A painting of Lord Balfour housed at the University of Cambridge’s Trinity College was slashed by protest group Palestine Action.

The painting of Lord Balfour was made in 1914 by Philip Alexius de László inside Trinity College. The Palestine Action group specifically targeted the Lord Balfour painting, describing his declaration as the beginning of “ethnic cleansing of Palestine by promising the land away—which the British never had the right to do.”

        Sure, but also other repercussions like an old man asking you to maybe genocide a bit less, and we can’t have that.

          All the while that old man will stress that we must support you fully, and that he’ll never stop supporting you.

      Corporate media decides whether the attention is negative or positive.

      For myself, I don’t approve of vandalism but I fully understand their rage
