When my son was in Pitt college after 9/11 during class discussion he said he felt like he was in another country by how the students were reacting and speaking.

THEY want divestment from Israel.

The divestment that will happen in current AMERICAN donors will shut their pocketbooks towards the universities.

“We’re just here in solidarity with Palestinians at a time where they don’t have universities, to use our university privilege to make something,”

No you aren’t. You are not making something you are demanding an act against the sovereign country of Israel, not asking for Israel to change their stance on Gaza but by threatening them with:

“the students are demanding that Pitt disclose and divest from any investment ties it has to the Israeli government”

That is not building something, that’s threatening someone with a physical act trying to do harm to another country by holding something hostage. In this case, monitary business funds. You act just like the people of Gaza who are considered terrorists. Only difference is they hold hostages for the same thing.
