Dozens of college campuses with protests that look identical. Barricaded tent cities with no one actually able or willing to say just how many non-student organizers are present. My question would be who is funding this, organizing this, calling the shots, because this is not spontaneous. I don’t have a problem with peaceful protests for a worthy cause, but the spilling over of protests into Jew baiting/hating, pro-Hamas/Hezbollah chants are too universal to be coincidence.
