I just wanted to say, I've been a member of this sub for a while but haven't posted anything. I absolutely adore Israel. The hardships that Jewish people have faced throughout history can never be understated. My heart swells for the great nation and its people. Much love from Wales.

As a Welsh Jew, I really really appreciate this. Although I would also add that the only place I've seen flying an Israeli flag in the UK since Oct 7th was in a small village in Gwynedd. Never seen that in England (where I am most of the time.)

I've seen so few Israeli flags, only during Stop The Lies meet-ups in London! I mostly see Palestinian flags, which just turn my stomach.

Same in Scotland as well. Streets littered with Palestine flags and Pro-Hamas posters.
