Student protests show hope for the future

In a situation where state policy is shamefully supportive towards killing of Palestinians in Gaza, the US campus protests are a silver lining and show hope for the future.
What needs to be seen is whether the authorities wake up or do a Tiananmen.

Palestine is HAMAS, they deserve what they get. They should be grateful for the GAZA Strip.

In war the victor gets the spoils. Israel won the war and the land. Then allowed the Palestinians to have the strip as well as the Temple Mount.

For this they have earned the hateful rhetoric of Hamas.

@biandlargeny the war has never been over. It just continues as Israel steals more and more land by committing genocide on the rightful home owners.

[@hippyjoe1955 the war enee in 1948 whey signed an armistice agreement in February of 1949. Israel won.

@biandlargeny no Israel kept provoking and expanding. It would seem they can't keep their word.

@hippyjoe1955 If it was up to you, what would you tell both sides
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@GovanDUNNY Israel go back to Europe. You have no claim to this land. Palestine act in self defence only. I bet you are not even aware the Trump's Abramic accords are the reason for the latest violence.

@hippyjoe1955 Israel gave them the Sinai AND Gaza . What Israel took in the West Bank is a fraction of the land they GAVE BACK . No other winning nation has ever done that .

@hippyjoe1955 How did they get the land Joe
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
@GovanDUNNY same as everyone else : they beat them in combat .

@hippyjoe1955 the Abraham accords brought several Muslim nations to the side of peace .
GovanDUNNY · M
@AthrillatheHunt I mean from Europe to Palestine, how did that pan out
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
@GovanDUNNY after ww2 there were many Jews wandering the European countryside aimlessly with PTSD, with no family or home.
Europe nations didn’t want this large homeless population so the winning team divided the mandate into 2 nations .
Jews in Israel are happy .

@biandlargeny Gaza is a large concentration camp. If that is all you have you lost the debate.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@AthrillatheHunt The Abrams accords are all about the destruction of Palestine. If they were ratified Palestine lost all hope of ever being a nation or the Palestinians being a free citizen in their own nation.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@GovanDUNNY Israel invaded and took the land by force of arms. The same way they set up the concentration camp known as Gaza.

@AthrillatheHunt umm. I think you failed world history?

@trollslayer what did I say that’s not correct. ?
trollslayer · 46-50, M
@AthrillatheHunt that palestine is hamas, and that they were “allowed” to have the strip and temple mount.
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
@trollslayer I didn’t say Palestine is Hamas bc I don’t think that . Israel won the land in a war and gave it back as a good faith gesture . No winning nation has ever done that .
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
@trollslayer imagine after the US war of independence is we told Britain they could keep Virginia anyway , even though they lost. Hahaha
I can’t think of one example of that in history. Can you ?
trollslayer · 46-50, M
@AthrillatheHunt and that israel gave “them” the sinai (it went back to egypt), and that they gave back land at all (none if it was given to them in the first place, and that no other winning nation land back. If your premise is correct, germany and japan would not exist.
trollslayer · 46-50, M
@AthrillatheHunt yeah, one big example, wwii
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
@trollslayer we gave Poland back to Germany after we defeated them ?
trollslayer · 46-50, M
@AthrillatheHunt we gave Germany back to Germany, Duuuuuuh!!!
