At a pro-Palestine protest, Times journalist Matthew Syed asks a simple question about Hamas ? and is met with abuse, denial and antisemitism. What he found in Trafalgar Square wasn't protest but a mob drunk on hate.

Civil Rights Pioneer Rosa Parks Dies at 92
- By BREE FOWLER, Associated Press Writer
Monday, October 24, 2005
(10-24) 20:50 PDT DETROIT (AP) --
Rosa Parks, whose refusal to give up her bus seat to a white man sparked
the modern civil rights movement, died Monday evening. She was 92.
Mrs. Parks died at her home during the evening of natural causes, with
close friends by her side, said Gregory Reed, an attorney who
represented her for the past 15 years.
Mrs. Parks was 42 when she committed an act of defiance in 1955 that was
to change the course of American history and earn her the title "mother
of the civil rights movement."
[...]
Speaking in 1992, Mrs. Parks said history too often maintains "that my
feet were hurting and I didn't know why I refused to stand up when they
told me. But the real reason of my not standing up was I felt that I had
a right to be treated as any other passenger. We had endured that kind
of treatment for too long."

Rosa Parks confronted raw evil power: the racist power of the U.S.A. The Rossport Five have done a similar yoke: defying the combined power of government-and-industry. She was there in spirit on the Long March to Derry, and rest assured she and Michael Davitt are singing " We Shall Overcome" with the Rossport guys. So long, Rosa. Thanks much.
The USA is not rasist, it stands as a becon of freedom through out the world. Your just a pinko commie- a yellow-bellied liberal, peacenick, stuck-up, white, liberal, latte-drinking, brieir-eating, french-loving pinko communist, thats what you are.
