A Fictional But Realistic Discussion With Anti-Israel Student Protests. Dumb And Dumber - Part I
Student Anti-Israeli Protesters Boycott Starbucks but file Human Rights Complaint when denied almond milk for their instant coffee.
This analysis was gathered from comments from a fictional but realistic panel discussion of attendees at a recent Pro Hamas/Palestinian Student Rally in Toronto.
Israel is guilty of genocide in a population that grows; it is a curious thing. Israel drops leaflets telling civilians where they will be targeting their bombs.
Discuss.
One student said that Hamas always stays in place; he noted that those leaflets were for civilians, but Hamas needs to be fair about this. Other students weighing in commented that a tunnel under a Gaza hospital was only connected to the hospital because Hamas decided that being directly connected to the hospital was the best way they could ensure that medical aid, bandages, dressings, medicine, sanitary products for the women and tampon machines in the men’s washroom could be readily stocked.
Other students wondered if Gaza was in Eastern or Western Europe.
Student consensus was that Israel should not have responded as they did; they should have given Hamas a mulligan or just asked for an apology card, one of those huge ones Hallmark makes, so the Hamas fighters could sign it and give their best wishes to the families of the Jews, Filipinos and children who died dancing in their bare feet, massacred by psychopaths who killed real humans with all the delight of a teenager advancing through Fortnight.
Experts from recent protests explained their disgust with the civilian deaths. They remembered the Japanese-American meeting after Pearl Harbour that promised a 1:1 death ratio and ensured that the Pacific War would not involve civilian casualties.
They noted the example of the nuclear bomb that the Allied forces exploded over the harbour in Beijing to end World War One.
Three of the experts who said their parents once had the History Channel (though they cancelled it after the free month expired) also looked to the Americans who dropped leaflets warning all civilians to flee from the Ruhr Valley in WW2 and noted how the Yanks also dropped coupons that gave Germans civilians U-Haul Moving vans gratis and 60% off last season’s Samsonite suitcase line - not the Hugo Boss one as they were too busy designing uniforms for the SS.
Others said that even though we called Germans Nazis in WW2 - even though only 10% were Nazi party members - it was a human rights crime to call non-combatant Palestinians even though Palestinians cheered the rape of Jewish teenage girls, approved of the October 7 massacres at a rate of over 80% and voted overwhelmingly for Hamas in elections, giving double the vote percentage of what it took Canadian PM Justin Trudeau to win his last election in 2021.
