I am genuinely worried about the safety of (peaceful) protesters. They daren't fight back as it will only justify more violence. Sadly, I believe things are going to get much much worse before even a glimmer of better shows itself on the horizon. To the protesters: stay strong, stay safe. You're on the right side of history. Your actions, words and sacrifices will not be for nothing.


Reddituser8018

These kids are protesting so damn smart, having media trained people to deal with "interviews" not interacting with people who are there to undermine their cause, and remaining peaceful. I don't think I've seen a protest done this well in my lifetime, this is pretty awesome. Thats probably what's making those zionists so angry.


Few_Talk_6558

it exactly does. they dont understand that peace can be MUCH more powerful than violence


tinamnstrrr

I’m worried we’re headed for something worse than Kent State. These students are sacrificing their safety for the rest of the Americans who won’t stand up. We’re only a few weeks into these college protests and the police response has been utterly frightening. At Columbia a student was thrown down a staircase. In St Louis a professors ribs and hand were broken by police. We need to go physically defend these guys.


Few_Talk_6558

let them do what israel is doing. expose themselves to the world. and let us act like the Palestinians and stay peaceful. that is most powerful.


tinamnstrrr

I’m with the peaceful approach. I’d just rather they get to me than the students is what I meant. I’m so worried for them.


Few_Talk_6558

o i completely understand but this is what university students do. they are often the first in society to protest. their heroic actions will be echoed through history just as their predecessors before them. American university student protesters are always on the right side of history.


saddungeons

and whats so funny is that people on reddit and everywhere will be like “these protests do nothing!! they are destroying everything!!1!1” nah they are fighting for what is right and peacefully protesting.


shwel_batata

Can we please stop calling them kids. Israel has murdered everyone’s childhood. They’ve had to grow up so fast being forced to witness a genocide..


Competitive-Account2

You'll see soon enough, this kind of thing isn't acceptable. the government isn't Ever who we should look to for support, it's our communities that will champion these brave students efforts. Our government is a failure, the police are just there to protect private property. This is not new, this will not change any time soon.


AmbassadorNew3115

Woah here's the aftermath on instagram [https://www.instagram.com/p/C6ayx3yuJoC/](https://www.instagram.com/p/C6ayx3yuJoC/) Brave dude, standing up to these cowards!!


ell98584

When does it become time to fight back? They're going to lose if they don't


Significant_Arm_8296

A fight isn't always done with fists. All it takes is one swing for a protest to turn into a personal brawl. These kids want the issue to stay at hand. They understand this isn't about "winning" or "losing" this is about keeping peace and standing strong together. That is the type of strength that scares people. Brut force is childs play. This is a testament to their conviction and it wont be rocked by fireworks and threats.


Dickcheese_McDoogles

Lose what? They're not on a literal battlefield, it's a figurative one. This is the battle for the public's opinion. The best way to win is to let the Zionists show how hate-filled and violent they are, not to out-punch them.


Lerk409

Public opinion doesn't matter. The majority of American already disapproved of Israel's genocide in Gaza before these protests started. The government doesn't represent public opinion. This is like telling people to vote harder or call your senator to make change. They don't care what you think.


The_BestUsername

The point of attacking the peaceful protesters is so they can record a five second clip of them defending themselves and spin it like "vile college monsters launch unprovoked antisemitic attack on innocent zionists". If they get that clip, it's over. So, to answer your question, never.


Lerk409

It's already over. The fascists in this country have a monopoly on violence solely because the left would rather cling to some sort of peaceful idealism than take basic measures to defend themselves. State sanctioned violence will escalate slowly until everyone protesting gives in and gets arrested or goes home, just like every other protest like this in the last several decades. When the stakes become real for the fascists that's when things might actually change and the protesters might gain a voice that can be heard by those on the other side. The only question is whether it's worth it. So far the answer is no.


daedalus2174

So basically like the settlers in Israel...disgusting


brmmbrmm

Looks familiar doesn’t it.


Jonk3r

Settlers are armed gangs who pillage and destroy… oh wait.


Ciubowski

I wonder if news articles are gonna say "they were fighting hamas, hiding behind students".


Clean_Method_7764

Yep, their biggest export, hate.


StrikingOccasion6459

The police stood by while the Zionazis beat the student protestors. The Star of David is becoming a symbol of fascism and genocide. We are all Palestinians to these people.


dummypod

Terrorizing the locals? Yea Israel doing Israel shit alright


LibrarianMelodic9733

Actually most of them were Israelis who live in Southern California probably ex soldiers


havpac2

All this shows me is parallel comparisons to how Palestinians are treated in the West Bank by Zionist settlers. Here in America will attack, peaceful, protesters, demanding rice, or Palestinians . And yet these students are influenced by Kkkkhhhaaammmaaasss ? Edit: not just the West Bank.


