UK Labels 'Palestine Action' Terrorists, Ignores State Terrorism
The British Parliament, CBS News breathlessly informs us, has designated 'Palestine Action' a terrorist organization. This move, framed as curbing 'repeated demonstrations,' comes after the group vandalized weapons factories supplying Israel. One might wonder why critical infrastructure supporting a state accused of genocide by the ICJ is deemed less problematic than spray paint and broken
windows. This isn't about 'terrorism'; it's about criminalizing dissent that challenges the Western-backed arms pipeline to Israel. The UK's 'sweeping powers' are conveniently applied to activists, not to the governments or corporations that profit from the destruction of Gaza. It appears 'terrorism' is now defined by who you inconvenience, not who you kill.
