Are all the Pro-Palestine, anti Israel protests helping or hurting the Democrats?

why haven't we eradicated this terrorist group?

they have existed for decades.

if this group was launching missiles into the US(or any other country) we would have done away with them years ago.

however, if isreal does the same... they are castigated for it.

we haven't done away with the group that did 9/11. that's because you can't bomb an idea. and there were tons of protest against the post-9/11 wars. so disingenuous.

Can speak to this personally. The pro-Israel counterprotesters at the protest I've been at spend the whole time jeering and hurling slurs to try to bait us into engaging. We just ignore them and that makes them even madder lol.

Is he being blocked because he's Jewish or is he being blocked because all students are being blocked. You guys love to complain about people pulling the race card unjustifiably. Can't have it both ways. Show me that only Jewish students are being blocked.

(I don't think any student should be blocked and my local protest is not doing so)

The tweet says "because he is JEWISH", you offered no clarification of your own, and you've made that same accusation earlier in the thread so I assumed you agreed with that. If you don't, I'm happy to accept that!

the greater point is that, contrary to what some are saying, not all of these protests are without issue.

i find it reprehensible to intrude on someone's freedom b/c your all up in your feels. 

you want to protest, fine. let someone who wants to go to class do their thing.

as noted previously, there's some schools that have had to go to online classes and whose functions (graduation) are in jeopardy. it's classless.
