    Whenever I see things like this I think back to something Lewis Black once said back during the Occupy Wall Street protests. They had him on ABC or one of the major news stations and asked him what he thought about it. His answer was along the lines of, “When were the college kids ever wrong?”

      Um, now? I mean, these “protestors” aren’t even remotely interested in what’s REALLY going on with the Israel/Palestine situation…they just want to protest from the comforts of their home here in the United States.

        Lol you want them to make an insurgency group and get labeled enemies of the state?

        This exact same stuff happened during Vietnam, including stupid comments like yours.

        The united states is the reason israel even can afford a military. Protesting putting their war on our credit card should be done at home.

        Though they could also all pile into DC and shut the city down. Would you rather that happen? You know what, that’d likely work better!
