Democrats Divided on Response to Anti-Israel Protests, NYPD’s Columbia Raid
Breitbart ^ | 05/01/2024 | ELIZABETH WEIBEL

Democrats are seemingly divided on how to respond to the anti-Israel protests and encampments that have sprouted up throughout the nation, especially in the wake of the New York Police Department’s (NYPD) raid of Columbia University Tuesday night.

While some Democrat politicians, like Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), have expressed thankfulness that Columbia University “chose to have the police come in and take charge,” others, like Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), slammed the police response over students “simply exercising their first amendment rights.”

“The protesters at Columbia demonstrated that there are two factions of the protesters — there’s the pro-Hamas, and then there’s the really pro-Hamas,” Fetterman told Semafor.

The fact that any group is divided over this issue, is all you need to know about Democrats.

It’s not all about Jews, Jews just happen to be in the spotlight this time, the Democrats and the left are willing to destroy the country to advance their cause and anyone who gets in their way.

Apparently there are some dems who don’t actually realize their policies are tearing the country down.

Those who do know, whether they admit it openly or not, are the ones that support these characters who have the same purpose.

Oh, the realize that. It’s their short-term objective. Their long-term objective is to rebuild the country in their socialistic image.

If Fetterman were running for Senate in my State, I would vote for him. He continues to be the biggest political surprise of my lifetime.

This nation-wide simultaneous uprising did not just happen willy-nilly.It was a well panned event awaiting a trigger. Hamas was the trigger. The powers that be would have this to be the catalyst for something much bigger. Mark my words! I am not a conspiracy theorist, only an everyday observer who knows enough history to recognize it.

Well, he is right on one issue. Better than most democrats and some Republicans.

And there’s no longer a difference between D’s and R’s when it comes to fiscal responsibility. They all are addicted to taking our money and spending it. So I have to vote on other issues. Israel now being one of them, sadly.
