Fly over there


WTF? You think the most effective way to protest this is to fly to a war zone and offer yourself up as fodder for more Israeli air strikes.

WTF is wrong with you?

That works both ways, maybe all these pro Israeli supporters need to go join the IDF and serve their true country. Pro Israeli people are also trying to influence policy from their gilded overpriced mansions.

Some actually have. I don’t see anyone on the other side doing it. Why? Because Gaza is an oppressive conservative sh!thole where all of their lefty woke LGBTQ+ values would be met with bad consequences.

I honestly wonder if any of these ignorant protesters have any inkling of what would await them in Gaza. Not that they'll ever have the guts to find out.


Really? It’s surprising to you that they aren’t volunteering to get massacred by the IDF?

Or be persecuted by Hamas for being women, liberal, Christian or LGBTQ!


No, that doesn't happen! Hamas are great guys and they only want what's best for Palestinians! /s

He said that he is poor and will not be able to afford it to go back to school, but he feels, as a child of Palestinian parents living in the US, that he is powerless to make change, that he has survivor's guilt.

This is what he feels he needs to do with the opportunity he has/had living here.


Well well well if it isn't the consequences of our actions rearing their ugly head again.

Just wait for his GoFundMe to appear. Idiot.


You people are soulless ghouls. This is your reaction to a Palestinian young man struggling with what is happening to people there? Palestinian lives mean squat to you? Many of us DO NOT support Hamas but can still see that the treatment of civilians in Gaza is wrong and that the US should not be supporting this. And the blanket dismissal and demonization of all student protestors is wrong, as well.


You are a living, breathing stereotype. My God. How about you pay for this AMERICAN protester to go back to school.

Yes, their constant tantrums ("protesting") are really doing a lot to help Palestinians. So effective.

Do the protesters have a position on Hamas’ slaughter of innocent people at a music/peace festival on October 7?

They do, but I don’t think the Jewish or LGBTQ protestors understand that the people they are defending wouldn’t even have them over for dinner.


My kid absolutely does. But for her, that doesn’t matter. She demands, based on our faith, that all are treated according to our principles. As an example, it is harder to argue against the death penalty if you are faced with a man who has raped and murdered a young mom in front of her traumatized children. But if you do not believe the state has a right to take a citizen’s life as a punishment, then the nature of the crime doesn’t matter. It isn’t easy to live.


Oh, then your kid must have been absolutely horrified by the atrocities committed on Oct. 7! Did she speak out then? No? Why not?

Because she is American and is protesting her government primarily. She actually really liked the president’s responses post 10/7. She thought he did a good job in reaching out to Jewish Americans as well as the Israelis to express support. She has no issues (she has told me) with the US funding Iron Dome. But given the poor (in her opinion) way that Israel is prosecuting this war, with absolute lack of care for civilians, she wants the US to step back and stop funds transfer to the Israel. And especially the sale of any offensive weapons.

I think what Israel lost with my daughter and many of her friends is the benefit of the doubt. I think prior to this war, she more or less thought “the ME is messed up. The poor Israelis who have to deal with all the violence.” Now she doesn’t believe that either side is capable of speaking without a heavy dose of propaganda, and she thinks that Palestinians have been poorly treated.



If she were to look at Israel and Palestinian conflicts of the previous recent years, she would have more nuance. But she wasn't been paying attention then. So for her, it didn't happen. And so she disapproves of Israel.

You could give her a bit of guidance and show her the many times that Palestinians sent rockets into Israel - and she could imagine how that would make her feel and react.


Did those rockets kill 35000 women and children??? Asking, just for nuance and context.


Can you imagine how you would feel and react being subject to frequent bombings for years and years? Would you react vigorously? Or temperately?


You are talking about the Palestinians, right? Who have been terrorized daily since 1948.


The people of that area have been terrorizing each other for centuries.

I love it when MAGAs pretend to care about women and LGBTQ.

They're either for it or they excused it.

Are these kids aware of all the other genocides going on around the world? Do they care?

They don't care because they don't involve Jews. You can only score enough virtue points to unite a fractured society off the ultimate scapegoats.

Yes! They’ve said that it will happen again and again if their demands aren’t met. Really stand up people.

These jacka$$es are ruining the semester for everyone, including those who just want to go to classes and not be harassed. I hope they’re proud of themselves.

What’s even funnier are LWNJs who insist they’re champions for women and LGBTQ people - but who defend disgusting terrorists who would love nothing more than to execute gays and subjugate women. I love that disgusting hypocrisy, don’t you?
