I don't think you can guess the motive, without knowing the culprits. Given that the memorial is to honour British service personnel who lost their lives fighting in both wars, it could be that the miscreants are protesting against 'our' actions in Palestine during that period, rather than simply attacking the written existence of 'Palestine'.
Even if it IS a protest against British actions in Palestine, it still gets you no closer to identifying the 'side', given that we were fighting the Arab insurgents (to facilitate mass immigration of Jews) around the time of WWI, and fighting the Jewish (Irgun and others) groups who objected to British-imposed immigration limits, by the end of WWII.
that is too clever for whoever did it. i suspect it's an unwashed white pro palestinian supporter objecting to British military involvement - a left loser.
as has been said. not all lefties are losers - but i suspect this one is
I did not say 'certainly right'. I said 'almost'.
I also do not believe all lefties are losers but it doesn't take much nous to realise that in this case 'lefty losers' are the most likely culprits as the left has traditionally objected to the Jewish state.
Yeh because chipping out the word Palestine is a really obvious form of protest against the state of Israel isn't it...

Where do the Police start to investigate? No witnesses no other clues..
Unless they get a tip off I don’t know
