44. The students that got doxxed. Are they calling for the iraddication of Israel?

The extermination of Jews? If you doxx somebody's daughter over their support for Palestine, you gonna call a kick in the teeth by her Dad felonious assault, or "consequences?"

Opposition to Hamas is pretty widespread in this country. Just a few fringe elements might support their existence and what they did.

But there is also valid and growing criticism of the State of Israel in how it has handled the occupied territories.

Are there anti-Semites in these organizations expressing support for Palestine? I'm sure there are a some.

But expressing support for Palestine and criticism of Israel isn't in itself racist.
