Palestinian flag over US town divides locals

A teen's request to let the Palestinian flag fly over the North Andover Common drew support and condemnation as the town approved.

Private grounds is one thing. This however is unacceptable and a complete disgrace particularly on the same flagpole with the American POW flag.

Opinions?

Did you read the article?
They've been displaying Israel's flag for a month.
Fair is fair, especially since the Palestinians are
suffering far more brutality from Israel than Israel
did from Hamas.
This Jewish leader offers the real disgusting act....
Excerpted....
Rabbi Idan Irelander disagreed, telling WCVB: "The Israeli flag was flown in support for an American ally who experienced massacre, unlike the Palestinian flag that, to many of us represents—again, I'm sorry—Hamas."

He doesn't sound sorry...just bigoted & vengeful.

Palestinians are humans, and deserve dignity and recognition.​

I don't see what the POW flag has to do with anything.

I did see that they had been flying an Israeli flag in the same spot previously. It looks like those who have ties to Palestine were looking for equal time.

The current hysteria surrounding anything Palestinian reminds me of post-9/11, when anti-Arab and anti-Muslim fervor was rampant.

It's not a Hamas flag; it's a Palestinian flag.

My thoughts? People need to calm down.

Your "recognized country" is a terrorist
state that is massacring civilians.

Show me where Israel is on any US, EU, or UK government listed as a terrorist state.

A terrorist based flag shouldn't even be on the same flagpole with either the US flag nor The MIA/POW flag.

Oh, countries that support terrorism & war
crimes of their own & of allies don't list
themselves or allies on such lists?
I am shocked....shocked, I tell you.

How did you decide Palestinians = Hamas?

The IRA terrorists were Irish. Is the Irish flag therefore a terrorist flag?

 

[Revoltingest]

Well, they already had one terrorist, ie, Israel's.
But this flag is for Palestinians, who aren't a
terrorist organization. Are you aware that
Hamas has a flag of its own?

Wow.

Big "mask slip", there.

"Palestine" is not a terrorist group, objectively.

But his view is common in USA among
anti-Palestinian groups.

Some people seem very keen these days to out themselves as little more than ethno-nationalists. It's worrying.

I'm sure they do.

Yes! The Irish are a drunken terrorist group! IMOP

Well, the Irish do love the Palestinians and support them because they know what it's like to be oppressed, occupied and ethnically cleansed like the Palestinians are currently suffering:

As Israel bombs Gaza, Ireland’s enduring support of Palestine gets stronger

Writers, politicians, and activists in Ireland, often an outlier in the West on the Middle East war, call for peace.

I'm sure they do.

They do. Care to address the point now?
