For John, BLUF: As an American I am saddened by masses of college students exercising their First Amendment rights in support of Hamas, a terrorist organization. Nothing to see here; just move along.
From BabylonBee, 23 April 2024.
Here is the lede plus two:
NEW YORK, NY — As pro-Palestine groups continued to gather on campus following the establishment of the Gaza Solidarity Encampment, Columbia University protestors clarified that they only want "Death to America" after America is done paying their student loans for them.Over the top? Maybe. But, it is The Bee."Death to America… in like, 3 or 4 years when I graduate!" shouted one student protestor. "America truly is the ‘Great Satan' that ravages and oppresses other countries and deserves to be wiped off the face of the earth…as soon as the American taxpayers finish paying off our tuition loans!
"But as soon as that's done, then, yeah, totally, death to America!"
On the other hand, these student protestors are both ignorant and over the top. They are an embarrassment to freedom loving people. Further they seem oblivious to the attitudes of Hamas and like groups toward women and those who identify as LGBQT+. Where are they getting their education on various societies around the world?
Finally, these demonstrators seem oblivious to the fail of those living in what is now Israel, Jews, Palestinians and Beduins alike. Should they just die? Should they all be "transported far beyond the northern sea!" Likely, if there is not another Holocost, those people would end up in America. While I would be sad to see the demise of Israel, I would be happy to welcome those 9.9 million new Citizens to our melting pot.
