Boo, PA did right by protesting Israel’s genocide against Palestinians
They did wrong by breaking into an RAF base though. I can’t imagine anyone with any agenda getting away with that.
(I’ll still support them and anyone else who wants to stick it to Netenyahu)
This comment can see you arrested for expressing support of a proscribed terrorist organisation. This could have you jailed for up to 6 months and/or a fine of up to £5,000
And that fact is fucking stupid.

Hardly a terrorist action though is it? Breaking in to throw around some red paint.
It does fall under the (completely bullshit) definition of an act of terrorism though.
Come on, “throwing around red paint” is quite misleading, no?
They poured it into the engines of multiple RAF jets, destroying those engines. That’s several million in damages, and a lot of downtime.
And legally speaking, it absolutely was a terrorist act.
I really think we need to distinguish between terrorism in the sense of “are they going to keep blowing people up?” and “terrorism” in the sense of “are my taxes going to go up because of this?” I feel like the word is being stretched for the second example…
It is now - but yeah my heart bleeds for those poor RAF jets, they’re definitely what’s important here, not making the word ‘terrorist’ a meaningless empty word that can be used to justify anything at all.
Of course defence is important. How separated from reality are you for you to think it isn’t?
Sabotaging UK defence is obviously a bad thing, and it shouldn’t be taken lightly.
