Yup. And why not? 95 Billion to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan to help them fight wars we have no business in? While Americans can’t afford groceries etc? And the list goes on.
Money to Taiwan and Ukraine, I understand. Beyond the Ukraine lies Poland and we know how that went the last time. As far as Israel is concerned, they are the bad guys in this case and our slaughtering tens of thousands of women and children. Meanwhile, Fox News paints these protest as pro Hamas they are not.

Tiktok ban started with Trump with China banned almost entire social media platforms from America, Fun Fact: China hated Titkok so they created another Tiktok app that they can control called Douyin. They own Tiktok but they didnt want it...
@@flacotheglitch you are lucky & privileged to have a nice comfortable life & America is the leader of the world. But not everyone is privileged in the world.

"Great Power comes with Great Responsibility"
Does anyone have the actual number and/or list of college campuses across the country that had protests? I am suspicious of the phrase “across the nation”.
@@fraonto see the reality of the terrorists *cough cough peaceful community they're supporting. you're welcome to travel to Palestine as well, maybe hold a "queers for Palestine" sign as well😊
United States of America 🇺🇸 need to bring into the law . foreigners has no right to protest violently . Violators have to be charged and go to jail then go back to their country. But Peaceful protest is welcome
Most if not all the protestors are American citizens. At my university non citizens don’t go on protests in fear of not being allowed back into the country so here’s that fun fact. I’m there to protest in peace tho because I got my citizenship 👍👍
I feel like the u.s.a isn't the manager of the world.. why do people expect us to do anything.. how about we worry about our own problems... we have plenty, let's make our country better and more efficient. Let everyone else handle their own business.
Remember when president Trump was in office and there was zero wars started. Our military was being removed from countries and places that they didn't belong in?
It really is though. Many of us don't like it but it's the way the world played out as it progressed. If it wasn't for the USA we would all be speaking German right now. If it wasn't for the USA China would size Taiwan in a heartbeat and continue to take over growing as an even more dominant super power. If not for the USA South Korea would of nuked someone by now. If it wasn't for the USA there would be 10x the bloodshed in the middle east and an inevitable ww3 would have already come. The list goes on and on. We don't just regulate we also ensure we stay the absolute most dominant threat on this planet as the f around and find out country. This position the US is in also ensures our own safety as no country on the planet has the balls to try us. In many ways I agree with the majority we need to focus on our own. However vanishing from other countries now would only lead to our return for war. Staying out of the wars that would ensue from that would only lead to other countries invading, absorbing others, and eventually lead to trying to invade us.
Yeah that is funny! It’s not like idk… Christians lived and still live in Palestine and Gaza and Israel has bombed three of the oldest churches in the world. But I guess Jesus only matters when he’s on ur side right? Who cares
Here's the cold hard truth of the matter, I don't know where this notion of, "We need to take care only of our country because what happens out there doesn't affect us" started but it is so misguided and so far off it's genuinely scary. First and foremost, isolationism for the US is economically and diplomatically impossible due to the amount of global power we have as the only military superpower(Russia hasn't been since the Cold War) and due to the amount of interactions we have with other countries relative to trade and also organizations such as the UN. Secondly, all you have to do is think slightly critically and you'll see that if we let foreign conflicts go, it could very easily backfire for us. For example, many complain that the Russo-Ukrainian war is not our business but if Ukraine were to be annexed by Russia we'd have a situation that shapes up close to a mini Eastern-Bloc all over again and Russia would realize that it can get away with a lot more than just Ukraine. Foreign conflicts affect foreign policy and trade and will then also affect us because that's how intermingling countries work. Finally, just on a humanitarian, moral, ethical, and freedom platform, how can we say we are a country of freedom and then stand by as another country's freedom is attempted to be stripped away from them by opportunistic dictators and authoritarian warmongers? At the end of the day the idea that we should put "America First", at least in the way it's interpreted and used, is fundamentally wrong and would lead to a collapse or worse of our country. - Courtesy of your friendly neighborhood registered Independent and political centrist
You have given the most intelligent response I’ve seen so far and that, ashamedly, includes mine. Well said, however, it’s so very important for us to tend to our own bleeding 🩸 wounds so we don’t die as a nation, because if we die, we can’t help anyone anywhere. You know the old adage “ clean up your own backyard before you try to clean your neighbors?” That, I think, applies here. I would just really like to say thank you again for being intelligent and absolutely factual and reasonable in your answer, very refreshing and so appreciated. 👏👏👏👏
Even though you spoke nothing but facts, you're yelling into the void, I'm afraid. RU-vid News Channel comment sections are dominated by troglodytes who spend too much time on Facebook. They act like people are stupid for valuing human life or wanting change and deflect conversations that aren't going their way to irrelevant topics because their egos are all that matter to them. There's really no reasoning with them.
