      Your comment doesnt make sense to me. NOT accepting it means I ignore the reasons why and how it happened. I can do nothing to change it, or bring back family that died there. But we can stop another one, because WE HAVE LEARNED FROM THE PAST. Arabs and white supremacists refuse to.

    AMP (American Muslims for Palestine)board member Saleh Sarsour, was imprisoned for eight months in Israel for using his Milwaukee furniture store to transfer money to Adel Awadallah, the leader of Hamas’s “military wing.” The AMP is one of the main benefactors of the Students for Justice in Palestine organization which organize pro-palestine protest on dozens of American college campuses.😊

      A protest is by definition an objection and statement to express disapproval.
      You can’t disapprove the events of Oct 7 without disapproving the horror Palestinians are subjected to on a daily basis. If you believe that torture murder and kidnappings is wrong then it is WRONG. And it being wrong doesn’t apply to when it just happens to Israelis it is also wrong when it happens to Palestinians and unfortunately Palestinians have been subject to this for years. So enough hypocrisy

I am in solidarity with students who stand up and speak out for peace, justice and human rights. Latest academism and education are focusing on issues of human rights and post-colonialism, so the students who speak out do nothing wrong and should be proud of yourself.

      IOW, it is meaningless to consider the so-called Palestinian people as some kind of indigenous ethnic group, when the truth is that they really came from various parts of the Arabic world and invaded that region.
      And to make matters even worse, the so-called Palestinians can't even properly pronounce their own name!
