Nothing wrong with it at all . I'm all for freedom of expression and you appear to have justified the chant with complete clarity .

Probably as it's a proxy for thinly veiled anti-semitism.

Sometimes a simple picture tells you everything.

Strange that Reformnazi party members are all big supporters of Israel? For now….

I just dislike racism. Often that's the case with 'progressives', also. Though last night's shameful occurrences in Brum seems to have passed them by :(

Yeah ok weird uncle, that’s why you support an openly racist party.

just dislike racism.

The IDF are an army, not a race.

I imagine "Death to Hamas" is a common refrain in Israel.

the chant is a bit crass and bad taste to me,they have allegedly committed many war crimes and hard 'to wish them well'

Crass is an accurate assessment Pa, It's also a bit basic, doubt it would win many awards for creativity, or sell many cd's if released.

Im guessing mandatory service for most people is not a thing with hamas, while with the IDF it is. that changes the picture a bit. but my gripe with the chant is that what is the point of it? the protestors are clearly not trying to convince anyone of their cause by saying this, it seems to have the opposite affect and they don't care. they largely seem to care about moral grandstanding than actually trying to change people's minds.
