Columbia Students: Protests Are About Palestine, Anti-Semitism Accusations Are a Distraction
One week into the Gaza Solidarity Encampment at Columbia University, students called a press conference on the campus lawn in front of the President’s House to address accusations in the media that the protests are antisemitic. Students say the attacks pure slander meant to distract from the real objectives of their movement: to bring the world’s attention to the genocide in Gaza and to make Columbia divesting from Israel inevitable.

The contribution of descendants of Arabs and Muslims in contrast to Jews, who have a higher positive effect on the GDP of the United States It would be better if those of Arab and Muslim descent who agree with the massacre of Hamas terrorists on 7 Oct '23 do not need to be citizens of the United States, so that they do not have to pay taxes whose taxes are then used to help Israel

@KirkThomas-fu5jr"Today Zionism is undermining American freedom. Zionists and sympathizers in the U.S. government pushed the Iraq war that destroyed Arab cities and the American image too. Zionist sympathizers are today justifying a genocide and denying the famine in Gaza- and getting Biden to sign off. The Zionist lobby has corrupted our elections, canceled free speech on a routine basis, wrecked the American Jewish community, and compromised some of the best minds of my generation (including Jewish writers in whom I have observed the tragic loss). There is only one way to defeat Zionism. It must be indicted and described, as the racist antithesis of everything the American experiment has achieved. Its support must be harried, hectored, and starved. It must be defeated in the United States, in Congress, and at the University of Southern California. We will win, because we must." Philip Weiss

What’s becoming so obvious to people now is that colonialism has never ended just rebranded with different terms. From Natives indigenous people being called “savages” in the old days to now being called “terrorist” by neocolonialists who are neoliberals, neoconservatives, and zionist. 1) Savages is now “terrorist” 2) Civilizing them is now “bringing them democracy” We can all see Israel is a colonial project being supported by former and current colonials such as U.S, UK, and others who also control territories of indigenous natives in Caribbean Islands, Pacific Islands, Hawaii, and many more. The liberation of Palestine will definitely give RISE to many indigenous natives around the world to free themselves from western domination. This is the underline ripple effect that the U.S government and its puppet allies don’t want to happen.

No one with a brain can even watch this without being disgusted..

I wish all of those who spoke along with their friends the very best in their lives. They are risking their possble careers to stand up for people who are oppressed out of love and decency. I am an old Scottish bloke who has no religion (or ndeed a belief in any god) but these are people that make me see religion in a much better light. My beliefs are simple. Folks are good or bad. How one treats others, especially those who are different to oneself shows up whether a person is good or bad. Religion (or lack thereof), gender, sexuality, colour, race etc has no bearing on whether one is good or bad. It is simply how one treats others. I see good in these folks.
