Columbia University has fallen

Here we offer out opinion just as everyone else. You do the same.

I know it's only the US support to Israel that counts because it's the US arming Israel and giving them access to information and billions of dollars. No other countries will do this or willing to even if they could.

True, here we offer our opinions, here on Deny Ignorance we also encourage supportive and corroborative evidence. Otherwise, you are just standing on a soapbox preaching your individual sermon, respectfully it's a bit monotonous

No other country has what America has to offer they don't need any other help

Are you suggesting it is just Israel and America against all the other countries of the world? 
 

My opinion on the protests hasn't changed and won't change because of some discussions on the internet but thanks for sharing yours.

Respectfully not trying to change your opinion, Im fully aware it's all you have. Keep clutching to it. 

Amazingly if Hamas released the hostages' I would be more apt to agree with you on stopping the madness.

Amazingly, you never mention the hostages. If they didn't take hostages I'd been much more apt to want the IDF to stop the fighting months ago.

For me I am here for the discussion and even though Im fairly certain I'm solidly behind Israel and the hostages.

This doesn't mean I agree with everything the IDF does. I never thought the IDF would get this far into Gaza without having to pull out because of "outside" pressure. I loathe the death of innocent, children in particular. It occurs all over the world every day, again tell me why there are no protests for the Sudanese. FWIW enough pressure on this administration about that situation might get a more positive response than expecting them to cut off a valuable ally in the real world. REALITY

More reality is if Gaza didn't want to open itself up to the wrath of the IDF perhaps they should have realized this was the inevitable response. Hamas thought they would get support from Hezbollah, Iran, and all the others who denounce Israel's existence. They miscalculated badly, and in the real world, there are consequences.

For the best perspective, there were 238,000 plus deaths in global conflict in 2022, the conflict in Gaza represents a little over 10%. In other words, there is a lot of killing going on elsewhere that our college students don't give a piss about.

Heres a link where called Gaza Graduation where protesting students can win 100 bucks for correct answers to simple questions about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict these are college students mind you
