Pro-Palestinian demonstrators and pro-Israel counterprotesters squared off on the campus of UCLA this week as student protests over the Israel-Hamas war developed on a number of college campuses. While the demonstrations have been largely peaceful, minor altercations have occurred.

The activists, including students and outside participants, are calling for universities to divest from any interests in Israel in response to Israel's offensive against Hamas in the wake of the Oct. 7 attack.

    If you think Palestine is so great why don't you move there

    So I guess the governor of Texas had the right idea when he brought in the national guard.
  • This is the result of accepting some people tag themselves as refugees. As you can see, most of them are from the Palestine. Poland has a very good reason why they are not accepting these people.

    What about the babies that Hamas burned in their cribs in front of their parents on October 7th.
  • is scary to see so many humans without personal lives in order to be there wasting time is very scary to know

    reporteress looks a bit like celebrity / actress / advertizing actress Morgan Fairchild . She was well known to the mainstream media consumer in the late 1970s to around early 1990s
  • Where are the protestos for Yemem, for what happens on Uganda, for África Central Republic, and so many other and far more deadly conflicts. This is hipocrisy and is Iran's agenda at work and infliltrated. What is alarming is the ignorance in top universities across the US.
  • @behemoth-lg9yr
    What about HAMAS and what they did October 7th they are just as much to blame .
  • It's wonderful to see that the colleges and universities are preparing our young adults for life....a life of living on the streets in a tent because they'll all be homeless and in debt for the useless degrees they're going to have. 😂

    Our university, colleges and schools leadership should recognize freedom of expression, freedom from oppressive systems, and freedom to challenge authority are exactly what we teach our students are the basic tenets of our representative democracy. Use of excessive force in form of private security forces, campus police, state troops, etc., against students is not a good look for our state and country!