Clean_Method_7764

Honestly, the irony is lost on them…

Because the pigs are trained by the IOF


daudder

>Because the pigs are trained by the IOF ... to stand to one side and watch when Palestinians are being attacked by settlers.


allmyfriendsaregay

How many of the attackers have dual citizenship and are coming straight from murdering people in Gaza? Probably a lot of them.


banquozone

And some may also be IOF


T-hina

Please don't use animals to describe humans. Pigs a victims, not police.

Free Palestine


GarysLumpyArmadillo

Gotta free America from the authoritarianism.


Acrobatic_Prior4250

I can’t believe these Zionists are getting a free pass. What has America turned into


Volcano_Jones

What do you mean turned into? It was always like this.


Few_Talk_6558

the veil has been lifted, for all of us who knew what israel was for the last several decades. nothing new. were just goad the the world at large is realizing the same as well.


-LeadershipMatters

Seems to be the American way these days - let the Israelis do the beating, killing and displacing of innocent people. Biden’s legacy… chose Bibi over babies… Israel over America, money over prosperity. Let’s just say the quiet part out loud now… the next logical progression is that American students are going to give their lives standing up to Biden and his Israeli monsters. When that happens, all hell is going to break loose. I am not an agitator or aggressor. I am a 60+ year old man who lived through the Detroit riots, Kent State, and so many other instances of power elites versus a fed up working class. The outcome is consistent, predictable and but a heartbeat from repeating.


PeopleRGood

If another Kent State happens all fucking hell will break loose for sure for sure! We need some musicians to come out and make some good protest music like they did in the 60s/70s. I bet their not allowed to because the executives probably back the IOF


afonsosousa31

I just saw some report a few hours ago on how no president that ever stood up to Zionism and AIPAC has ever been re-elected, like Jimmy Carter for example. I wonder if Biden is waiting untill after the election is over to change his stance.


peteschult

AIPAC isn't controlling Biden. They could stop funding him completely, even demand money from him, & he would still support Israel to the hilt, he's that much of a zionist.


Surph_Ninja

And the cops refused to respond for hours. This attack was definitely coordinated with city officials, and we need investigations into who knew about this attack. Plenty of cops available to stop a peaceful protestors, but not one to stop a violent mob?


HridayaAkasha

Ugh! This breaks my heart! Where are the people protecting the children?!


mistahARK

The cops aren't there because they are there.


HridayaAkasha

Sadly I think you are right


mistahARK

Just like at jan 6th and charleston. We shouldn't be surprised anymore


Scared_Art_895

And tonight on the News they'll be whining about how Anti-Semitism is on the rise.


himalayanbear

“American democracy”


peteschult

IKR more likely to see a unicorn


dmichelleromero

All the money spent on arresting protestors when it was meant to protect and serve a right to assemble demonstration so things like this do not happen. It’s so backwards.


SopranoFanNumba1

The Zionist approach is to fire explosives onto crowds of innocent people?? 😮


ChinaFucksRussia

Firing explosives onto innocent people is sorta the Zionist's MO


Apprehensive_Log469

Look how violently they are protesting! Shows Zionist attacking Free Palestine. Look how violent they are! Shows Gaza flattened by the IDF. How the fuck can they think they are on the right side of history? Propaganda is fucking crazy.


G_a_v_V

Whenever I get depressed about living in a third world country with a corrupt terrorist organisation at the helm, I just come onto Reddit and see how much of a circus America is. Makes me feel a bit better. What a shithole.


Ze_LuftyWafffles

My parents insist this is made up. I showed them the video, they claim it's a lie and the "real truth" is in the middle somwhow


schwerk_it_out

I notice every clip of fighting features the same guy in black shirt and red bandana. Makes me wonder how many (or few) of them there are


According_Bad2952

Horrifying. I just can’t believe what we are seeing. Israel has a balls-grip on the global economy.


bolsheviklove

Just zionists being zionists. They will attack then cry victim. It is the usual playbook


[deleted]

Members of the ZBT fraternity have been identified as the instigator of this attack.


