Anti-Israel Protest at SJSU

Anti-Israel Protestors

Protesters have been on campus protesting what they are alleging are atrocities being committed by Israel against Palestinian civilians.

  • Israel had been under rocket attack for eight years.
  • Recently Hamas has been firing missiles from Palestinian population centers in Gaza, using Palestinian civilians as human shields.
  • The Hamas rockets have been targeted at Israeli cities hoping to kill civilians.
  • I wonder how long we would have tolerated rockets being targeted at our cities (like San Jose) before we would respond militarily?

The death of Palestinian civilians is a tragedy. I totally defend the right of the protesters to protest. I just think they're wrong to blame only Israel and not blame Hamas.

Let's see what you will do when Isreal comes and fucks your country and kills your kids with sulfer, what you will do?

Ignorance is not scary, the illusion of knowledge is an abomination.
wake up

If the Palestinians want peace and a free state, the first thing they need to do is to recognize that Isreal has as much right to exist as they do. Then, they need to stop the rocket attacks, the terrorist attacks; etc.
