Protect Free Speech and our right to criticize Israel without fear of punishment
We call on the government to further protect our rights of free speech and our right to criticize Israel without fear of punishment or being labelled anti-semitic. We have every right to be critical of Israel's appalling treatment of the Palestinians in the Occupied Territories.
Israel calls itself the only true democracy in the middle east. This so-called democracy recently released a 12 year old Palestinian girl from prison, after alleging she was in possession of a knife. Israel also recently made the headlines when an Israeli Soldier shot dead a wounded and unarmed Palestinian who posed no threat.
We have every right to denounce Israel for these crimes, without being labelled anti-semitic. Criticizing Israel is not anti-semitic.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition in its current form as it does not call for a clear action from the UK Government and Parliament. You could start a petition which outlines what specific action you would like the UK Government and Parliament to take to protect free speech.
