    So use the actual Palestinian Flag. No one was stopping them.
    Instead they throw in a watermelon on a threat to a black Rep to congress.

    But if you want to be our pro-terrorist Hamas supporter in this tiny group....the position is open.

    Because their audience knew what they meant.

    You may continue as the anti-free speech spokesman.
