    As a casual observer that has so little knowledge I am loathed to get involved with my uninformed opinion but with people throwing mice and breaking windows I'm guessing this is just the start of a new phase of unrest that won't go away for a very long time. I don't get people coming to another country and attacking the infrastructure/people in that country but... at what point does this become terrorism or an act of war? Is it way off and just a bit of civil un-reset but isn't there a threshold that can easily be passed? What happens when someone blows something up/burns it down? What happens when innocent people get hurt?

    Throwing mice is petty but can cause great distress where is the line between civil un-rest and a level of terrorism? A brief definition is 'Terrorism, in its broadest sense, is the use of intentional violence and fear to achieve political or ideological aims.' Wouldn't attacking buildings, although low level stars on the start on the scale and it will grow?

    I'm worried this is the start and is going to do nothing but get worse so IMO go in and go hard to clamp down.




    well Hamas are pretty lawless.

    They were protesting in a railway station earlier wearing full masks and GBNews were asking why weren't they asked to remove their masks.

    Mice dyed with Palestinian colours thrown into a McDonalds.

    Will it split the support Peta members and Palestine supporters? I suspect there are common individuals in both organisation.
    If they agree to stop throwing mice into McDonald's, will the agreement be ratified ?
