The saddest thing about the politics in America, is that they use any issue to their political gain and personal interest.

The sham is telling people that a book or a religion from 700 AD is still credible today. Charles Darwin in 1859 destroyed the "Seven Days of Creation" with a theory about humans have common ancestors with other primates. No book written more than a century ago is used as a textbook in schools. We need to dump the ancient religions, but instead, we give churches exemption from property taxes.

Look up the recent history of Kerem Shalom and Rafah Gates and the food aid Israel had there waiting for the Palestinians to get them. Hamas blew up Kerem Gate, the food aid, and the guards, Israel rebuilt it, and started collecting more food for Gaza, Hamas blew it up a second time, all in three weeks time. That left the only other delivery gate, Rafah Gate, which Egypt controls and after the second destruction of the K.Shalom Gate, they announced they would be closing the Rafah Gate and not coordinating delivery with Israel. Because Israel is not the bad guy in this story, it has gotten very little exposure. So who is preventing food getting the the Gazans???? The Palestinians /Arabs have turned down every offer to create a two state solution since 1948, 5-6 of them, including one in which the Israelis suggested instead of a 50-50 split, they would agree to an 80-20 split giving Arabs the larger portion in exchange for peace. The answer was no, because it meant co-existence and recognizing Israel. The most recent was why Cory Booker was in Israel when Hamas attacked on Oct. 7th, breaking a ceasefire. It was a deal between the Israelis and Saudis for a two state solution for the Palestinians, and was making progress. That's why Hamas attacked. If there was a solution no more need for UNRWA to exist, no more huge aid packages for Hamas to steal. Couldn't have that.....And because of the savage nature of the attack, I think it'll be hard to have a two state deal now. Would you want to live next to people who in their original charter, article 7, call for your ending, and then acted it out in part, and have sworn to do it again? Would you sleep soundly?
Classic misdirection and framing the narrative

That's right. There were videos to prove it. They were wearing masks, clubbing students, and setting off huge fireworks. Some of them were identified, and were outsiders, but none of them were arrested. Jerry Seinfeld's wife gave them $10,000, and raised a total of $100.000.

I think I might beable to. Because not being pro-Palenstine or not being pro-Israel. Because you don't know enough about the subject and are just indifferent because it has nothing to do with you. While being pro life and anti war in general. Just because I'm not pro BLM doesn't mean I hate black people.... its pretty simple. But as in everything. If you look for hate. You will find it. Because as you said it's a opinion. And your opinion is not fact.

"... From the River to the Sea ..." was first coined/used by Israel, and-interestingly-the peoples considered to be Semetic (broadly), are those tied to ethnic groups identifiable as either: Arab, Akkadian, Phonecian or Jewish folks. Zionism does not equate with diaspora or global Judaisim, supporting a ceasefire and divestment movement is not supporting Hamas, they are tactics protesters used for Vietnam and South Africa.

At this point nobody is going to want to be president of a university. There's a better way to do this and that's to go to the root of the issue. Talk to some of the protestors about why they feel the way they do. Trying to humiliate leaders at some our most prestigious schools just embarrasses us all for the world to see.

The largest investment from uc schools is in Israel. 12 billion. They also invest in weapons used to slaughter, and they invest in the illegal settlements. So, since Qatar is an ally as well, maybe see how much UC is invested in Qatar…likely little to none. As far as donors who control universities, it’s pretty much Zionists once again, as we have seen with the power they are wielding over the universities. This is a sham. It was Jewish students leading the Gaza encampment.

You want to know why because when you hold a protest like the protest that have been going on in these colleges that are not peaceful, that are discriminating and violent verbiage It is no longer a protest. The constitution clearly states a protest must be peaceful, so therefore there is no right to continue after They are no longer peaceful. Someone needs to be living under a rock if they think that any of these protests have been peaceful they’ve been disgusting and unconscionable behavior towards Jewish students.

It’s not anti war and there is no g side! 1. As long as Hamas is in power, there will be more wars to come. This is not the first one. 2. Calling for intifada, is calling for a violent uprising against Jewish people all over the world, but it never ends with the Jews, the goal is a worldwide Islamic state. 3. If you are visibly Jewish, you are harassed. 4. Not a g-side: Creating safe zones for civilians to go. The war will end the SECOND that Hamas surrenders and hostages are returned! If they wanted a g side, there wouldn’t be conditions to end the war! Many cease fire deals have been turned down by Hamas! In WW2 Jews were not given an option to survive. Hamas and civilians attacked Israel, Israel did not start this war. Hamas’ charter is a gen0c1dal one, not Israel! Hamas came into Israel ki11ing every life form they found, including animals and babies. They committed a g side on Oct 7th. Not Israel trying to defeat Hamas

Why has the GOP become anti Christian.
University presidents being summoned to testify at congressional hearings and subsequently subjected to harsh treatment is not only degrading to the dignity of these esteemed individuals but also to the United States as a whole. This type of bullying by professional politicians towards university leaders demonstrates a disturbing level of insolence and ignorance within the political class of our country. It undermines the respect and autonomy that educational institutions should be afforded and highlights a worrying trend of political interference in academia. This behavior, characterized by a lack of decorum and a failure to engage in constructive dialogue, reflects poorly on the values and intellectual standards we expect from our leaders. The spectacle of university presidents being chastised in such a public and humiliating manner serves no constructive purpose and only serves to erode the respect for both our educational institutions and the political process.
