Your kid shouldn’t be demonstrating in this manner and neither should mine.

You are out of line telling other parents this, especially when these protesting college students are proving to be on the right side of history. Israel is committing a genocide, and these students sniffed it a mile away. Your tribalism is smothering your sense of morality.

No. These protesting students are proving to be ignorant. Israel is defending itself in a war Hamas started. If you took the time to look at the numbers you would learn that real genoicide is happening in other places in the world, but NOT Gaza.

Utter BS.

Nope. Return the hostages and we are done. Very simple.

Done with genocide? Holding hostages is not a excuse for Israelis to be committing genocide. And the consensus among the vast majority of scholars of genocide, people who have spent decades actually studying the topic (including Israeli scholars!!!), is that Israel is committing genocde. No matter how much it pains you to admit it, Israelis are committing genocide against the Palestinian people.

Again, HAMAS may be committing genocide but Israel is not. Hamas does not care about it's people. They care less than Israel who continues to take steps to warn civilians. Hamas started a war it can easily end, but instead puts it's people in danger. FAFO-- return the hostages!

This - it's abundantly clear to anyone who is not an apologist for terrorists.

You can insist on this until you are blue in the face, but Israel is committing genocide. You are not an expert in genocide, whereas the clear majority of PhDs who research genocide have come to conclusion that Israel is committing genocide. No matter how Hamas is behaving, it does not magically erase the genocidal behavior of Israelis. I think you may be intellectually incapable of understanding this, but try to wrap your mind around the possibility that the victims of Israel's genocide are still the victims of genocide even if you despise them.

NP. You think the government that admitted that getting the hostages back was "not a priority" translates to them caring about their people? What are you smoking?

I have no patience for Israeli genocidist terrorists.

Israel warns civilians when it goes after operatives, and Hamas continues to put it's own people in harms way. If you listen to palestinians who are not Hamas, you will learn why it is imperative for the West to defend itself against Jihadism.

Are you trolling, or just hasbara?

Have they done things to stop this at UVA ?

Time for Jeff to lock this thread. My kid is in her second year at UVA and what you are trolling about has not been her experience or witness to.

I haven't seen anything to warrant your concerns and I am on campus. The DOJ investigations have been closed. https://news.virginia.edu/content/justice-department-closes-two-investigations-uva

Why is uva being singled out when every school is antisemetic?

Safest thing would be to send your kids to school in Israel.

I am Jewish. I wish all of the non-Jew know-it-alls would stop worrying about me and worry about your own problems. Yes, there has been some anti-Semitism. But you are not helping. You are just making it worse.

Trump is using this as a way to go over top schools which tend to be very liberal. He doesn't care about Jews or anti-Semitism.

How about being more upset about the people/organizations that discriminate against gays, transgender people, women, etc.?

The recently martyred Charlie Kirk encouraged discrimination against all of these groups. He did not deserve to die for this. But stop with the hypocrisy - he preached hatred. So worry about these groups, not us Jews.
