Everywhere else in the world there are similar protests and it doesn't matter if not all participants aren't students, it shows the anti-war movement is supported by students and non-students. Israel has lost most of the support because of the killings of civilians and I don't think the majority of Americans or Australians (put whatever ethnicity you want) support Israel when they are killing women and children in their thousands. Anti-war movements are very powerful and students can bring down governments and regimes.
What exactly about the overwhelming support for Israel in the US do you not understand?
UCLA has about 46,000 students less than 5000 people participated last night, and not all of those were students. Wereas in the 70s the protests didn't need outside agitation, it was home grown 100% organic students movement, and it mirrored the sentiment of the GP.
Nothing about these college protests does that, it goes the opposite of public perception.
As for the civilian deaths in Gaza, they are about as many as we are seeing in Sudan? crickets for Sudan, noise for Gaza why is that?
Plenty of signs the Palestinian cause failed catch on, it's certainly not at the level of the Floyd protests. Israel is preparing for Rafah it's going to happen regardless, somebody has to get rid of Hamas there is no justification for backing Hamas in any way shape or form. It would be akin to negotiating with Hitler and letting him stay in power after Normandy.

Americans overwhelmingly back Israel over Hamas in new pollA new poll shows the vast majority of Americans support Israel in its war against Hamas over the militant group despite the pro-Palestinian protests erupting across the United States.
- Younger registered voters are more likely to say they support Hamas in the war
- Vast majority overall believes Hamas should be removed from Gaza
- Poll finds majority believe Hamas is to blame for the crisis in Gaza
- READ MORE: Pro-Palestinian protests take place on campuses across the U.S.
The Harvard CAPS-Harris survey found 80 percent of registered voters support Israel more in the war while only 20 percent say they support Hamas more.
The results break down more among age groups with older voters more likely to be supportive of Israel than younger Americans.
The poll findings are similar to what they were last month when 79 percent said they support Israel more.
Among younger Americans, 64 percent of those ages 25 to 34 said they support Israel more while 57 percent of those ages 18 to 24 said they support Israel more while the rest support Hamas more.
