Seriously. What did these people on West Bank do to deserve being arrested and their homes ransacked? What connection to Hamas or the massacre on Oct 7th does this theatre have?

What difference is there between defacing the theatre with menorahs and stars of David vs. a crooked swastika?

I'm not just asking rhetorically... I kind of want answers.

Unless there are consequences for not providing answers, they're not giving any to you.

You can let that be the end of it or not, your choice.

The Israeli forces through acts like these are turning their sacred Jewish symbols into symbols of hate. The black spray-paint on the wall, I can't unsee the connection between that and people scrawling those other symbols representing anti-Semitism.

Very sad especially right after this year's Hanukkah.

Nothing. However, the ransackers wanted an excuse.

Both are Palestinian, that's it. It isn't like there is coordination between the two groups, just that they fall under one ethnic group.

Really only in context to its use in other cases.
