that those protesters are not motivated by peace in Gaza, which they couldn't even have found on a map five years ago. I see very few protesters in front of the Saudi embassy protesting what the Saudis are doing to Yemen with US weapons.

Probably most of those protesters in the universities last fall did not know that they were being led by leaders heavily compromised. They should know now.

Oh, and remember to wish Putin a happy birthday. On his birthday, which is October 7th.
