Lauren Booth rowing back swiftly but not competently


Lauren Booth at an anti-Israel demonstration at the weekend. She described Mark Regev as "an Israeli killer-Zionist" and a "liar on the grand scale of liars". Hear the bile as she describes the "Israeli military" as "a murderous military that kills civilians". Calling the deaths "executions" and claiming that people were "shot in the back of the head as they lay down"; can she substantiate this?

An interesting phrase was this: "You wanna know something? I don’t care about Israel’s security." Now she followed that with "because if you kill civilians you don't deserve your security, Israel". Does Lauren Booth feel the same way about Hamas and Hezbollah killing Israeli civilians?

But the key passage was this: "The world should take action and up arms against Israel, right now, in revenge for this attack....By arms… by arms, let’s get it straight… we will march…our arms…are marching..." Convincing backtrack?
