Why are protestors not going to Gaza?

We can see that these anti-Semitic protestors want to help the Intifada, and want
the Israelis genocided, and removed from their homeland. Why don't they go to
Gaza, instead of staging worthless protests around the country?

When 911 happened 100's of thousands of Americans joined the military, because
they were brave. I guess it should be obvious, that none of these kids are brave.

The protestors were either professional agitators stirring up trouble or that yally uniformed about why the war is being fought. All we are are hell. All ears cause the deaths of more innocent citizens than warriors. That is the nature of war. Everyone should look at photos of Europe after WWII, l arn how many civilians were slaughtered. If you have no idea where to start, look up carpet bombing, look at fir bombing of Dresden. If you think israel should now stop, before Hamas is wiped out, when would you have suggested the allies stop hammering Germany and Japan?

@samueltyler2 It would be like protesting during WWII and siding with Hitler.

These protestors are pretending that Oct 7th didn't happen, that Israel was not
attacked, and women and children were not raped and slaughtered.
This war could end now, if Hamas surrendered. But these protestors want
Israel to surrender, and give up their homeland.

It's more of you creating a word salad, but you have no clue what it means. Let me break it down to you.

Why are protestors not going to Gaza?

This being a hypothetical, and ignorant question, I will give a hypothetical, but accurate answer.

It's because Gaza has been under lockdown since its inception, and more so since the Israeli withdrawal in 2005. No one is allowed in and out.

Really? Why did they have Intifada banners hanging from the colleges?

What do you think Intifada means? And if you did not guess the original Intifada slogan "no taxation without representation", then you would be wrong. So, why do you think the same slogan used by the American Revolution is a bad thing?

I'm sure that some of the protesters are just as ignorant as you are, and may mean something else.

Why are they saying "River to the sea"? Oh I see, you don't understand what that means.

I don't know if you understand, but at least you're asking, so I will school you on this as well.

The Palestinian new chant is:

From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free

I'm sure some of the protesters mean eradication of the State of Israel, but those demanding a 2-state solution, are trolling Netanyahu claim, on quite a few occasions, going back all the way to when he was a young politician, that Israel must have control of the land "between the river and the sea".

And seeing that you don't know where this come from, let's go back 3,000+ years, when according to the Old Testament, God gave the area between the river and the sea to the Jews.

Look it up little fella.

I really don't need to, but I understand your empty statements. You can't help it, when you've got nothing.

But regal me, some more, with how you believe that Gazans should dig wells and drink, after all, you did it on your property, so let them drink coke instead.

We can see that these anti-Semitic protestors want to help the Intifada, and want
the Israelis genocided

It's possible that some want Jews dead, but the fact is, that today, a near genocide is committed against a trapped population, in violation of human rights, that so far has killed about 35,000, most children and women.

So, while some anti-semites might be chanting, the IDF is doing most of the genociding.

and removed from their homeland.

It is their land. It is occupied by Israel. Same with the West Bank. Both facts acknowledged by the international community. Even the US refer to them as the occupied territories.

When 911 happened 100's of thousands of Americans joined the military, because
they were brave. I guess it should be obvious, that none of these kids are brave.

Your tripped over your proverbial rhetorical dick here.

@samueltyler2 Even in a war, there is a standard of conduct. Your WWII comparisons are cold blooded justifications and there is really no equivalency here. The world has moved on from mass extermination in the name of revenge.

@Northwest many would disagree with you. Have you any knowledge of the way Hamas planned to slaughter Israelis, and how they carried out that attack? Do you believe Hamas would have just apologized and not further attacked had Israel not responded with force? It wasn't for "revenge" during WWII nor now.

Is it your belief that Israel was developed by taking away people's land against their will and has no right to exist?

@DogMan Your knowledge of history, is only surpassed by your knowledge of water extraction. Pretty much does not exist. But you can bring a horse to water, but you cannot make them understand that you don't tap into dry sand, and expect to get coke.

@Northwest you can be as nasty as you want, but your comments don't make sense. Tell me simply and straight forward, do you think Israel is a legitimate state and has a right to exist?

@samueltyler2 Did I hurt your feelings? Perhaps my comments don't make sense, because you don't have a clue.

But more importantly, when you say
Tell me simply and straight forward, do you think Israel is a legitimate state and has a right to exist?

You're asking because something I said led you to that conclusions, or you're a slave to strawman arguments. So,, which is it?

I mean, I don't start out a conversation with you saying "Let me ask you a straight forward question: do you surf the web for pedophilia?"

@Northwest Good try at side stepping. Your lack of answer answers the question. Starting with that premise, your remarks are abhorrent, but expected.
