[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a bad precedent.  Letting a president decide which universities to fund based on ideology could end up going a completely different way under a different administration. This is not what funding decisions should be based on. [/quote]

This.... it's taking education to a dark place.[/quote]

It's not ideology here, it's behavior.  The administration is saying protests which cross into intimidation and hate speech are not going to be tolerated.  If colleges permit it, whether from inattentiveness or through a mistaken belief that free speech considerations require it, or if due to institutional sympathy for the message being propagated, the federal government will not provide financial support to the platform the colleges are providing.

Universities are not free-for-all, anything-goes zones.  They exist for a purpose, and that purpose is not to be a forum for the promotion of political positions through violence and intimidation towards anyone.

These actions reek of DEI, ironically.

The endless drama from those with personal investment in that part of the world is long past tiresome at this point.

Either emigrate there or STFU about the U.S. having any obligation to participate in this dysfunction.[/quote]

Why don’t you repay the US for all the aid you Israeli have taken from us? [/quote]

DP. Why should Israel need to repay anything?  The US chose to provide foreign aid to the only representative democracy in the Middle East. It felt supporting Israel was in the US best interest. Feel free to tell your representative that you don't agree. However, election have consequences. [/quote]

I guess you’re not following current events? Trump has demanded NATO and the Ukraine pay the US back. We cannot keep giving Israel, a double standard for everything. Israel must repay the US in full.

Oh in no way is Israel a democracy and supporting Israel is not in any way in the US interest. Pay up.[/quote]

Trump is also asking Israel to pay with his proposal to develop Gaza. I don’t think it’s actually going anywhere because it’s not a realistic idea but don’t think he’s not trying to recoup $. [/quote]
