proscribed terror group in the UK, meaning it is a criminal offence to declare
support for it. Others described the Hamas attacks as a 'beacon of hope' and claimed the 'continued
existence of Israel is a war crime'.
On October 7, Hamas terrorists blitzed into Israel, slaughtering 1,400 victims and taking 240 hostages
in a rampage that shocked the world. Israel has vowed to wipe out Hamas and Palestinian officials
have said 10,569 people have been killed.
Then we'll do lunch.
Among those interviewed by Jewish charity Campaign Against Antisemitism were two young women
- one of whom denied Hamas's barbaric invasion took place while the other admitted to not knowing
what had happened. In a video shared to X/Twitter, an interviewer stops the girls and asks: 'When
Hamas invaded Israel on October 7, what was your initial reaction to that?'
The girl on the left, holding up a home-made sign condemning the British Government, replies: 'I don't
believe they did, did they?' Looking at her friend for reassurance, she asks: 'Hamas?' But her friend on
the right replies: 'I think so?'
She continues: 'Honestly I think I need to be a bit more clued up on everything that's going on. So I feel
like I'm not really qualified to answer that too well.'
Despite bloody evidence of men, women and children being murdered and captured by Hamas, the
woman on the left adds: 'I mean, I'm not sure if I've seen anything that shows that that's actually
happened or that's correct.'
My Mom Dropped Me Off.
The camera filming then pans around to her home-made sign, with cut-out images and drawings, reading:
'Rishi, Keir, U must be invertebrates cause ur spineless! Call 4 a ceasefire'.
The two women were joined by others who confidently backed Hamas despite the atrocities.
One woman said: 'It's controversial but I think Hamas are freedom fighters.'
Ilhan Omar Said It, So It Must Be True.
When asked if the UK has made the wrong decision by making Hamas a proscribed terror organisation,
another woman said: 'Of course. It's not Hamas that are terrorists. It's America that are terrorists. Israel
are terrorists, not Hamas.'
A third said: 'Honestly, it showed signs, it was resistance against the occupation against the Palestinians.
Honestly it was a beacon of hope for me. To me, it was them fighting back and showing resistance.
Another raging activist said: 'The continued existence of Israel is a war crime.'
Ilhan Omar Said It, So It Must Be True... Again.
And in more support for Hamas, a protester claimed: 'They are freedom fighters. They are not terrorists as
the media portrays them to be. They are fighting for the right to their land. It's their land. They have the
right to self-defence and they are not terrorists. They are absolutely not.'
A spokesman for Campaign Against Antisemitism said: 'This footage showcases the toxic combination of
ignorance and support for terrorism that motivates too many of the protesters on these marches.
'Is it any surprise that opinions such as these, accompanied by genocidal chanting, anti-Semitic signage
and calls for violence, are terrifying the Jewish community?
'Worse still, the demonstrations are coming just after the worst anti-Semitic atrocity since the Holocaust,
when Jews are feeling particularly vulnerable. 'This is why we have called on the police to use their existing
powers under Section 13 of the Public Order Act to ban these marches. London cannot continue to be a
no-go zone for Jewish people week after week.'
Outraged social media users also showed their dismay at the comments made by the protesters.
One wrote: 'Shocking. The girls who don't know if Hamas attacked Israel are embarrassing.'
A second posted: 'I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry or be in shock. I wish I was in total disbelief that
people in the UK could say these things….but I no longer am. It's shameful!!'
A third commented: 'Can't believe, what I am hearing.'
And a fourth added: 'Pure ignorance.'...'
