Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has reportedly banned the flying of Palestinian flags in public places, claiming they “encourage terrorism.”
“It is inconceivable that lawbreakers will wave terror flags, incite and encourage terrorism,” Ben-Gvir said on Sunday night in a statement cited by the Jerusalem Post. “I have issued instructions for the removal of the flags, which support terrorism, from the public space and to stop incitement against the state of Israel.”
The West: This is fine.
Also the West: China forcing Apple and Google to remove the flag of Taiwan to from emoji keyboards is an outrage.
