Interesting. When you do the math, it winds up that Cornell is the ONLY major candidate supporting the Palestinians, yet Palestinian lovers comprise a HUGE block of Democrat voters.
Hatred towards Israel is only exceeded by hatred towards Russia in the Democrat world, and not by very much. The only reason the Democrats haven’t gone full Anti-Israel is because a huge amount of their funding and free media comes from the Jews who do support Israel (relatively small in number, but huge in money and power) - otherwise the Democrats would be openly anti-Semitic.
Lurking over at DU for their take on this attack, there's a whole bunch of "whataboutism" going on over there.
The Democrats' progressive base definitely agrees with Cornel West on this issue.
