This is a collection of agitators rounding up Jew haters and supported by a collection of ignorant people brainwashed by a sophomoric oppressed/oppressor narrative who have no sense of scope or perspective or just looking for something new to be outraged about.
It makes for good television, but on all these campuses there are maybe 20,000 to 40,000 students and just a couple of hundred protestors. They won’t answer your questions. If they were just protesting peacefully they could be safely ignored. They are not peaceful and the leaders are full of hate supported by a small crowd of the stupid.
Talking about relative atrocities is the wrong approach. Someone in high power, like the President, should show some moral courage and tell it like it is - the Palestinian people’s hopes and dreams have been dashed by their own leaders for decades. All they ever needed to do was stop fighting with Israel and focus on building their own future. The Palestinians are oppressed by their own repressive, dogmatic leadership. Continuing to talk about relativism, continuing to coddle the Palestinians with the ‘soft bigotry of low expectations’ is the wrong approach. The Palestinians live on the largesse of donors including the US. We pressure Israel but we don’t pressure the Palestinians to conduct themselves with human decency. We should demand of them some accountability.
