The UK populace has immense opposition to Westminster's handling of the events because of a great lack of transparency. If they were told the truth (that the country has to do what the White House says or else the new blackshirts do to Downing Street as they've recently rehearsed in Southampton, Belfast, Rotherham and Hull, plus the UK police and troop numbers are too small to affect the outcome) they could start to think more realistically about the situation.

Sometimes it feels like the West is going backwards. Censoring voices and publications due to expression of freedom? Back to Victorian era soon I guess.

The gap in my understanding is, why this particular group? There are endless groups and movements in favour of the Palestinian cause that haven't been marked by the UK's overbearing security state, so why not just lend her support to one of those instead?
