whenever I see the FREE PALISTINE on social media Im like this isn't authentic at all

like if these college students really wanted that they'd need an idea to free it possibly with peace and love similar to how we ended the Vietnam war with an idea, but this movement is so inauthentic and possibly astroturfed by Hamas and possibly our adversaries in the world, because anti Israeli sentiment and antisemitism doesn't free Palestine, plus they have no idea of how complex of a subject matter Israel is and its biblical meaning and the founders of Israel and the Israelites.

is complex but there are legitimate issues when it comes to Palestinian territories. College student have a right to express their views in this country at least for now. Hopefully that will not change in the future. ☮

Also remember, I do, that when we protested the Vietnam War it was a volatile issue - even resulting in death (Kent State). Us dirty , commie hippies turned out to be right.....didn't we?

the Israeli/Palestinian issue has to be resolved diplomatically or the region will never have peace. Many jews understand this but not the far right. To conflate Hamas with all Palestinians is not legitimate.

I am not being contrarian, as you well know. Answer me. If your firmly believe and backup your OP, you can actually answer me instaed of your "don't be contrarian."

Especially since I am not contrarian.

So, answer the question.
