involved incendiary devices marked with “free Gaza.”
Look, people... Even if you have good intentions, doing terrorist-like shit to protect people who your opposition already sees as terrorists isn't helping a god damn thing. You're just gonna make them double-down on extermination.
On the other hand, if I didn't want cops thinking it was me, the MAGA Trump fan, who set off the incendiary device, I wouldn't have to be especially bright to think that this would be a good way to get them off my trail.
Agreed there, but I'd say wait until there's an actual person discovered. Anonymous notes left by criminals... aren't trustworthy sources. It could be by someone that is protesting isreal.... or it could be by someone that believes all Palestinians are terrorists, and wants everyone else to believe it too.
Course either way, doesn't matter, it's one crazed person or group, and we can't let him speak for anyone of a whole no matter how much we dislike the other side.
But it’s a pretty good tactic if you’re not actually anti-genocide but looking to both affect the election and tarnish the image of the Palestinians.
I want to believe it was just a setup to make Palestinian supporters look bad, but there are definitely crazies on both sides :/
