College Students Revel in Blissful Ignorance at Pro-Gaza Rallies

There is an obvious explanation as to why college students engage in “atrocity denialism” at pro-Palestinian marches.

They are (well) clueless, and devoid of all rational thinking. The students aren’t shy about expressing their blissfully ignorant critique of Hamas as “liberators,” and their creepy foray into painting the dark side of evil — the slaughter and torture of innocent civilians in Israel — as “necessary.”

Parents don’t have to wonder what’s happening with their kids’ expensive education, they can watch the academic dumpster fire on social media. There isn’t a shortage of embarrassing outtakes of the privileged millennials who are passionate about their pro-Palestine cause and at the same time prove themselves to be passionate know-nothings.

If you’ve missed the most absurd outtakes, I regard you as lucky. Still, a brief overview may be in order to gain perspective on how unhinged our morally challenged youth have become as they allow themselves to become part of the herd.

Let us start with the more amiable students, and work our way down to the unabashed Israelophobes and Jew haters.

Wearing a bright smile, a male student was asked to explain the catchy phrase on his placard that reads: “From the river to the sea — Palestine will be free.” This slogan was and continues to be widely recycled among thousands of protestors, and hardly serves as a new propaganda tool.

“What river are you talking about?” asked an unidentified interviewer. The question hangs in the air for several seconds. Could the student really be so mind-numbingly ignorant as to not know the incendiary message behind the phrase? “I know the name of the sea,” he offered. “It’s the Mediterranean.”
