For me, it's more like:

I'd join protests for peace and a two-state solution, and even in punishing the current Israeli government, but I won't join calls for the elimination of Israel or cheer on Hamas.

Because those things would be as horrible (or more horrible) than what Israel is doing.

So your extremism has lost me and the many, many people like me.

Israel has done everything it could to render a two-state solution an impossibility. First, they did it by attaching restrictions to the operation of a Palestinian state that would have rendered it an independent state in name only, and then they rendered it impossible by tolerating and supporting settlers.

Now the world has awakened and the chickens have come home to roost. Israel as an exercise in apartheid will soon cease to exist. The Israeli Jews can be part of one state with rights for all or they can emigrate.

I'd say you missed the point entirely.

Then you're not reading carefully.

Blood libel poster against Chemerinsky. Blood libel poster at Harvard.

Obvious and overt antisemitism. Not even arguably about Israel--only about Jews.

The boy who cried wolf.

Care to address/defend the posters?

That said - I was watching some of the videos this morning, and was struck by just how annoying these protesters are. It reminded me of the Occupy encampments (which weren't as anti-semitic, from what I recall) - but in look, feel, tone, behavior. I remember those irritating call and repeat chants, the high pitched whiny voices of those leading them, the whole thing.

When did young people get so annoying? Was it always so?

There is no antisemitism just support for Palestinians which make some Jewish student “feel uncomfortable”. Only those who think Palestinians must be ethnically cleansed from the world for Israel to exist would equate support for Palestinians, calling for a cease-fire or demanding an end to a holocaust antisemitic.

Now lying about what is actually happening and crack down on people not supporting a foreign country will actually create a real backlash.

These kids seem perfectly comfortable advocating for a genocide of all Jews.

Lies. These protestors have never called for the genocide of Jews. Utter BS.

Maybe Columbia and other universities need to require all current and future students sign a support and loyalty pledge to Israel? This could be extended to former students by refusing to release transcripts?

Great idea!

Telling young voters that there’s not enough money for free college or free healthcare, and then sending billions of dollars to Israel so they can kill more people in their asymmetric war will elicit rage.

Most likely effect of the protests:

Trump is elected (see Nixon '68 after the Chicago Dem convention protests/riots).

Good work, kids.

If you actually follow the facts you would understand that 99% of the Columbia student protesters are not advocating for a genocide of all Jews.
They are focusing on divestment. But why bother with facts when they are inconvenient to the narrative you are determined to stick with

You can say that all day long. When you support Hamas, which they do, you support the killing of Jews. Stop sugarcoating the truth.

So require a loyalty pledge to Israel or how about requiring all students convert to ultra orthodox?

Good work, kids.

It is what the resident troll wants, obviously. Note the casual out of the blue mention of Pravda just a bit above. Agents of chaos, online and on campuses, are supporting and financing this shit to create more support for Trump from people appalled by the mounting leftist extreme movement. That is the real danger of these protests and rhetoric, and people should not let themselves be fooled. These mixed up kids are just tools Russia/Hamas/The Islamic Republic of Iran and China are using to install Trump and destabilize the west further.

I wouldn't, and I would tell my protesting student to stop or tuition won't be paid by us.

This is why the trend of parents paying for college these days is ridiculous. An 18yo should not be leashed in by their parents every time mommy or daddy don’t like their thoughts or actions. No wonder kids are so anxious.

One of the kid protesters is a big exec daddy's girl who killed two people and paid a $200 fine for it. Another one lives in a 3 mil mansion in Georgia, another one has mommy in Congress and is now crying homeless and starving. They are just a bunch of idiots and really are giving Columbia a bad name,

Mommy and daddy bailed them out, I guess. These kids need to be on their own. I’d bet they don’t feel exactly the same
Way without a bankroll. This applies to students on both sides.
