As Britain prepares to commemorate Armistice Day and remember the victims of the atrocities of WW2‚ we must make sure the victims of the zionist state are not forgotten
Several other uni groups including those from Nottingham and Lincoln shared the announcement on social-media platforms. The term intifada (which means uprising) appears in their messages - some see it as solidarity while others interpret it as call-to-action
Last years Remembrance Day saw massive pro-palestine marches in London with counter-protests leading to street clashes. Then-PM Rishi Sunak spoke against both far-right groups and hamas supporters for their disrespect towards Armed Forces. However this year no large-scale demonstrations are expected in the capital
