Mark Davis 339 Posted October 12, 2023 9 hours ago, The Real timschochet said: Are you expecting some kind of answer you don’t already know? Egypt wants nothing to do with Hamas. They want nothing to do with Palestinians. They’re not an oil rich nation, they can barely feed their own people, and they’re constantly putting down extremists in their midst like the Muslim brotherhood. Beyond this, historically, Egypt is one of several Arab nations who are willing to see Palestinians suffer because it makes Israel look worse. Also roughly 60% of Gaza voted for Hamas. Hamas is not some fringe element inside Gaza. There's a reason they can parade hostages through the streets and get cheers. The Egyptian government has it's issues, but it knows it doesn't want the open flow of people from Gaza because the majority are radicals. Admittedly I take the liberty of assuming someone who supports Hamas as a radical. I understand all the arguments for why extremism is higher there but that's just the reality of where those roughly 2MM people stand ideologically. It's why Israel faces these attacks and why Egypt wants no part of them either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heck CEOs want the kids names outed so they can be blackballed. All this outrage because of college kids? Makes zero sense. We had some 16 year olds around here while drunk at a party use a racial slur on video. They lost their college scholarships over it. We are in a climate today of speech being broadcast and openly critiqued by society. For right or for wrong, that's the way it is. One good thing for these college kids is we appear to not be short on folks in this country willing to shill for Hamas so they should be able to find jobs in a Seattle as baristas and definitely have a leg up if they ever want to move and run for congress in MO-1 or MN-5. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now you are forced to sit in a 2 hour training where you must pledge to be anti-racist and they are teaching our kids that they have white privileged.

crackattack 520 Posted October 12, 2023 These rallies being held in support of Palestine are akin to KKK rallies and should be denounced. The individuals at these rallies should be photographed and canceled. I'm talking fired from jobs, publicly shamed, and whatever else comes with canceling individuals. These protesters are chanting the "from the river to the sea" chant. It racist and a call for extermination of Israel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now you are against people wanting to know the names of the students who PUBLICLY sent a letter blaming the most deadly terror attack since 9/11 on Israel: “The apartheid regime is the only one to blame.” No. Israel is not to blame. The people who decapitated babies and murdered over a thousand innocent civilians are to blame. JFC. Can’t believe I used to respect you.

IGotWorms 4,057 Posted October 12, 2023 4 hours ago, GutterBoy said: A billboard truck drove through the streets surrounding Harvard’s campus Wednesday, digitally displaying the names and faces of students allegedly affiliated with student groups that signed onto a controversial statement on Hamas’ attack on Israel. https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2023/10/12/doxxing-truck-students-israel-statement/ Yikes. It’s an interesting issue. Not really a First Amendment thing because nobody is saying the police should arrest these students or that they should be literally prohibited from speaking. But just because the government can’t restrict your free speech doesn’t mean you can’t face a huge backlash for things you willingly put under your name. So I guess it’s really a civil issue as to whether the folks calling out these students are defaming them or the like — and I have to say, not likely. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
