so why aren't you calling on Hamas to surrender and return its hostages?
or to stop shooting rockets at israel on a daily basis?
Protest against Israel’s genocide in Gaza continues to spread after Columbia University arrests (NYU, U Michigan, Yale, The New School, etc)

In order to receive an assurance, they'll have to be willing to give an assurance. That's typically how negotiations work.
It's kinda weird to see people argue from a position that Israel doesn't need to offer assurances of its own to provide safety for its citizens.

He literally forms his political opinions by thinking, "How can I be the worst human being imaginable"
You might not have anything better to do but keep arguing the same point over and over while smoking meth, but I got better things to do with my time.
you continue to beclown yourself, caping for a terrorist organization's right to shoot continuous rockets at a sovereign country. you're a disgrace
says the guy who supports Hamas' ability to continously shoot rockets at israel. you have zero moral high ground; another clown

You guys are trying to go back and forth with crypto fascist trolls. Literal bigots. Racist homophobes. There is nothing to gain by having arguments with people who literally support genocide. They will never engage in good faith. Focus on taking the time to inform the people who may be reading, and stop wasting your time responding to every bad faith straw man they throw out there. Don't make me post the Sartre quote again.
I genuinely don’t know how anyone who is seriously committed to the safety and well-being of Jews can see a single decision made by people in power this week as doing anything but deeply endangering Jewish people at Columbia and beyond
The crisis at Columbia is a direct result of university leadership’s caving to pressure from bad actors- whose goal is to deepen the repression of pro Palestinian activism and speech and to undermine academic freedom and dismantle universities. Period.
After a deeply Orwellian show trial in Congress, calling the NYPD to arrest over a hundred peaceful student protesters, suspending them, locking them out of their dorms, dining, campus, is so deeply cruel. How is anyone made safer by a decision like this?
As the White House, Jake Tapper, ADL, AJC etc release alarmist statements abt Jewish students, they made no mention of the Jews who were made homeless this week by Columbia, left out in the cold literally & figuratively on Shabbat and now on Passover because of their politics
And again none of these people express a drop of care or concern for the safety of Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, Black and brown students arrested by NYPD at Columbia’s request. And harassed, surveilled, doxxed nonstop for the last six months on campus. As people are dying in Gaza.
Wielding undemocratic power in the name of keeping Jews safe will not ensure that ANYONE who has engaged in antisemitic behaviors or speech will change. It will instead reinforce for them and their peers, the idea that Jews have disproportionate power — a core antisemitic belief.
Jewish students are safe from discrimination when all students are safe from discrimination.
When Jewish students are singled out — either for protection or for discrimination — they are made less safe. Period.
It is beyond maddening and heartbreaking to see that people hate Palestinians so much that they’re willing to to anything- incl endanger Jewish people around the world- as they do everything possible to protect Israel’s impunity and killing machine in Gaza.
Let’s talk about safety on university campuses. Let’s talk about how Israel bombed every university in Gaza. Let’s talk about how right now, in Gaza, families are uncovering the remains of their loved ones’ rotting corpses, their massacres a joint project of Israel and America.
This is why American college students are protesting. They are watching these massacres and they refuse to be silent. And now they are rising up even more to protest not just this country’s institutions’ investment in genocide but also the assault on their freedoms here at home.
No one single student is safer when spaces for learning, debate, dialogue, and protest are shut down. No one. Not Jewish students. Not Palestinian students. No one.
The only people who benefit are those who want to see oppression and ignorance grind on. That’s it.

You don't care about Hamas or Israel. You keep deflecting back to that to downplay that Israel has killed over 30,000 Palestenians, nearly half of which were children, since October 7.
and why did they do that? i want to hear you say it out loud. you can't even do that
that number is fake, btw. still too big, but propaganda.

Why did they kill 13,000 kids? Is that seriously the question you're asking me?
yes. what event precipitated their counterattack? i want the war to end; you refuse to articulate why it started, and how it's supposed to end
also, cite a non-Hamas source for these numbers.

Half a year into the war in Gaza, here's a look at the conflict by the numbers
The Israel-Hamas war has stretched on for half a year and has become one of the most destructive, deadly, and intractable conflicts of the 21st century.

AP News is a "Hamas source" apparently.
And weren't you just in the other thread talking about how the sources don't matter when it comes to posting known racists like Chaya Raichik and Clay Travis?
Now you all of a sudden want to question the source when it comes to the genocide of Palestinians, nearly half of whom are children.
yes, i said that when someone posts a fukking video of an event, it doesn't matter who posts itAnd weren't you just in the other thread talking about how the sources don't matter when it comes to posting known racists like Chaya Raichik and Clay Travis?

did you really just try to equate that to reporting casualty figures
israel lied about their deaths, too. jesus christall this caping for Hamas has fried your brain. or you're just a bad faith poster. welcome to the club
Name one instance where I have caped for hamas. I’ll wait.
Meanwhile you have been caping for a terrorist regime for months.
Stop quoting me because I don’t expect a typical cac to show empathy towards non whites in matters of colonialism and genocide. You are no different than cacs who argue George Floyd died of Fentanyl or those who say George Zimmerman was justified in killing Trayvon or those who thought MLK was a troublemaker.
the left's entire position on this is based on juelzing away october 7th. stop playing stupid. not once have you condemned Hamas for hiding among the civilians you pretend to care about
you guys are so obnoxious, that you're out here making alec baldwin seem sympathetic. a near-impossible task in 2024