Actually here’s the cold hard truth, we’re not trying to liberate people, we’re not spreading democracy, we’re not supporting other countries because we’re moral. We’re doing it be our politicians are greedy. They get millions of dollars from AIPAC to be on Israel’s side. They get millions from being invested in the military industrial complex for any war we’re “ aiding “.
These people are willing to bash a cop's head in, because they believe a group of people in another country are being mistreated, makes no sense does it?. Bring back Law and Order.
I mean, 95 billion going out of the country. Nothing to help young peoples future. “How are you gonna pay for it” whenever a bill is for helping Americans
Ukraine is getting outdated munitions that the US government would’ve had to pay to be recycled. Lots of the money is going to stay in the country because it’s set aside for research and development of weapons to replace the ones that went to Ukraine.
About time. It’s a sacrilege that this was allowed to go so far. Shame on those who have allowed this appalling behaviour. There are going to be many regrets.
@@yoyo762well I stand with Palestine and everything but to objectively answer your question, Columbia is a private school so freedom of speech is not protected on their campus. This would be different in public universities that tend to be government funded like the one I attend
@@zainsalhani4705 Wrong. They receive public funding. Thus they are NOT a strictly private entity. That is why colleges usually dedicate a area for free speech speakers on campus. Its required by law.
@@Operator_68 Indeed, Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians is progressing. I see you approve of it. I’m guessing you’re a christian, because I don’t know anyone else who is that hateful.
@@TheGrobe my country does not allow photos of war to be shown on the internet so no I have not seen the photos. but if it was really bad Im sure my country would allow me to see it then.
but you want the genocide of palestinians to be paid for with your tax dollars ? 26 billion and more each and every year and you are paying for every israeli to get free college free healthcare free land free housing free utilities about 80,000 a year each israeli gets from usa and now 28 billion on top of that .
I am so appalled by Americans attitudes toward protests. We have a constitutional right to protest. If we don't protect that right _for everyone,_ we will lose it.
@jrcIII I think the way Jan 6 protesters have been treated is one of worst miscarriages of justice in my 65 years. When I say everyone, I mean _everyone._
You don't have a right to protest at a college and disrupt classes. Some people there are actually trying to learn. They can go protest in the desert where they're not disrupting anyone.
@@residentgrey , you're 100% wrong. The college property isn't yours to do what you want. That's called trespassing if the college chooses to enforce it.
One group being smart enough to know that giving Israel billions in weapons, isn't fiscally responsible. Might as well build 50 free national hospitals, run on all of this war money.
Do you support giving billions to Ukraine and Israel while the border situation is crumbling and while our Fellow. Citizens lack health care & housing ? Just curious
Funny how these young people dont speak out about humanitarian crisis in yemen, syria, china, north korea, haiti. Its only when israel is at war that they are suddenly so overwhelmed with emotion they become violent. Disgusting behavior
Notice how the person who replied to your comment didn't bother acknowledging what you said and instead spewed typical left-wing talking points. They believe Israel should do nothing when attacked. They also act as if no civilians have ever been killed in any war in human history prior to this one. They truly don't know history. It's annoying.
@@juttaspeaksRight!? Yeah! I stubbed my toe the other day. That was genocide! Then Popeyes got my order wrong. Genocide! Also, I woke up with a headache. Genocide. You made several inane comments all over this video. Comment-genocide! When I was 5, I lost a balloon and it floated away. That was genocide too!
As an American it feels condescending that I can’t be at the protest and stay armed. Obv not on school property cuz that’s illegal but we protestors can buy weapons too you know don’t make me feel left out
@@JBBost you must be member of the letter group to that have deep seated conflicts already to feel annoyed by a comment about the media not about your conflicts using the restroom 😂
@@zainsalhani4705 obviously your level of comprehension is limited to your pee. Nevertheless it is first to see a Palestinian like you who is also member of the alphabet c r ee p group
The 20s people are fully mentally developed yet and think they know everything. Stuck in school some with too much time on their hands, people that own no homes, have no kids of their own, most likely have never held a job.
This is disgusting! Our education is now being held hostage. Insanity! How is supposed to teach you how to think and make your way in the world not indoctrinate you.
