Yes, the Middle East is complicated. Unless you are a simpleton.

Useful Idiots – American Students Who Support Hamas  . . ."There can be no justification for purposefully hunting and slaughtering 1,400 Israelis as if they were animals.

"This is not really about Israeli policies.  Hamas is committed to killing Jews wherever they are. (https://www.adl.org/resources/news/hamas-their-own-words)

"And the university students who are supporting Hamas really should be spending their tuition dollars on other pursuits.  Like computer games, social media apps, or a new tricycle.  Instead of pretending to be critical thinkers.

"Because Hamas is a proxy for Iran. The same Iran whose “morality police” killed 22 year-old Masha Amini for not wearing a head scarf, jailed thousands of those who protested that killing, and executed others for the crime of “enmity against God.”

"The students who protest here would not last a minute in either Iran or Gaza if they protested there.  And yet we see those same students – in their tens of thousands – marching for regimes that would deny them their  basic human rights.

"People can support whomever they want.  At least, in democracies.  But let us be clear.  This is not a movement about issues.  It is a movement of the mindless locked into a conclusion without reference to facts.  Worse – in their intellectual stupor, these students are walking on Masha Amini’s grave and delegitimizing the continuing oppression and suffering of millions of Iranian women.  While loudly proclaiming their direct (and indirect) support of groups for whom human rights is not even a tagline.

"Israel represents Western Civilization and that makes support uncomfortable for Democrats."

Video: Activists Chant 'Death To America And Israel' In Farsi At Chicago Left-Wing Meet - News18  "Over a week after activists chanted “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” at a high-profile rally in US’ Michigan, anti-Israel activists raised the same slogan in Farsi [Iranian] at a “break out session” for the Anti-War Committee in Chicago on Saturday.

"The video of the shocking incident was widely shared on social media, where the organizer of the session, Shabbir Rizvi was seen teaching the “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” slogans in Iran’s native language to participants attending the event." . . .
