Two Metro Vancouver women say they were threatened by two men who were seen carrying Palestinian flags on Monday night.
The friends had just left a vigil to honour Israel’s dead, and had no idea they were being followed until they were confronted.
“You could see the hate in his eyes,” one of them told CTV News.
They’ve agreed to share their story, provided CTV News doesn’t reveal their identities, because they fear for their safety.
When they were confronted, the woman told the men to “go away.”
But they didn’t, and yelled at the women in Arabic.
“They told me that he will rape me, and my pants will bleed, and I would remember it for a very long time,” one recalled calmly.
“The younger one, he said that he would slice me,” she said.
imagine posting comments this retarded. change your rhetoric instead of generalizing to the benefit of people who want to write off others as enemies
Huh? When this started I was moreso on the side of anti-israel. I was quite upset at the support for Israel coming from the governments. Then Hamas did their thing at the festival and I immediately changed my mind that Palestine is far more evil than Israel
I used to follow polling. Then I started to wonder how the current president’s numbers (any president) could change so drastically week by week. Like, he signed one bill, how did he go from meh to great for that one thing? Then next week he’s trash.
Is it that some people make sweeping conclusions using only the most recent thing in the news? Does everything else go away?
I guess it’s better to be willing to change your mind than be completely hard headed.
If the Palestinians didn’t want to be associated with Hamas then they should stop supporting them.
These kinds of generalizations do not help the cause on either side. It’s only going to help fan the flames. Plenty of Palestinians are just regular citizens who live under the tyrannical rule of Hamas, but would much rather prefer peace. May I ask, do you have personal involvement in this conflict at all? Do you see comments like this helping Israelis, Jews, or Palestinians reaching peace and stability?
I do not have a personal stake or involvement in any of this. What I do know is that the point of my comment is to help… fan the flames to flare it up.
Maybe they should ask the people raping, murdering, and pillaging, if they’d be so kind as to leave.
Who wants to try first?
Maybe they shouldn’t have voted for people who are now raping, murdering, and pillaging to be their elected government.
Solid argument, can’t see an issue with that.
