Violence erupted at the University of California, Los Angeles after pro-Israeli counter-demonstrators attacked a pro-Palestinian campus encampment. Bubbling tensions on the campus boiled over following the alleged breach of a "buffer zone" between the rival groups.

Isn’t it interesting how Israel and pro-Israel people apply the exact same tactic?! Let’s attack innocent people. Whether it’s bombing innocent civilians or violently attacking peaceful protestors. It’s so telling. They are rotten to their core.

That's what 80 years of cultural righteousness gets you. You start to think you can do no wrong.

Cue up the "I learned it from you" meme because the USA showed Israel how it's done.

It's just plain old Fascism.

Etnic/nationalistic/cultural righteousness (aka nationalistic racism) is one of the foundational blocks of it along with violence.

Unlike Europe, Israel hasn't realy evolved in social and political terms from the kind of thinking so prevalent in the early XX century.
