Earlier this week a poster was complaining that a number of posts concerning coverage of the various UK holocaust rememberence events had been removed. A couple of people queried why this had happend, no answer was ever given, no explanation for the removal ever posted to the email list ( I know I checked)
Today a post was made giving a link to another website which also contained the reports and photos and not only was it hidden but the link was editied out so that even if we looked on the hidden section we wouldn't know where to go.

This is just not acceptable. Indymedia should be the one place where coverage of these important events is carried.

To remove the posts, hide comment on the hiding and then be petty enough to edit a link that shows where the pictures can be seen is childish and stupid. I am going to be positive here and presume the individual (s) involved was doing it for some reason linked to the editorial policy (although I cannot think of one) rather than an attempt to hide pictures of Jewish people behaving in a dignified and forgiving way with the full support of many Muslims (as was the case in Manchester and Liverpool).

Indymedia UK walks a very, very thin line somethimes between its condemnation of Israel and outright anti semitism. I suggest these decisions are reviewed and discussed at length because here you have got it very wrong.
