    Thank you for showing us the deep concern of so many Americans.
  • "No one is promoting Hamas"...except the people painting "Hamas is coming" on every monument.

    Not one American flag 🇺🇲 amongst the protesters. Not one. That should tell you everything you need to know

    I don't care about Israel, I don't care about Palestine. I care about my country. If they care so much about what is happening there, then move there and do something about it. My tax dollars shouldn't be given to any foreign country.

    This is what you get with president progressive

    I blame the Ottoman Empire for being on the wrong side of WWI. Palestine was never a State. Historically it's a Region. You lose the war, you lose your Empire. 😮

    They attacked our school bus in the 70s chanting "Down with the Shah". Only because we dared visit Independence Hall. They took our Embassy a month later. This is a long term issue.

    If you have any humanity, morals, or values you will NEVER support what is happening in Gaza and to the Palestinian people. 😢 If you do, your heart is hard like a rock!
  • "We're here for Peace." I suppose it's too much trouble to learn what intifada means.