I respectfully disagree with you. What is the use of Eduction, when your morality is dying? There is a genocide going on fro past 6 months, have you seen a 2000 pound bomb dropping & destroying buildings in 5 secs? There is 40,000 deployed in Gaza, a place which smaller than new york city, 34,000 + people already, mostly women & children. if you think like its not affecting me, why should I bother? I would say, you are lucky to live a privileged life by the grace of god & America says to the leader of the world. So, its a moral duty as a human to oppose this genocide & the oppressors. as they say, great power comes with great responsibility.
Define, "bot" Copernicus. It's amazing how the same people who support Ukraine, also support the Palestinians who are funded by Russia. You can't even make this sh!t up. Bunch of losers, looking for a reason to exist.

Do you think we actually should be sending $95 billion to Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan for war? With homeless veterans on the street, bridges and roads falling apart, skyrocketing cost of living and Social Security about to fail?
its called freedom snowflake. They can spend their money and free time how they like. The usury system derived from the talmud is going to make that money worthless soon anyways.
All these kids are gonna look back and be ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES!!! So stupid !!! 20 yr olds think they know it all and are so desperate to be part of something.
@savage3114 your original comment said the protesters were changing your country, now you're saying protesting in the US doesn't change anything. So which is it?
They're protesting because they don't like that Jews actually defend themselves from unrelenting violent hatred, but they're perfectly fine with Palestinians not taking responsibility for their own actions.
At minute 1:47 the gal Malak Afaneh says: "Quite frankly I think it's important that people align themselves with Palestinian resistance". So, she's advocating for the normalization and acceptance of masked gunmen storming into a civilians house, recording and broadcasting the incineration of a baby in its crib, the violation and unaliveing of the wife, making the husband watch and then unalive him? This is the moral compass of today's young generation? (Sorry for the odd choice of words, RU-vid has issues with the use of the R and K words).
Why don't the Palestinian people who have lived on Palestinian land for generations have the right to establish a Palestinian state? Why? Why do Israelis who arrived after World War II have the right to establish a state? !
do you even spend five minutes looking up the history of the conflict? Look up the Nakba. Just five minutes for God’s sakes. Have some humanity in you.
The teachers are not inciting them. The students can think for themselves. This isn't kindergarten. Any decent person in this country should be protesting against israel.
In the 60's they would protest but keep the school's open to avoid the Draft. Now that there is no Draft, Protestor's shut down entire schools and freely squat on campuses.
If these kids dont like it here, let them go live in Gaza and see how it goes, and there universities should be ashamed, these ppl that go to the schools should get expelled and arrested if caught doing this. Where are there parents, 95% of them don't even no what their protesting for.
Younger generations are always the ones to speak out on injustice because they have the time to fight, the time to research and study the topic, the desire to make a change in the world they are taking over, and the belief they can make a change. As you get older you start to care less and are more focused on your self and your own family.
The time to make rash judgements. The time to find a cause that promotes division. The time to not have any idea how long conflicts have gone back and forth without a clear answer. The time to not realize that people continue to help others but not in ways that hurt or damage. The time to have it backwards about when you are more focused on yourself and when you try to assist others when you've gotten a job and have a means to make meaningful change without hopefully adding to one side or the other's pain.
Let's see we're giving away our schools, we've done gave away our churches they've been gone for a while, we're giving away our families,, what else are we going to give away,,
israel is behind this. this is what that 28 billion paid for. most of the ''students'' were bussed in and never enrolled in any college. only pro-israel pro-genocide demonstrators allowed .
Do they realize that these same people are completely against many of their lifestyle choices? That they would be killed for it? They need to research what they are supporting. Make informed choices!
You don't know anything. You really don't. If you have ever spoken a Palestinian in your entire life I will give you the benefit of the doubt. If you have even spoken to a Muslim person once I your life I'd believe you know what you are talking about. But you don't.
They know 3 things. 1. Trump is bad. 2. Trump is guilty 3. Emotions Anything else is just real icky. Babies? Yuck, who needs them. Russians? Yucky. Republicans, trump supporters, Floridains, Texas, WYOMING, but not Liz Cheney.
@@MrBetsy-bd5ubSo, wait a minute. You aren't at all countering the argument? You're saying that you would actually believe the argument....if the OP spoke with a Palestinian Muslim? So you don't disagree with the point at all? Just the odd idea that the OP has never spoken with a Muslim or Palestinian?
