Raph on Nostr: I see a lot of people in Israel and the Zionist diaspora laugh at the students ...
I see a lot of people in Israel and the Zionist diaspora laugh at the students protesting, calling them naive & ignorant. I can't help but think of what labor organizer Nicholas Klein said in a 1918 speech (often wrongly attributed to Gandhi):
"First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you."
Let's meet again in 30 years. I bet US universities will build monuments to these students.
