He felt the same way. We noted that unlike our earlier lives as students (when we felt we could make the world a better place) we were now losing hope for a good future. The problems grow worse and worse. Where are the national and international figures who can lead us out of the present instability and pending catastrophes? There is danger all around us, with the worst of the worst vying for power in ways that embrace violence.

It gave me some comfort to know that I was not alone, but part of a huge worldwide community of suffering humanity. // You are correct that there is much corruption in our world.

@@maxfitch4864 I totally feel like @rr7firefly, but I don't feel anything but liking or being capable of politics. I would feel dirty and hate myself even before I do anything. But I think the biggest problem is that knowing the current leadership is wrong in all possible ways and more doesn't mean I know better. I mean I do of course :) for example less hate is better, but I don't have an idea that we haven't tried yet (at least within the constraints we had until now) and failed. So looking at a specific problem (Israel vs Arabs) I don't see any current leader on either side who could positively do any step. The only hope I could have is that there might be some outside leader who could make us do a move. The problem is that I also agree on the regional and the global level there is a leadership vacuum as well :(

“If I have rejoiced at my enemy’s misfortune or gloated over the trouble that came to him- said Job in Job 31 and that is he did so he would deserve being judged. The porphet Job PBUH would not approve of rejoicing and dancing over an enemy's downfall. It's a mystery to me why there isn't widespread Palestinian and Arab condemnation of the Hamas rapes of women and why they have handbooks for that. It underminds claims when they turn a blind eye to violence and britality on Hamas part (but people are fallen and sin broken and need mercy from God and in great need of a savior).

[@johnknowssports5624]

One huge problem that continues to fuel this conflict is the manner in which the Gaza Strip and the West Bank were formed. The establishment of a Jewish State occurred right after Imperialism and during Colonialism. Hence, there was absolutely no consideration for the Palestinian people (where they would go when exiled or where they would live if they remained in Israel). In 1948, the physical occupation of the land was conducted in a manner that only considered the needs and placement of the Jewish people. Neither the Palestinians nor the members of the Arab world were consulted and none of them participated in the strategic planning to establish Israel. As a result, the Palestinians were left without a geographic land space to live. Making a Two-State option geographically impossible

[@johnknowssports5624]

Fast forward to the modern era where there are barbed wire and cement barriers, military checkpoints, Jewish only highways and ever increasing Settlements which encroach and invade further the land space occupied by the Palestinian people- Now you have a recipe for disaster and endless conflict. The resistance to peaceful discussion and reconciliation is pervasive on both sides. Both sides, as evidenced by the never ending War, choose violence over peace

The solution for this problem in the University spaces is simple - LESS protesting, MORE LEARNING. This is a GREAT OPPORTUNITY for students to setup Information sharing groups. Twice a week, students should all meetup in an auditorium at which any pertinent information students discover that informs their opinions can be shared via videos, interviews, historical documents, etc. It is obvious students feel entitled to an opinion about a problem that is rooted in aspects far deeper than what they are accustomed to. They are treating it as if it is a political, academic and conflict that can be rationally discussed and negotiated. But that is the mistake. Israel shares western logical discourse. Arab culture is an Islamic value system which informs EVERY aspect of the dillemma. I know for a fact that well over 90% of students have ZERO knowledge and comprehension of Arab-Islamic Ideology. It's so foolish to watch these kids going bananas and going in circles with the same talking points that all barely scratch the surface of what's really going on. American kids, we don't realize Palestinians are a part of a broader culture, that is Arab-Muslim- which does not use the same set of ethics or even all the same hierarchy of values. If this is not included in the discourse, the BIGGEST point of contention is missed. Very stupid. I'm embarrassed for them expressing so much rage and Social moral righteousness, while being totally ignorant of the biggest problem. It shows how much they care more about being right and being angry and crying, than about sitting down in the library reading, seeking suppressed information and uncovering the conspiracies, so they can write innovative papers on the subject. They are just being children putting on their little show. They think they are actively being a part of the "solution" when in this case, they are imitating many of the same behavior patterns that are rampant in the middle east. This is like a true test of stupidity- Monkey See, Monkey Do. At some point one Monkey has to see other monkey approach and say "that's not working" and go to the drawing board. Or not. There are aspects of Islamic tribalism which value NON-Compromise. They hold on to everything from the past like a grudge, so it's hard to tell if when we are intending to sit and have discourse for solutions, whether they (Islamic-Arab representatives) are engaging with you with the same intent, or simply there to convince you further why they have a natural right to the whole pie. Lastly, it's a disingenuous debate around this whole issue if it is not inclusive of 1. the principles of the Quran, 2. How Islam is an all inclusive belief system- the culture, Politics and set of laws with specific and extreme punishments for what westerners consider minor infractions. 3. that the Quran is riddled with teaching hatred and demonization of Jews. 4. That they practice and believe in the Quran to this day as if nothing has changed since the 7th century. They don't comprehend naturally that laws and beliefs are two separate conversations, and so on. The religious element is so crucial to this context that students getting all worked up creating tension and divide is an absolute waste of time, that will lead to the same outcome as has existed in the Middle East - a NEVER ENDING running around in circles yelling and throwing tantrums about their anger and frustration. The students are literally unwittingly absorbing the same conflict from Palestine to Columbia University. Except its extra dumb because it's an education institution that should have plenty of trustworthy sources of information, and the teachers should be present to this issue and be designing new educational programs on the fly to resolve the violence through access to KNOWLEDGE, deeper historical influences at play, hidden alliances, and critical analysis of all media especially news sources in Palestine, Iran, etc. Cmon professors, are you all still committed to Truth and education as a way to solving problems?? Or are you all too scared to allow the Truths to be seen and spoken, for fear of being a target? If WW3 begins, I blame you, the University Professors, especially at the so called reputable ones (one of which I graduated from). I won 't be impressed when students start getting hurt, and I will hold the teachers accountable for it, for not honoring facts and critical analysis as KING of academic value!

Yes, you and your compatriots are seen, and it has apparently been coordinated as a world wide response to the Hamas attrocities on Oct. 7. Given that Hamas, whom you revere, hide behind Palestinian civilians in hospitals, mosques, and private homes, how would you suggest Israel react to the events of Oct. 7? Hamas and Palestine, who have the support of you and apparently 75% of Palestinians, effectively declared war on Israel on Oct. 7. Now they are protesting a war they initiated on that day.

So it’s a way to stuff money into corrupt American pockets. And then these bombs can be dropped on Gazans. And Zionist political action groups bribe American politicians to keep the scam going.
