Couple that with the media arm of this enterprise making up casualty numbers, manufacturing a fake famine that never happened, never reporting on the number of Hamas combatants killed (IDF says 20k) or IDF soldiers killed (600+) not mentioning 20 years of rockets into Israel from Gaza 80K+. Our people will not perish because of your confusion. Hamas will no longer run Gaza. Protest all you want. Nothing will change that.

Conservative kids, of which I’m not a conservative, view colleges as left wing schools, and rightfully so in my opinion.

I remember well when I came home one day from school, wearing a P-scarf. My father was furious and my mother tried to explain to me that, even when my motives were right, I was not seeing the big picture. 30 yrs later, having watched the conflict every 3 yrs reappear, having had 100ds of debates.... my allegance has changed. Back then the Hamas were not "founded", but the PLO was. And what the leaders have done to their citizens is simple, they kept them in poverty and did nothing to improve their lives. And they had multiple offers since the 90s from nations not consideredd "imperialist". Against any peace improvements, against reason and most of all against empowerment. They turned hope into hate. Hate into extremism and extremism into online propaganda for all fresh young minds, trying to find a cause. If the Palestinians wanted a democracy, they could have done it easily. When Arafat got the nobel peace prize......next logical step could have been what the israelis already had.... but they refused. Why are students fighting for something the palestinians refuse to establish? It's not logical, nor common sense.

I think if you ask the average pro-Palestinian protester in the US what "river to the sea" means ... and compare that to the average Palestinian's response - you'll get two VERY different meanings. Most Palestinians will say that Israelis should "just go back to Europe" - yet , the majority of Israeli Jewish families can still trace their lineage to the areas surrounding Israel/Palestine during the 1943+ expulsions of the Jews from Jordan, Egypt, Iran, Ethiopia, Lebanon, Syria, etc. They look indistinguishable from Arab Palestinians. It seems that the US protest movement hasn't even bothered to read Wikipedia before hitting the streets in force but are happy to have a new cause now that BLM has been knocked down a few notches in their credibility (especially after promoting the "we don't need allies, we need accomplices" mantra. Bottom line - think twice before supporting organizations that merely tolerate your support, but have a very different agenda than you may think (not all people think like you - even if they're "friendly" today). Unfortunately the October 7th attack served to create the precise over-reaction that's happening today - by design Hamas knew tens of thousands of Palestinian lives would be extinguished - but just didn't care. I can't get behind either side in this conflict - but I don't want innocents to die (albeit very brainwashed innocents). Think about this - if you don't support a two-state solution (or you do), you may be planting the seeds of civil war within Gaza that will lead to many more innocents dyeing than we've already seen. Netanyahu is bad, but Hamas induced Sharia law across the region is worse. Both need to go.

This is happening by design: universities don't care or want students to be outspoken or critical thinkers, but rather obedient and silent customers indebted for life.

The important point to consider is that these students are future leaders and politicians. The older generation of politicians in the White House and the Senate should be cautious as this may lead to their production. American politics is evolving and the media should be prepared to accommodate these students and their right to express their opinions freely.

mid-1980s, Zakaria opposed anti-apartheid divestment and argued that Yale should not divest from its holdings in South Africa.

AND it is a huge generational gap. People over 45 today don't understand the youngsters at all. Plus they refuse to discuss with the youngsters. Instead they hope to impose their way by authority... which is a wrong way to go.

