Protesters burn Israeli flag outside Democratic convention

Demonstrators in Philadelphia chant ‘Long live the intifada,’ also set light to pro-Bernie Sanders fliers
Protesters set an Israeli flag on fire and chanted “Long live the intifada” outside of the Democratic National Convention site in Philadelphia on Tuesday night, as others clashed with police.
Protesters also set alight pro-Bernie Sanders fliers that were hanging on steel fencing around the site.
I don't agree with israels apartheid but i don't think burning flags adds anything to the discussion. Also wouldnt it be more relevant to do it at a rupublican event considering it is those crazy evangelists who support israels crimes lmao.
Lots of people here have no idea of the difference between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism nor of the ethnic cleansing Zionists wage against Palestinians. What "Israel" has done has been long condemned by even the UN human rights committee but Americans only pretend to care about freedom on a global scale.
Free Palestine. This is especially relevant because the DNC has been especially kind and supportive towards the apartheid regime and settler colonialists.
Good. No other country who commits the crimes against humanity that Israel does to poor Palestinians would ever be allowed to be such a revered ally to the US.
Also, isn't Trump indifferent to Israel? He's trash, but Clinton is a staunch Israel defender. They're best served doing this at the DNC and letting Clinton know being an apologist for apartheid won't stand.
Burning an israeli flag isn't anti-semetic just like burning a saudi arabia flag isn't islamophobic. People can criticize the countries without being labeled like that