@@MrBetsy-bd5ubMuslims don't even support Palastine. Egypt doest care about them, Jordan is on Israel's side (no suprise considering Palastinians assassinated their King back in the day) UAE couldnt care less. Lebanon, the part that isn't overan by terrorists doesn't care. Syria almost killed itself in a civil war and lacks the capacity to do anything. Also Assad killed hundreds of thousands of muslims so I dont think he is concerned about the conflict from a moral standpoint. Even Iran who pretends to care just uses them as a sacrafical pawn. None of the Islamic nations are supporting Palastine to any significant degree.
If you’re black it was only in the commies nation where black men were treated equal. Go ask Paul Robeson and how he said that was the only place he ever felt treated as a human as white Americans continue to call him the N word. Also the commies were the only ones to protect an African nation from colonialism such as Ethiopia. Meanwhile the people of “freedom and democracy” have black people in chains in cotton fields.
I fully agree! As many have interviewed said protesters…. They could not answer where these two places were nor could they answer anything about the history of Gaza. Not a single protester could answer these two questions! Shows you how ignorant they all were.
seriously US, I love you, but you have to stop this sick show NOW!!! Please! It's very embarrassing for the rest of the western world! Please STOP it NOW!
Plus the fact that mass graves of Palestinians are being found everywhere in Gaza, and the last refuge for civilians is being bombed indiscriminately is being covered up by talking about all of this.
Failure by governments to recognize and call out genocide is complicity in genocide . Every person in a democracy that is complicit in genocide can be held to account for complicity in genocide and are required to resist complicity in genocide by their governments and institutions under international law .
The young people speak out from their emotions, not with reason. They're so easily led by their nostrils. They have no understanding about what they are supporting.
@@scotthalvorson1161 and you support the perpetuation of terrorism and deaths of the israel people. There is no other solution when your enemy is hell bent and committed to your destruction/exile.

Be upset as to how many people are starving in our own streets....the rest of the world comes second if your own house is in disorder....stop worrying about what your neighbor is doing when your own house is in shambles ffs
How do we free Palestine? By bullying and terrorizing others? Keep in mind these people you are harassing would have voted for pro-Palestanian officials but thanks to your harassment, they will probably do opposite now.
Yeah because there’s an active ethnic slaughter going on. Like this kinda goes beyond the normal left right weird social war boths sides do. This is more like the anti Vietnam protests because of the mass casualties of innocent civilians.
I do not care. I do not know who is right or wrong. I do not know who all is truly involve or why it is happening. I do not care. Thats up to THESE two countries to figure out cus they both say they want peace... cool. Be at peace then. Some kids chanting in America aint changing their minds. Its up to them to be at peace.
@@jacksonrauch9429still do not care. Tax money goes to all kinds of things I don't know about... understand... agree with... disagree with... we don't know who is telling the true story... lying... who all is involved behind closed doors. We are "told" stuff but we don't truly KNOW. Nor will they stop fighting or our government not do what they want to do because some people are saying "stop".
@@juttaspeaksGenocide: The deliberate attempt to eradicate a people (often a national, ethnic, or religious group). Weird. After decades the Palestinian State still exists. The Palestinian population has increased. The Muslim religion is still firmly woven into Palestine. Where's the Genocide? Or are you thinking that Israel, one of the most heavily armed & trained peoples in the world, don't have the resources to do the thing that you're currently accusing them of doing? Without...you know...any of the stuff being done showing in the population, religious practices, or government?
I want the demonstrators to stop their interfering with the education of other students. There's a way to demonstrate peacefully. They are not disrupting a policy in any meaningful way.
I’m all for protecting and supporting the people in need, but to ignore and not condemn one side for their horrific action, then telling the other side to play nice and not concern of their safety. It’s a total hypocrisy and these students is no better than the terrorist themselves. Why? Because having a bias opinion and supporting terrorist is no different from the terrorist, you’re just in a cloak of America students
I assume by "horrific action" you're referring to decades of occupation and apartheid and the recent slaughter of literally tens of thousands of civilians? But Palestine is expected to "play nice" about that and never make the smallest resistance
@justtiredthings if anything, oct 7th should be labeled a slaughter. They went house to house and relished in these henious acts. The lost of Palestinians is a direct result of Hamas using them as human shields. But you people dont seem to care, you guys are fine with perpetuating this cycle.
I’m not one of those naive people out there. Your statement demonstrates your stupidity and ignorance of the issue we are discussing. IF the Palestine people supported the actions on Oct last year, then all of the deaths now even more justifiable. IF they did not support the action, then leave Hamas control, stop being Hamas human shield. The occupation of the land can be discussed but why waited until now? You could demonstrate years ago at school, before the killings happened. Don’t expect everyone is a fool just like you.
