This isn't really about protecting innocent lives. If it were, they would be speaking out against the deaths of countless civilians in Ukraine, Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Chechnya, and various other regions. However, their focus is solely on Palestinians. Why the emphasis on Palestinians? It's a convenient way for them to fuel animosity towards Israel and Jewish people, under the guise of a noble cause.

'There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels…upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!'

How about specifics. Threats. What kind of threats? How many threats filed? With whom?

Who remembers May 4, 1970 Kent State University in Ohio? When President Nixon sent the national guard to quell student protests against the Vietnam war resulting in too many innocent Vietnamese and Cambodian civilians being killed by US military forces.
By noon the first day, four unarmed students were shot dead without any reprecussion. I've never forgotten the four students openly murderd by their own American soldiers in Ohio nor do I forget the historic 40 million Native American lives shot down the same way, on their lands. Leonard Peltier is not a political prisoner, he is a political statement. A message to the whole Native population silently repeated by the US federal government to this day: "The deadly "Indian Wars" of previous centuries waged against all Native Americans will never end".
I have never rescinded my sworn lethal opposition to all federal forces engaging American citizens on American soil and all those who support it. F U UNCLE SAM!! I AM NATIVE!! I AM VIETMANESE!! I AM PALESTINIAN!! AND YOU ARE MY ENEMY!!
People wonder why I have never voted for a US president in my life. Because I have never seen any candidate who deserves my vote

All the dead sinless children are now chanting in USA

That is u.s.a. for you. Minority dictating what the govt / school admin should do? Good, very good. And what is ur govt doing? Freedom of speech again? Too much freedom breeds chaos. These students are fighting for hamas
