    Why must people that speak against genocide be treated like criminals.....but the criminals are protected and supported? I would like to know.

    Students and young people have the right to determine their opinions upholding human morality free from apartheid & oppression, especially genocide, because the future of a peaceful world is theirs.

    I don't know. When Hamas builds 350+ miles of underground tunnels, they are clearly passionate about something, but not the Gazan people. Not when they tell you tunnels were built for the fighters, and they've used them for weapons and hostages, and what money and supplies were used to build them? Hamas fights among civilians, stores weapons among civilians and diverts aid. It's mighty strange that American students care more about Gazans than Hamas does. And even stranger that they expect Israelis to care more about Gazans than Hamas, their leaders do. Watch Whispers in Gaza. There was a ceasefire on Oct 6th. How many ceasefires does Hamas have to break before the rest of the world sees a pattern? Israel is not magic. If it could eliminate Hamas without hurting others, they would, even if the people you trust, tell you otherwise.

    Because young people are easily deceived and manipulated by the group. They don’t have enough information or brains the realize that there is a bigger truth going on here. They simply follow the crowd.

    It’s not about pro-Palestinian.. it’s about pro-human… it’s resonating because most young people seek to care about humanity as a whole… if the situation was reversed … people would be protesting for the other side… I don’t get why it is hard to understand … it’s not rocket science … it’s got Nothing to do with race/religion…(my two cents)

    There are things that matter to them more than money. That quality seems to fade when one's power and wealth increases, unfortunately.

    Simple, because they don't have job to lose after being accused as antisemitic.
