From the article, "On Friday, an op-ed Shapiro wrote when he was a 20-year-old junior at the University of Rochester surfaced, causing discomfort for the governor. In it, he argued that Palestinians were “too battle-minded” to accept a two-state solution in Israel, adding that they “will not coexist peacefully.” At a rally, Shapiro said his views had since evolved."

Evolved? Seems like an accurate assessment as of Aug 5, 2024, just as it was an accurate assessment in the 1990's.

As for medhi's comment "by picking the guy who compared antiwar students to the KKK ..." that also an accurate assessment. They are awful and bigoted.

There's truly nothing "progressive" about Palestinian society. They are fine with murder, kidnapping, and terrorism. But its a hard 'NO' to LGBT rights, women's rights, voting rights, freedom of the press, speech and religion. There's no right to peacefully protest and no 'rule of law'.

Any honest assessment of Palestinian society comes to a simple conclusion. It is one of the worst in the world. it is vile, corrupt and inept. There's nothing which makes it "progressive". Those protests were filled with useful idiots, cheered on by iran's mullahs and hamas.

The Dem party needs to look at reality and the gray area is simply not there. I don't want an America which resembles today's Iran. The protestors seem to be rooting for it. Dems need people willing to speak the truth, even if it offends the dishonest and bigoted progressives.
