In The Only Democracy in the Middle East™️, a protester is threatened with arrest because she’s holding a “Stop the Starvation” sign

www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

A police officer barred a left-wing activist from holding a sign reading "Stop the Starvation" during a protest in Haifa, according to demonstrators at the scene.

The activist, Naomi Ben Malach, told Haaretz the officer even threatened to arrest her.

"I was standing with the sign when a police officer came up to me," she said. "He told me I wasn't allowed to hold that sign and that if I kept holding it, he'd arrest me. I asked why, and he said it was because it's incitement."

How sad is the state of the conflict that a person simply holding a “Stop the Starvation” sign is labeled a "left-wing activist?"
