A liveblog from the Irish News covering protests which broke out involving controversy over flying a Palestinian flag

[HailTheOrder33]

Quick rundown: the flag was supposed to fly Saturday, and didn’t due to a legal challenge by unionists, covering for Jews. The challenge was upheld, some other logistical stuff happened and it was agreed yesterday that the flag would fly today. It was taken down about an hour ago.

Three have been arrested so far.

This doesn’t mean we should be on the side of the Palestinians though. Both Jews and Arabs are descended from the same mamzer seedline.

True, the Irish have an affinity for them because of the years of British subjugation of that parcel of land.
