Jewish man arrested for criticising Israel

The clampdown on free speech continues all over the Western world when it comes to any issues which appear to cast Israel in a negative light. Fanatics and pro-Israeli activists are tuned in to immediately responding to any form of legitimate criticism, with some going so far as to want to choose what is, and what is not, legitimate criticism of what is after all a pariah state on the world stage.

This thread could have been so much more interesting if you had only posted the link and asked for opinions.

SD, surely you can sympathise with Israel. As a man who cant take criticism or another view, you are very similar to Israel, dont you think?

Are you mentally unbalanced? Present an alternative view on an issue and it will be debated. The problem is that you appear congenitally unable to do that, in post after post for the last two months.

Congenitally means from birth, not the past two months.

And you are a hypocrite. You accused others of not being able to debate and resorting to insults and then do the same. There is little debate to be had with you. You say one thing and do another.

Ok.

Please compare to the criticism of islam in the public sphere. Whereby some muslims claim laughing at their prophet or god should result in death. A lot of people defended the charlie hebdo killers.

Freedom of speech is not even considered in the countries bordering Israel.

Private security guards over-reacted imho. The guy has been charged with trespass and resisting arrest I believe.
It's not right but there are worse things happening in the world to get steamed up over
