That's an interesting claim.

Are there any other middle Eastern countries where an invading army builds roads that the invaders are allowed to walk or drive down, and the indigenous residents aren't?

Are there any where water is rationed so that members of one ethnic group have lawns and swimming pools, and another ethnic group aren't even permitted to collect rainwater?

It wasn't the US corporates that threatened Ireland, it was Ireland's own business group that was concerned about the wider implications from USA government.
The Irish Business and Employers Confederation, the biggest industry lobby group, whose members include pharmaceutical, software and banking companies, has publicly shared its concerns about Ireland's stance, saying the U.S. could penalise multinational companies in Ireland for boycotting Israel.

Basic Law: Israel as the Nation-State of the Jewish People - Wikipedia

I wonder if he'd be so nonchalant if UK enacted a law that declares Cornish people as second class citizens who could legally be discriminated against.

It's the kind of thing that underlies the whole raison d'etre for the creation of Israel. :rolleyes:
Jews wanted a state where they did not suffer discrimination. Then they enact a law to legalise discrimination against non-Jews.
You couldn't make it up. :rolleyes:

City of London Police said a 22-year-old woman has been arrested for displaying a placard in support of proscribed organisation, Palestine Action, contrary to Section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000.
 
It's a good move by her.
She's internationally known and this will draw lots of attention.
It's not a good look for a socialist political party to be locking up the green goddess, perhaps now the world will see that we are living under the jackboot, and that Starmer and co are just unhinged fascist bureaucrats.
