Pro-Palestinian activists force Milan Jewish group out of parade marking end of WWII in Italy [View all]
Shitheads everywhere.
Pro-Palestinian activists, some reportedly shouting antisemitic invective, forced Jewish groups out of a procession celebrating Italy’s Liberation Day from Nazism and fascism in Milan over the weekend.
About 100 protesters on Saturday blocked a group commemorating the Jewish Brigade, a unit of 5,000 Jews from British Mandate Palestine who volunteered to fight against the Germans in Italy during World War II.

More: "The mayor of Milan and the National Association Partisans of Italy said the Jewish Brigade had provoked tensions by bringing Israeli flags."
In fact, that was the flag under which the Jewish Brigade fought to liberate Italy in WWII.
