  • So you didn’t really read the article, just (at most) skimmed for a couple of sentences that went along with your preconceived notion. Remember, most headlines are written by someone other than the author. The headline writer, in addition to just seeking clicks in general, is trying to get Americans to read it. The writer was more focused on the core issues. They brought in the story of one of the protesters to make the point that if Israeli soldiers are that willing to shoot their allies the Americans in the back, they’ll positively enjoy the mass slaughter of Palestinians. I will agree with you that in some ways it’s not newsworthy, in the same way school shootings are no longer newsworthy in the US, because it’s all too common.





  • “If you want Donald Trump then say that” isn’t cracking down on expression, it’s telling the truth about what will happen if they do as they said and don’t vote. They were trying to interfere with her freedom to express her goals as a candidate, at her forum, during her speaking time. Trump is a much worse threat to the Palestinians than any Democrat, and Harris is already more willing to challenge Israel than Biden, so what were they even whining about?
