what poor leadership looks like in real time

They elected them to govern, they knew exactly who they were, they’re complicit.

Their last election was 2006, 13 years ago.

Again, blaming 2 million Gazan citizens, and declaring them deserving of genocide is an invalid argument..

Why are you not speaking out against hamas for their war crimes

Why are you trying to dictate my speech and control the narrative, which isn't about now bad Hamas is. It's about feckless student protests on college campuses.

Well… there is no “genocide” I’ve posted several post as why it isn’t as have others on the board. You’re just not paying attention to anything but your propaganda mills. You don’t want the truth, you want a propagated narrative.

As far as dictating your speech, that’s rich when I’m merely responding to misinformation that “YOU” posted and brought up. Suggestion, don’t post about subjects you don’t want anyone to respond to and then cry about it not being on topic.

Three Columbia University Janitors Claim Hitler Youth Held Them Hostage

Three janitors claim the pro-Hamas insurrectionists at Columbia University temporarily held them hostage during the takeover of a campus building, reports Fox News.

“They held me hostage,” one maintenance man told the Columbia Spectator, a student newspaper. Fox News adds that at around 12:30 a.m., the Jew-hating insurrectionists stormed Hamilton Hall. The mob then “shattered windows, barricaded doors using tables and chairs, and obscured the windows of the facility.”

"Yes, I think there’s blame on both sides. If you look at both sides — I think there’s blame on both sides. And I have no doubt about it, and you don’t have any doubt about it either.
.....
Excuse me, excuse me. They didn’t put themselves — and you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides.

2.1 million Palestinians most certainly did not support it, applaud it, and call for more.

They most certainly have been. Otherwise, Hamas wouldn't still be in charge and they wouldn't be gaining new members from the 'palestinians' and they would have been broke and dismantled years ago. The 'from the river to the sea' genocide chant is a favorite of the 'palestinians'. To try to say otherwise is disingenuous.

You were just being hyperbolic when you said all 2.1 million people were complicit in the surprise attack on Israel and suggested that the dead and dying are deserving of every death?

Prior to 2006:

At the 1996 general election, Fatah won 55 of the 88 seats from multi-member constituencies, with the number of representatives from each constituency determined by population. Some seats were set aside for the Christian and Samaritan communities. 51 seats were allocated to the West Bank, 37 to the Gaza Strip. Five out of 25 female candidates won a seat.

The Republican administration here in the USA, by that logic, seemed to support it too!

Prior to the 2006 elections, Israel had concerns that Hamas might win enough seats that it could demand a position in government. US President George Bush was not willing to press for Hamas' exclusion from the election process. Abu Mazen (Abbas) was confident that Fatah would win the elections, as was Bush, who urged that the elections should take place.

But now we know that in 2006, Hamas won by a slim majority and, as soon as they had an opportunity, murdered their political opponents in the parliament, and have been had governmental control ever since.

Good thing that kind of thing could never happen here, right?

They could be protesting blonde hair, or wanting to ban tube socks, it doesn't matter.

Just to be clear, that's not what they're protesting. They're protesting the death of 30K Palestinian women and children, killed by Israelis.

to be really, really, crystal clear, the point in the op was made, and it's so easy to grasp, a small child could get it, so do your best to understand this is about the failed leadership, not the ficiticous number of dead folks.

On topic the protesters harassed and intimidated other students. The protesters damaged property. They refused to heed warnings to disperse. Arrest them all and charge them with their crimes.

They should not get a pass because they are students. Maybe if mommy and daddy find out what the little ones are up to they can use next year's tuition on a good lawyer. It's Columbia University. Some parents likely are lawyers. Probably why the kids already feel entitled.

opps.... i posted the images before i read the OP.

I took issue with your claim that it didn't matter what they were protesting. You're wrong. It does matter, and we saw the same lack of leadership, or whatever you want to call it, when college students across the country protested the Vietnam War, and 4 of them were killed at Kent State. They didn't die for a hair color or tube socks, they died because they were protesting the Vietnamese War and the "dead babies", regardless of the number.

The death of 22.5K, or 30K, people, and the humanitarian crises in Gaza does matter. Not everyone is inured to the kind of violence you all say these people deserved.

It might matter to you but apparently it doesn't matter to some of the protesters

College Democrats: ‘We Commend the Bravery’ of Anti-Israel Protesters

The College Democrats of America issued a statement commending pro-Palestinian protesters for their “bravery,” hours after protesters seized control of a building at Columbia University.

In its statement, the student organization of the Democrat Party said it stood “with the broad and interfaith coalitions of students” that were protesting and had established anti-Israel encampments at Columbia University, Harvard University, Yale University, George Washington University, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Hi I’m new. Can someone explain what they are protesting exactly?

a reply to: underpass61

talk about virtue signaling dizzy iggymoe beyotch's,

here's a suggestion, read up on the history of the mandate first and see who started the whole mess. then you'd see there are three groups who share the blame. first the british for making promises to to both arabs and jews, then arabs not wanting to share the land that both have a stake in and then israel who is is the least to blame out of all of them, and was willing at first to go with the two state solution, and then started kickin arab ass when the arab countries and terrorists started attacking them.

where did I ever say anyone deserved to die? quote the # out of that, or admit it's total bullsh!t.

they want free Palestine. This is the "I want it now and for nothing!" generation. So when they heard you could protest for "Free Palestine", they were all in. Now they aren't sure if they need any Palestine or if it will even fit in their living room, but as it's free, it's for me! At least that is what I have come up with. Perhaps one of them could articulate it better.
