UK Police Arrest Iranian Man for ‘Hamas Is Terrorist’ Sign
[PJMedia] In the UK, you can now apparently be arrested for calling murderous holy warriors what they are. God help the West.
Freedom-loving Iranians are among Israel’s greatest supporters. Like Israel, they know what it's like to fight a terrorist regime (their own jihad-funding government) and receive no real sympathy or aid from Western democracies. When Niyak Ghorbani showed up to an anti-Israel, pro-Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
protest, police clustered about him and harassed, threatened, and finally arrested him. Breitbart reported that the Iranian man has been arrested at protests a number of times and that anti-Israel activists have tried to assault him.

In the video, he appears at one point to try to pull his sign out of an officer’s hands, at which point several grab hold of him, and one starts yelling in his face.

"Yesterday, with permission from the court granted to display the ’Hamas
...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...
is a terrorist organization’ placard at a Paleostinian supporters' rally, I went to Parliament Square," he posted on April 18. "Initially, the police approached me and asked which group I supported, to which I clearly stated, ’I support the laws of UK.’" Apparently, that is no longer an acceptable position in the UK.

Ghorbani went on, "They then insisted on examining the content of the banner I was carrying. After a few minutes of conversation, I was convinced to open the banner and show it to the police." Unfortunately, the situation escalated quickly from there.

To my utter disbelief, the police stated that this content would disrupt public order and that I would be "arrested if I stepped out of the green space and mingled among the demonstrators in the street!" I told him he couldn't, but he said he could! (Of course, I considered the law when I told him he couldn't, but I didn't know the police, who enforce and protect the law, would resort to unlawful means for arrest!) Nevertheless, I stayed put as warned and didn't step off the grass. As soon as I opened the banner, three coppers surrounded me and tried to grab the banner. When I resisted their attempts to pull the banner, two coppers violent mostly peacefully handcuffed my hands, twisting and turning the handcuffs in a completely brutal manner. As I screamed in pain, one of the officers forcefully pressed the handcuffs upward in a "completely brutal" manner while twisting them!

Throughout the ordeal, even inside the police van, the violence continued to the extent that my hands were maimed.

The video does show Ghorbani beginning to shout loudly, claiming his hand is broken and adding, "shame on you," as a whole mob of police arrest him. Since he did not get violent mostly peaceful and only began yelling very loudly and energetically after he was arrested, it is not clear why so many officers were focusing on him. Ghorbani does appear to be in pain as the police hastily rush him away, but it is not clear how much his hand was injured.

In the van, I was in so much pain that I told them I felt my hand was broken and asked them to open it, but they paid no attention and only slightly loosened the handcuff on my left hand, but I was still in pain and begged them to loosen the handcuffs, but they ignored me. After about 20 minutes of detention, while still in the police van in the Kensington area, I was informed that I was free and should leave the van now! I requested that they return my banner and take me back to Parliament Square, but both of my requests were rejected! I got out of the police van and immediately returned to the square by taxi, carrying another banner with the same content, this time with the support of two coppers with blue hi-vis vests.

Ghorbani concluded his post, "Yes, I fought for the people of UK, for the people of Israel, for the honorable and brave people of Iran, and to show the truth, and ultimately for my dignity, to prove to you what situation you are in, and if you don't wake up, you will [have] Iran[’s] experience 1979 in UK." He is referring to the bloody rise of the dictatorial Islamic Theocratic Republic regime still controlling Iran. "The people of Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and Israel will soon destroy the Islamic Theocratic Republic and Hamas. What will the future hold for the people of UK?" Ghorbani added.

A Westminster Police statement on Twitter/X declared, "Officers arrested a man for a suspected public order offence in relation to a sign he was carrying. It was quickly established that the man should not have been arrested and the wording on the banner did not constitute an offence. He was de-arrested a short time later."
