How fucking ignorant can she possibly be? Is she really this much of an idiot?

The court found that the memorial was within its rights to deny her entry, pointing to the woman’s declared aim of “sending a political message against what she saw as the [memorial’s] one-sided support for the policies of the Israeli government”.


They are getting there. The anti-semites are getting there. They want to go so far as to erase Shoah memorials or turn them into Palestinian Memorials. She doesn't need to be there:

“It is unquestionable that this would endanger the sense of security of many Jews, especially at this site,” the court said.

The court said the woman’s right to freedom of expression was outweighed in this case by the memorial’s “interest in upholding the purpose of the institution”.



I'm going to add a point . . . when in Rome - don't get annoyed if you are wearing bootie shorts and a tank top and wish to go into a Cathedral - and they make you put on a paper or plastic 'tent dress'.

If you can dress appropriately to enter Basilica di Santa Maria in Cosmedin (Roman Holiday - the church where Audrey Hepburn puts her hand in the mouth of the truth) - then you can certain dress appropriately entering what is essentially a graveyard.

There is no difference. If you can't respect the place/environment - then you shouldn't be there.
