The Discussion That Anti-Zionism is Not Anti-Semitism

How long do you think Israel should keep killing women and children?
Quintessential Ziontology logic and tactic. Their loss of influence and power continues by the minute.
And still they are trying to starve Palestinians to death.
Jewish students, PROGRESSIVE Jewish students, stood shoulder to shoulder with us in what we all believed in. In many instances, especially in the North, they took the lead. There is nothing "brave and powerful" about having your head bashed in by a billy club. If anything, the feeling at the end of a long day of protests, is one of helplessness. We continued our march the next day only because of our unshakeable faith in our cause, which was a cry for justice, peace and stopping indiscriminate killing in lethal wars. Today's cohort of students is struggling for the same cause and are facing the same obstacles. Cowardly university administrations that succumb to nefarious external pressures, political and financial; the same corrupt political operatives in the pockets of billionaire donors and the same establishment doctrine that bombing the enemy to extinction is the ultimate solution to your political problems.
But there is one important difference. In my days the Jewish community at large enthusiastically suupported us. Students today, in stark contrast, are under attack by the powerful and voluble hasbara propaganda machine, which we didn't face.
I have enormous respect for the students, especially the Jewish students who are relentlessly being besmirched in this propaganda.
The "silly thing" is the palpable slander that the cause of the student protesters is to "kill Israeli civilians".
The Dahia doctrine which is currently being supported by US bombs and dollars has been proven to be an abject failure; alas at the expense of tens of thousands of innocent lives.
I noticed the Dr’s who signed in support of Zionism initially had their names listed as they proudly linked themselves with genocide. They’ve since removed them after finding their “prestige” did not afford them a pass on war crimes.
I found this archived file with their names.

Why do you believe the students are all extremists and the protests are about terrifying Jewish students?
It's a much more heterogeneous exercise going on.
Classes are over and campuses have had much longer camp out protests in the past before.
Why are you so eager to call in the military and/or police to arrest and beat up the students?
So go right to violence?
Interesting call.
Cotton is calling for the military and for vigilante violence against them
You in for that, too?

No.
These are campus and local police.
Cotton wants the military called in.
He wants it to be a Federal crackdown, preferably.
He would probably be ok with state-level forces called in by the Governor, though.
As long as there is violence and maybe some protesters get shot.
You've already gotten your wish then.
Pretty sure some have already been called out.
Sadly, like the Kent State shooting, police beating up and even killing students tends to be popular.
If the ceasefire does not happen and the war continues, I wouldn't be surprised if at some point a George Floyd type protest happens.
There already were BLM sized global protests earlier on in the genocide.
Hopefully these are more effective.
And hopefully Biden doesn't try to protect Netanyahu from the law.
What do you mean by that?
The cops killing a protester or just the size of the protest reaching 2020 levels?
Cops killing protesters has a long history in the US.
Everyone comparing these protests to the Vietnam-era ones should remember that Kent state wasn't the only incident.
