Thank you for your in-depth researched article.

I think the ability to connect worldwide with humanity by social media is educational and positive. Certainly there is infiltration by those characters who may use this technology to shape the narrative for their use. However, there is no putting this form of communication back in the box.

I do think that it needs to be made clear that the ‘protests’ on college campuses, also this evening at the Met Gala, are not organic. They are funded, organized, and driven by outside monied interests who have neither America nor the People of Palestine’s best interests at heart.

These ‘protests’ are not helping the plight of the people under siege by the US and Israel (and others). In fact, the ‘protests’ have turned many, many people from neutrality to siding against the people under siege. Not necessary supporting Israel, but having less empathy for those in harms way.

If you or anyone else thinks for one second these ‘protests’ are helping the Palestinian cause, that is dead wrong. They are hurting. And that is what they are intended to do…fomenting more hatred, more war fever, more death.

The entire thing is despicable. On both sides. And absolutely the US govt is behind all of it.
