British woman who removed an Israeli hostage poster from a memorial site is convicted of theft

JL;DR SUMMARY In Brighton, England, Fiona Monro, a woman linked to anti-Zionist activism, was convicted of theft for removing a poster of an Israeli hostage, Tzachi Idan, from a memorial site. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