The problem with this video is context, or rather decontextualization. It's fine to talk about universities as communities, but not in a period when there is an active event going on that is the centre of all commentary on the topic. Nothing that is going on now is about how well campuses operate as communities, nor did Fareed give anything resembling empirical evidence in support of his argument, and it would be difficult to do so for many, many reasons. Rather it comes across as using the protests as a reason, entirely tangentially to talk about something unrelated to them. If anything, inherently, protests are communal activities. Of course they involve disagreement and division, but they also involve working together, meeting, discussing, and engaging. They are fundamentally community-oriented activities aimed at using the power of collective action to reshape the broader community. And to be very clear, I don't think the sharpness of the divide over this topic has anything to do with students. It has everything to do with a United States that has always had a very sharply defined and one-sided media narrative concerning the Levant, one that other western nations have largely not engaged in, and one which cannot survive contact with reality. Students are more plastic, they are able to change their views and their understanding of the world, and so the transformation of their perspective has been explosive compared to older Americans. But that is, frankly, the fault of those older generations failing to ever adapt to the realities rather than the narratives historically. This was always going to happen someday, it was only a question of circumstance. The presence of social media, the wide distribution of camera phones, the continued escalation of dehumanisation, the creation of a dominant political coalition within Israel that overtly and publicly favoured ethnic cleansing, and then, an outrageous terrorist attack, but also a justification to act on those existing tendencies. A lot of people saw all of this as inevitable, including many Israelis. And when it happened, as it has happened, young Americans were always going to be the first to change their perspective, and to begin to educate themselves on the history, one the things they were never taught, and never had any reason to research. On the things Fareed has of course lived through as a journalist, and certainly the things Joe Biden has lived through, given that Biden is older than the state of Israel.

I guess everyone thought this video was going to be all about the protests since they're in the news this week, but I think Zakaria just wanted to talk about a different aspect of it and I appreciated how he describes changer over the years. 30 years ago, I myself remember endless conversations in college on issues of the day until the wee hours--I wonder if that still happens as much or in the same way. I expect it does not.

Editing on what a wise man once said... It is difficult to get Fareed to understand something, when his salary depends on him not understanding it.

you hit the nail on the head

The arguement for all these acts of loneliness and less community is as follows: CEO pay is 500-1, wages have been stagnated for over 40years, actual union participation is at 7%, productivity has increase while wages haven’t gone up, technology and automatization, and the outsourcing of American jobs have all been promoted by our Capitalistic model.

In the 80s, I remember students chanting: "US out of El Salvador." And now the Salvadorans have left as well and come to the US. I guess the protests were pretty powerful.

Cuz they hate Genocide??

I agree. I would also add that the present "social media" has made people vulnerable to extremism and ease the creation of social silos. It makes people lazy in their personal analysis of the situation. It trivializes arguments and allows people to take positions without background or context. It also doesn't help that there is disingenuous use of free speech, just to goad people. I have zero interest in many speakers at places like universities and colleges. But to intentionally invite people on the outrage factor to generate publicity is in itself trivializes debate. And it even happens in the commentary.

Truth. Got a bachelor's in the 1990's. Best time of my life. Racked up $12K in debt, paid it all back. Got a master's in 2019-2023. Prior to covid, campus community was just ok. Covid wrecked everything. Now I have $120K in debt and barely any friends from campus. And was mentally exhausted by the program.

"To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize."

the turmoil is the recognition of an injustice I am so proud of these students

We made car centric hellscapes. You can only get places by cars and that means the barrier to do things is quite high. I am currently living in Germany and social life seems to have recovered here and in other European countries quite quickly. People have gone back to walking to the pub, they have gone back to having a sandwich at a bakery and meeting friends. The last few times I have visited friends and family in the USA I have had to ask people to put away their phones while out having dinner together. Even though I see some of these people only once per year and we went out to dinner together they just can't manage to stop doing stuff on their cell phone. This is not something I have run into in Europe.

Colleges have intertwined themselves with the military industrial complex. That's what changed. That's what we're protesting.

The social aspect is the absolute least of the problems with higher learning. The universities are failing as academic institutions. In an environment where unemployment is at historical lows, graduates are finding fewer and fewer job opportunities upon graduation because they aren’t qualified to do anything an employer is willing to pay for. Further, you can’t even trust their research anymore. The plagiarism and fraudulent data is at crisis levels. Colleges need to first get a grip on their core competencies.
