Members of a pro-Palestinian student society held a vigil outside the University of Leeds students union for Palestinian “victims of the recent wave of violence”. The list included some of those who were suspected of carrying out terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians.
Around 20 students from the Palestinian Solidarity Group gathered outside the union and held up a banner titled “Names of Palestinians murdered since the start of October 2015”. Jewish students noticed that of the 51 listed, several were the names of terrorists involved in attacks on Israelis.
According to reports one of those named, Bahaa Alian, was involved in a gun and knife attack on a bus. Another, Alaa Abu Jamal, was involved in a car ramming and knife attack.
