    In a word the demonstrators are just plain Ignorant.

    Where were they on Oct 7th? Yes the situation in Gaza is sad but the residents voted for Hamas to represent them. Like it or not and it may sound cruel but they are collateral damage. Seems to me IDF is trying to minimized casualties.

    They forget what we did to Berlin/Dresden. They backed the wrong guy, Adolph Hitler and Hiroshima and Nagasaki paid a heavy toll for attacking Pearl under the Emperor.

    My hunting partner's mother hid a little nine year old Jewish boy in Berlin for months and his father worked his way back from the Siege of Stalingrad at night for fear the Russians would kill him.

    My friend from Poland whose property I hunted on for years watched as his father cut up a dead horse to keep from starving. A mortar round hit him between the legs and he almost died.

    When the war was over one of the generals (i forget the name now) gathered up the village fathers from a nearby town and marched them to a death camp to look upon the carnage there. He told them " Don't ever say this never happened, because it did happen"

    Perhaps these spoiled brats and their instigators should have witnessed the carnage that happened on Oct. 7th. They need to re-read their world history before they condemn Israel. So much for our institutions of higher learning.——-Ray

    The ignorance not withstanding, we may be seeing the fracturing of the Liberal Party.

    Kristallnacht happened on the 9th and 10th of November 1938. Synagogues, business’s were burned and Jewish people were attacked and killed.

    I was just saying the other night to the wife, that I wouldn’t be surprised if some of these pro terrorist groups might try and start a night of revenge/night of broken glass here in the United States.

    Hate can spread very fast among ignorant people when their whipped up in a frenzy. The scary part of all this. This administration just seems to give lip service to the events going on.

    I think the chant, from the river to the sea, should be. Push Gaza into the sea.

    Yep, remember George Floyd riots in DEMOCRAT controlled cities. Same type ideologues run Ivy League schools.

    Never much cared for hate crime laws but since we have them, they need to apply to to staff and educators in universities as well as the media.

    Most of these protestors who resort to violence are hypocrites: The demand freedom for Palestine, yet they oppress and commit acts of violence towards Israelites.

    Years ago I sat in my truck at West Point and ate my lunch watching the ships navigate the Hudson. It was a real joy listening to Paul Harvey and his common sense. After listing to him I got a real burst of energy and was ready to take on the world for the rest of the day.

    I get the same vibes from Mark Levine. He calls it the way he sees it and knows that "We the People" are not stupid. ————————-Ray

    Jim, thanks for dropping the name. Spent quite a bit of time checking him out. Behind every successful man is a great woman and seems to be the case here also. ————————-Ray ( Native Son of Virginia)
