    Why is this a bad thing? These Pro-Hamas or Pro-Palestine nut jobs are just crazy… they have no idea what they’re even protesting or supporting…

      1. Most of them are not pro-hamas at all and are instead against what Israel has done. Those are distinct things

      2. Do you think unconstitutionally deporting US citizens based on their speech will lead to anything good? It’d almost certainly be extended to anything else as an excuse to remove other dissent on any area - not just gaza

        Okay, so we should just stop supporting Israel? What do they think is going to happen? Do they think Israel is going to say “since there’s some kids protesting at Berkeley, we’re going to pull out!” I mean, the US will always support Israel because it’s in OUR best interest, is it not? There’s a simple solution to this… “STOP ATTACKING ISRAEL.”

          No? What does supporting Israel actually get us?

            It gets us a foot print in the Middle East, an entire region that hates America and wants to see our destruction. That’s what it gets us.
