This is exactly the problem with this conflict. "Team Israel" doesn't care about Palestinian suffering, and "Team Palestine" mocks the notion that Israelis murdered and kidnapped by Hamas are worth caring about. Stop treating this like a fucking soccer game!

In London, a pack of rabid Muslims hunts for Jewish blood. Mohammed Hijab and Ali Dawah openly threaten Jews with violence, while the police do nothing. This is what happens when the state kowtows to Islam. Concerns over Palestine are a very thin veil for Islamic antisemitism.
