Should The Home Secretary Ban The Flying Of Hezbollah Flags At Sunday's Al Quds March Or More To The Point Should The March Be Allowed At All?

Supporting the Palestinian cause and disagreeing with Israel makes you neither pro terrorist not antisemitic. One needs much more evidence for that. I'm unaware jews have applied for an antipalesinian march. I'd suspect it would be considered. Keeping the peace in both cases is important.

I'm Jewish but object strongly to the way Israel treats Palestinians, the two are not mutually exclusive, and yes Hezbollah did indeed help to defeat Daesh.

Gromits claim was "Hezbollah fighters defeated Islamic State".

That is not true, they were instrumental and assisted but didnt do it on their own.

Either way I still dont think a ban is appropriate. If anything it is a prime opportunity for Special services to get some ID's so why ban it when there is no direct threat to the UK.

Surely with a democracy we have to accept the rough with the smooth and allow all a voice. We may disagree but silencing people we dont like (like the left do in Universities these days) is simply not acceptable.

Whenever I've joined pro-Palestinean marches, I've always sought out people flying the Hezbollah flag and been proud to march under it.

no great secret about Hezbollah fighting Isis

Russia and Syria were in there too. Everyone that righteous ABers hate ... only they'll have to decide if they hate Isis more. Personally, I do, but maybe others will decide Isis weren't so bad after all?

But that is not what Gromit said.

Marvelous, Buenchico...I do hope you never attempted to indoctrinate the pupils.

I think Buenchico was the 'Fat Controller' at some station, Talbot.
Cleared this little mystery up,

Yes! Yes! Just ban them and argue about it afterwards.
Gawd!!!!