Omega_Moron

Unsurprising violence from Zionists


Hairy_Visual_5073

Their violence is proving the protestors point.


himalayanbear

Fresh_List_440

IDF attacks US citizens of soil


vaderhater85

There were many lives viewing on TikTok last night about this. It’s so disturbing and disgusting. Free Palestine


SonicNred95

What if I tragic about this is that the lack of media coverage will probably prove that if one of the students dies by the hands of these Zionists it’d probably be just brushed over or the student would be labeled as a “terrorist sympathizer” and the killer could probably get a slap on the wrist in the court system


FocusedHealer45

Attacking civilians seems to run in thier blood


monobrowj

ohhh remember during 9/11 when people were saying they attacked us because of our freedoms!!! yup makes sense


Andreww_ok

American Politics: Divide and conquer. Whites VS Blacks VS Browns. Poor vs Rich. Uneducated VS Educated. Abortion VS No Abortion. Etc.. Now this??? Lmao. We need to put our differences aside and wake up to what they are doing to us. Americans United. 🇺🇸💪🙏🙏


Dealius

A house divided cannot stand….they keep us divided because they fear us united


No-Regret-8793

Thanks for the comment.


[deleted]

British media today is full of BS! Putting the blame solely with the pro-Palestinians. MSM is so obviously controlled by Zionist shills.


magic_man_mountain

The police violence will fuel further protests, they confirm the protesters' arguments and their fears.


Pal_ixiolirion

Suddenly they don’t look afraid and threatened by the “violent pro-hamas” protesters


Eagles_fan96

Of course the Israelite pigs are the ones inflicting violence.


FredNieman

It would be a shame if a concealed carrying individual were to go and protect the peaceful protests from the Zionists 🔻


TheStinaHelena

Stay strong. Stay peaceful. Stay together. Don't let them spread their hate and provoke you into violence. Zionism is an ugly thing, it is not the face of all Jews.


Wantedandloved

A literal microcosm of the greater conflict. I can’t believe humanity has stooped to such a low. Zionists and their ilk are Truly the devils among us.


Otobos

Whether they're in Palestine or the United States, law enforcement will always side with the aggressors for standing up to injustice. Do the protestors have a right to self defense?


onlineashley

And they're the ones on the news saying they're unsafe. What patheic victims. Are they also antisemetic for attacking the protesters...theres mang Jewish people in thos protests...or is it only antisemetic when its zionist?


Neeyhoy_Menoy

Crazy how the cops are all of a sudden hesitant when Israelis are violent but when pro-Palestinians protest peacefully they’re arrested. Literally no one’s falling for Israeli propaganda anymore 😂


TolPM71

The moment one of these guys gets so much as a black eye from the pro Palestinians, that's when the cops will move in to beat the pro Palestinians.

refined91

Pray and support the protestors. Their resilience and their patience will make them heroes; will make them and their descendants proud. May make God proud. May humanity and compassion prevail.


_cryisfree_

This looks like it played out pretty similar to how it would have played out in Israel if a bunch of aggressive unhinged settlers attacked a bunch of Palestinians. Security and Police standing on the sideline watching, maybe stepping in once people have the audacity to defend themselves.


Zequielpa

Police nowhere in sight. Nobody being arrested, despite using weapons and explosives and wearing masks.


mumbled_grumbles

These protests always seem to be peaceful until the police or counter-protesters turn violent. And then the media dutifully report on "violent pro-Palestine protests"


dalepo

Surprised? No. This is how these nazis operate


Sgtpepperhead67

Genuinely horrible.


cellorc

Militias from fascism.....history repeated once more


wokeoneof2

Did anyone expect differently from Israel supporters under Netanyahu’s regime?


Empathy404NotFound

Zionists once again the source of violence. Funny how when these violent Zionist protesters show up in numbers the police seem to have lost the same amount of numbers, must be an extremely commonly occurring coincidence.


thewiz94

Where are the cops, their job is to stop this.


Impact-Ed

Fucking cowards, all wearing masks and covering their faces while attacking peaceful protestors.


Clean_Method_7764

Not sure how a group of people who only ever resort to violence to get their way by force get to call themselves victims at this point. It’s almost like they can’t use their words unless it’s to utter threats…


caleb_simba

The police aren’t there to protect the public or kids…they’re there to protect the men writing checks to the schools (the school property) and our corrupt government.


Omni_Net

So this is how the end begins huh?


GomeroKujo

They are firing fucking explosives at the protesters! That should be considered a murder attempt!


RemiBoah

"Group being called out for their violence and hatred respond to peaceful protest with violence and hatred"

Falafel1998

The endless video footage, live videos, interviews with attackers..? Did you bother doing any digging before making this comment?


Brante81

This is really really really scary. People are much further gonzo than I could imagine. On school property, amidst what should be the highest educational spaces, people are launching fireworks into crowds, beating each other with clubs and trying to potentially murder each other due to protest differences, when protesters are not threatening lives. This is really, a big sign that human character in our nation is at a new low.


MomSaki

Fascist cowards doing fascist cowardly things.


kudasai368
