All because Shimon Peres is in town i think. They kept up a shout of "Free palestine now, end Israeli occupation".
A couple tried to hand me leaflets about the cause, and to sign a petition. I politey declined, as i'm not against Israel.
I think they went a tad too far in Gaza recently by using white phosphorus, which combusts as soon as it makes contact with
oxygen. Which is why it's used in tracer rounds and as a means to light up targets. However it can cause severe chemical burns, if not
washed off immediatly. It's not however a warcrime, as white phosphorus is legal. Though i don't think any nation should be using it in shell rounds. I was however surprised by the fact Thames Valley police did not ask me to delete images or move on. Photographs under the cut.
