A US Military Veteran's perspective; (From WNC, i salute you young men) After 911, our Government declared a War on Terror, and deployed soldiers all around the globe to fight it. As a Combat Vet, I'm often asked, why our soldiers fight far from our home. Here's what I tell them; We fight over there so people here don't have to experience the horrors these people mean to bring here. So our citizens do not experience what we do while deployed. And, what is happening now, on these Universities, is a slap in the face of our sacrifice. These woke, entitled, students, while my brothers are fighting, and sacrificing, have invited our nations enemies onto our soil. They're aiding and abetting them, knowingly, or unknowingly, to make a flanking move around our forward lines. They are being indoctrinated, purposely, by forces they don't understand. It has to stop. By any, and all means, available These are not peaceful protests.... These students, are not being brave. They're uneducated pawns of America's enemies. FOLLOW ME! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@drgilbertourroz]

No, no, no. The Palestinian flag has nothing to be doing in the main flagpole of any U.S. University. A foreign flag in such position means the territory represented by the flagpole belongs to the country whose flag is being flown. That happens when the foreign country has taken over the flagged territory. No Palestinian flag in US campuses.

[@southerner66]

I sometimes wonder, "Do protesters ever actually think through the public relations consequences of their actions, or are they just trying to be as obnoxious as possible?" Did anyone involved in that protest actually think running a Palestinian flag up the flagpole was going to win them allies and change opinions? It's North Carolina. Do they not know their audience at all? It's like when protesters block traffic. All you're doing is making everyone hate you. And if you're that clueless, why should I pay attention to what you have to say?

Our support for the nation of Israel directly affects this country because Israel even though they are living sinful lives away from God, are still God's chosen people then God will do with them his self. He chooses to bless those who bless israel, and curse those who curse israel. You would do well to repent, trust Jesus Christ as your savior and pray for Israel to repent and for God to be merciful with them... After all you do want God's mercy don't you?
