I’m guessing the reason students are protesting is that Netanyahu is slaughtering a race of people who are blameless. The Palestinians have very little. And we’re seeing this genocide online and on TV. And he’s not going to stop. And it’s unfair. Like Trump, Netanyahu should be in jail. Now more than ever.

The West Bank issues have been going on for several decades now. I've been frustrated with Israel over their continued push to deny the Palestinians less and less ground. It finally came to the forefront with the Oct 2023 slaughter. Yet, the Israeli's re-elected Netanyahu once again. And America just elected Trump once again. All I can do at the moment is take a walk, kick the dirt, and scream at the sky.

Never could stand Bibi. He's just a smarter version of Trump.

And they feel we are financing it. Face it, many of the youngest voters have no idea why we have the relationship we do with Israel. Obviously, for Hitler to make a comeback, history lessons have not done their job, and geopolitical knowledge is sorely lacking. It is correct to question government spending, but you have to learn about why, too.

We are financing it and have been doing so for decades despite UN and world condemnation.

It’s also important to differentiate Israel from Netanyahu. Just as we are not Trump, but will be blamed.

Yes! Disliking Bibi doesn’t make us anti-Israel any more than hating Trump makes us anti-American. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Both men are hurting their countries.

Why do we have the relationship with Israel? I honestly don't know. I've been wanting to educate myself more about the ME, specifically Palestine & Israel.

No it is because: JEWS! Antisemitism is always the answer

How about that we tacitly encourage genocide in Gaza and West Bank with our military support?

Their boycott of the vote just made things worse for Gaza.
