  • The Peaceful Pro Palestinian protest Lie Exposed.

    To all like Starlight believe that what was happening in London and around America on University campuses are just peaceful pro Palestinian protests think on this the officer in London told the Jewish man that to guarantee his safety they had to take him around the protesters, and here in America Columbia University official have told Jewish professors and students to leave campus and go remote for their learning since Columbia University could not guarantee their safety if they remained on campus etc. If the American universities nor the police the london protest incident admit Jews are not safe on campus or the steets where said protest are happening, how can it be any thing but violent Antisemitic "Protests."

    I would venture and guess at least 70% of these young protesters couldn't even find Gaza on a map. Most of these leftists are just mindless social media drones chasing after the latest trends. First it was police shootings, then it was Ukraine, now the new political leftist cause is Palestine. It's all about raging for the sake of raging, feeling like they're part of something politically important.

        Though it's probably fake, as satire, it's still pretty funny...

        NYU 'Pro-Palestine' Demonstrators Have No Idea What They're Protesting

          Copying my post from another thread, given its relevance here:


          Jewish students and professors speak out against claims Columbia protests are antisemitic

          Mr Ben-Menachem is one of many Jewish students who joined the protests at Columbia and other universities across the US calling for their institutions to cut ties with companies linked to Israel over the war in Gaza.
          He said he has watched with amazement as the media and political figures have attempted to characterise the protests as antisemitic and dangerous, despite Jewish student organisations playing a central role in them.

          “It’s absurd to say that they are gonna bring in the National Guard and the NYPD to protect Jews when it’s actually Jews who are being arrested,” he added.

          Sarah, a Jewish student at Columbia who asked for only her first name to be published, was among those arrested for taking part in the encampment. She was held by the NYPD for eight hours, with her hands in zip ties, after they moved in on the camp on Thursday. She was suspended the next day, but snuck back onto campus a few days later to take part in a Passover Seder celebration with fellow protesters.

          “It was definitely one of the more joyful experiences I’ve had at Columbia,” she told The Independent. “So many of us got arrested or suspended, it was really nice to see so many Jewish faces at the Seder.”

          Sarah said she too had been appalled by attempts to smear the Columbia protests as antisemitic, saying that the term had been “weaponized in a really deceitful way by political opportunists who insist on conflating anti-Zionism and antisemitism.”

          “There’s never any substantive response to people like me who are anti-Zionist Jews,” Sarah noted. “There’s a long tradition of Jewish anti-Zionism. I have so much love for the Jewish people of my community, we just have a political dispute, and that’s it.”...

          “It’s not the students who have created the chaos,” said Professor Milanich. “It’s the leadership of the university that has participated in this ridiculous police raid and has thrown the faculty and students of the university under the bus."

          “Are Jews on campus, or anyone else, safer because hundreds of police in riot gear with firearms were invited to come onto campus and haul our students off in zip ties? I don’t feel safer,” she said.

            I recall something William F Buckley said that I can only paraphrase now (can't find the exact quote) about college campuses being the refuge of the "partially educated".

              So is it good then that we have uneducated people here (at the higher education / tertiary education level) who are fully ready to tell those partially-educated Jewish students that their protesting is anti-Semitic, and that police arresting those Jewish students for their protests is pro-Semitism?

              I'm curious, does a post-grad student count as "partially-educated"? If they'd left uni after their undergrad degree, would they have been "fully-educated", but since they returned for a subsequent qualification does that make them only "partially-educated"? Can "fully educated" posters here who have only an undergraduate degree look down on those "partially-educated" students who are several years into their PhD programs? Do opinions count more from someone who's spent more years in higher education?

                  Here is one response to those protesting about Israel's actions in Gaza.

                  Clearly several here would consider him and those like him as anti-Semites and Jew haters.

                  To read in the Bible
                  It ain't necessarily so
                  ."

                    That only applies to those who, like you, are completely one sided.

                      Mr Kapos is supporting the protests across the world including in the USA.

                      As he notes "The way the Israeli government is using the memory of the Holocaust to justify what they're doing to the Gazans is a complete insult to the memory of the Holocaust".

                      He also commented, "And we also demonstrate against the conflating of Jewishness with Zionism, which is what the Israeli state is trying to do which does nothing else but increases anti-Semitism. So we are trying to counter that by demonstrating that Jews and Holocaust survivors are against that."

                        So? He could be a self hating Jew. Or just old and confused.

                        As he notes "The way the Israeli government is using the memory of the Holocaust to justify what they're doing to the Gazans is a complete insult to the memory of the Holocaust".
                        I could care less. Was he there when Hamas attacked? No, I suspect that he lives in a Western country where he is safe. And how many Holocaust survivors would be supporting the state of Israel?

                        He also commented, "And we also demonstrate against the conflating of Jewishness with Zionism, which is what the Israeli state is trying to do which does nothing else but increases anti-Semitism.

                        Correct, he is a useful idiot doing the bidding of Jew haters like Hamas.

                          Your moral turpitude is, once again, duly noted.

                          As for where he lives. You evidently did not watch the video. I do not think the US has red public phone booths.

                            What if we used the left's "counter-protest" strategy they used for "free speech rally's" at the beginning of Trump's term?

                              I did edit my post. The point is he lives safely in a western country.
