First #RedTriangles at #ProPalestineProtests were the #RedTriangle lapel pins of Spanish #Communists and other #leftists in #Madrid on #9October2023

#Qassam didn't use them till after the ground invasion of #Gaza on #27October2023

They're very subtle unless you look carefully, so possibly a coincidence, but it's a close coincidence that it's used by the Europeans who were out on the streets already by 9 October 2023?

They're also on the flyers.

I'm increasingly convinced that Qassam – military wing of Hamas - got the #RedTriangle from Europe

The meaning in Europe is opposing the occupying fascist military and Hamas have been calling Israel the Nazis since 1988

Glad things aren't getting too extreme. 😬

"A property belonging to the #antisemitismcommissioner for the #German state of #Brandenburg was targeted in a suspected #arson attack on Sunday.

#AndreasBüttner, the state’s commissioner of combatting #antisemitism, wrote in a post on X that his family was home at the time of the attack, which targeted a shed on his property in #Templin, a small town in Brandenburg. He said that no one was injured during the attack.

“This attack represents a massive escalation,” wrote Büttner. “It is directed against me personally, against my family, and against my home. At the same time, it is an expression of hatred and intimidation. I will not be intimidated by this.”

An inverted #redtriangle, a symbol #Hamas uses to mark its targets in #propaganda videos, was also spray-painted on the front door of a house adjacent to the shed."
