Strange, I thought I had called some of Kneecap's onstage comments 'crass and wrong' - particularly the 'kill your MP' one. I haven't commented on the Hezbollah flag, although I think it was a stupid thing to do - just for provocation. I have no time for 'my enemy's enemy is my friend' regardless of who they are bollocks - or for gestures that imply that.

(But proscription of 'terrorist organisations' is a political decision unrelated to threat or how reactionary or violent those organisations might be. The history of the staged proscription of Hamas shows that clearly. The UK government has ended up with a position that could make large swathes of the Gazan population 'legitimate' targets for Israeli mass murder - the 'Hamas doctors, journalists, sewage workers, police and accountants' and that is obscene.)

I do though agree with their stance on Palestine and think it is a warped world where one of them is charged with 'terror offences' when child murderers, torturers, ethnic cleansers, butchers of doctors, nurses and journalists, fascist apartheid promoters and their enablers in the US, UK, Germany and elsewhere walk free. If that makes me a self righteous **** in your eyes, then I'll wear that badge with pride.
