Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) mocked the students protesting on college campuses after a report was released stating a Houthi-run university in Yemen will offer slots to those suspended at U.S. universities.
“The board of the university condemns what academics and students of the U.S. and European universities are being subjected to, suppression of freedom of expression,” the school’s board said in a statement.
Since the start of the war, Fetterman has unequivocally backed Israel and its right to defend itself. He criticized the protests, admitting that it’s a “great American value to protest” but thinks the demonstrations are “pup tents” for Hamas.
The protesters have rejected that characterization, saying they are merely exercising their freedom of speech to protest Israel’s war crimes against Palestinian civilians.
“If a homicidal, Iranian-funded, terrorism proxy wants to pick up your college education tab, you really, really might want to reevaluate things,” -Fetterman.
I wonder where accepting $246,550 in campaign contributions to support a genocidal, apartheid state falls into his list of things that might make you want to reevaluate your life. granted, it's rooky numbers to alot of the others on that list.
That AIPAC money must be some strong ass shit to make all these motherfuckers so blind and dumb. At this rate if we get a dictatorship, it will nearly be because Dems couldn't call a genocide a genocide and do the right thing. The kicker is the fucken dictator is on the same league. We are so fucking fucked. I am so upset at all of you "leaders".
There needs to be a massive exodus from Israel for the Palestinians. Then when the powers at be recognize they have no place to go they can be given their own country right smack in the middle of a bunch of other diametrically opposing nations. A new Palestinian land in the center of Western Europe or the USA. Then all the Middle Eastern powers can support and arm them....
Ooh! I vote for Texas! That would be fun to watch. Imagine a bunch of Arabs with the full support of the US military planted in west Texas.
They see how this POS turned out, not like it was a secret, and they will still insist we need to VBNMW
