B-Man Posted May 9 Posted May 9 It's like some of the posters here, They just can't realize how their words sounds to others. Princeton anti-Israel hunger strikers: University ‘forced’ us to do this Seventeen Princeton students began a hunger strike last Friday until the university agreed to meet with them to discuss divestment from Israel and the dropping of charges against students who had occupied a campus building. According to The Daily Princetonian, student Sameer Riaz said he believed he and his comrades “were forced into” their hunger strike by school officials. Areeq Hasan, another hunger striker, said all those participating are “very well-supported” — unlike “political prisoners who are in Palestine.” David Chmielewski said the strikers’ demands were “not that intense” as activists only wanted a meeting (along with the dismissal of criminal/disciplinary charges against the aforementioned occupiers). He added if Princeton “want[s] to let us starve, then they’re welcome to do that.” https://www.thecollegefix.com/princeton-anti-israel-hunger-strikers-university-forced-us-to-do-this/ . 1

I want to give you the benefit of the doubt and think that it’s satirical. The comment "Willing to die for their convictions" was not supposed to be satirical. I take them to be sincere. They say they are on a hunger strike until their demands are met. If the demands are not met and they stay the course, they'll starve to death. Will take a lot of gumption to see it through either way it works out. 2
Tommy Callahan Posted May 10 Posted May 10 This could be interesting. That it's army has new mandates. Like targeting protesters of our foreign policy. 1

Hard to imagine anyone believing that but that’s what makes the world go round. 1
B-Man Posted May 10 Posted May 10 Disgraceful. Leftists Hamas-loving students run these universities Xavier University Cancels Commencement Speech by U.N. Ambassador KAREN TOWNSEND Xavier University of Louisiana in New Orleans rescinded an invitation to United Nations Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield to speak at the university's commencement. It was the second school to do so. The University of Vermont also canceled Thomas-Greenfield's commencement address. The reason is the protests on campus. Both schools pointed to pressure from students and the community over the Biden administration's support for Israel in its war against Hamas. https://hotair.com/karen-townsend/2024/05/10/xavier-university-cancels-commencement-speech-by-un-ambassador-n3788135 .
Irv Posted May 10 Posted May 10 Israeli tanks rolling into Rafah. I guess Netanyahu didn't listen to the backstabber Demented Biden. What a diplomatic failure. He laughed in his face like everybody else. Alienate a longtime ally and further weaken America's reputation. Nice work. What a mess. 1

Omg you're so right! I wish he were out trying to bribe oil execs to give him a billion $. I mean, Israel's probably gonna get run over now right? Yeah you are so right, brilliant thing to cry over. Next headline is gonna be Hamas overruns Israel. Yup. There a bingo or bridge game you missing right now?
Big Blitz Posted May 10 Posted May 10 Spot on. I’ll let the son of the co founder of Hamas break it down. Or you can rely on Greta Thunberg for your history lessons. 1

Oh this is gold! How does Russia compare to Hamas as a threat? WAIT! Let me pop some popcorn, I can't wait to hear this. Explain to me the parallels between a world power (though admittedly maybe that's bs) to a terrorist organization. You'd better do it quick before Israel is overrun. Then maybe you can add a little color around your hero talking about encouraging Russia to attack Nato countries not paying their fair share? I mean, while you're drawing parallels. “‘You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent?’” Trump recounted saying. “‘No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills.’” I feel sorry for you. Desperately trying to defend a political party that isn't just circling the drain, it slithered into the sewer around 2016. Your comparisons are pathetic. Years from now the new younger generation will look at people like you with scorn and contempt. Dems aren't perfect. There's a lot I dislike. But they are light years better than the criminal shite-show you can't help but defend.
