15. Leaving aside the obviously unacceptable anti-Semitism nature

I'm not sure if it's the mean-spiritedness, the pointlessness, or the attacking children as a "protest" against other kids being attacked is most offensively stupid.

Even if you really hate Israel's war in Gaza, throwing plates and food at kids in another place is just not going to result in anything positive changing. It's just expressing hatred.
