Terry Watkins @gerrygow.bsky.social · 8hCompletely accurate. Except there are many mosques - the majority almost certainly - where political Islamism does not exist. Only among the Haredim will you find a meaningful number of synagogues where Zionism plays no role. 220

Terry Watkins @gerrygow.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Not enough police to arrest them. Not enough prison cells to put them in even if they were arrested.

You've got a non-state actor using violence to further political objectives. It's flagrantly in breach of democratic principles several times over.
