David Hearst, editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye, discusses the parallels between the anti-Vietnam war protests in 1968 and the ongoing global demonstrations against the Gaza war. He highlights how these protests have reignited support for the Palestinian cause and prompted a new generation of American Jews to challenge the claim that Zionism owns their narrative.
Hearst also delves into the student protests at universities across the United States, and how Columbia has been at the centre of the revolt once again, with an encampment protesting Israel’s assault sparking a wave of similar actions on college campuses across the country and Europe.

I know how these students think that what their doing is right. But let me tell them that they are only welcome with the Palz' until they get the upper hand over the goal they seek and then they will turn and fall upon anyone who is not a Mohammedan. It's their way and how they have been taught from birth. Believe me these people who are joined with them are just being used.

The picture is a lot bigger than that. *May the 4th be with you.* Today marks the anniversity of an almost unknown imperialist attack, and massacre. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassinga_Day The timeline of this historical event can be juxtaposed onto the timeline of post-1917 Levant, resulting in the current Gaza war. 1) create refugees with the own Apartheid intentions 2) if attacked by these refugees one has created oneself, cry out like a pathetic little baby... 3) attack the refugees, claiming "they are terrorists." The playbook of every empire ever. *Go somewhere you're not welcome, refuse to leave, and then whine about the effects of own actions...*
