Trump’s Scottish golf course vandalized with pro-Palestinian graffiti
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleLONDON — US President Donald Trump’s Turnberry golf resort in Scotland has been daubed with pro-Palestinian graffiti, with a protest group claiming responsibility.
Local media shows images of red paint scrawled across walls at the course with the slogans “Free Gaza” and “Free Palestine” as well as insults against Trump.
“Gaza is not for sale” is also painted on one of the greens and holes dug up on the course.
Palestine Action says it caused the damage, posting on the social media platform X: “Whilst Trump attempts to treat Gaza as his property, he should know his own property is within reach.”
Last month, Trump enraged the Arab world by declaring unexpectedly that the United States would take over Gaza, resettle its over 2-million Palestinian population, and develop it into the “Riviera of the Middle East.”
Police Scotland says it is investigating.
The most expensive golf course in Britain, Trump's Turnberry golf resort, got a visit by Palestine Action.
No longer can ordinary people sit by whilst the American adminstration arms Israel and makes plans to ethnically cleanse Gaza.
