Re: london turned into middle east battleground the AA grumpy column

Firstly, Oscar jumps to the defence of Gordon Brown.
As you quite rightly said, Blair left this mess and immigration is also down to the Torie's. Anyone who believes that if the Tory's get in, things will change, then they are mad.
Let me remind you that when Brown took over No 10, one of the very first things he announced was that he would curb immigration. There was the usual hooting from the Tory's and Brown was accused of being racist. I remember his response and his exact words were 'To curb immigration is common sense, not racism'.

Anyone has the right to demonstrate. I don't believe these demonstrations are about immigration. This is about Israel bombing the shyte out of innocent children in Gaza. It's fact that we have a large population of Palistinian refugee's here and what they are seeing, is their homeland and family's being murdered on the news.
How else can they protest?
Having said that, their riots are inappropriate as Gordon Brown was the first to condemn Israel and called for an immediate cease-fire, so he is actually backing them not against them.
London is not alone..There are thousands taking to the streets in protest all over the world. The Palistinians need to know that Britain has condemned Israel and supports them.
If they need to sorm any Embassy, it should be America. Sorry that's not my-self being anti-American, just America is the only country that is continuing to back Israel.
