Victor Davis Hanson on the current campus unrest, and more
Hanson is always worth listening to, and this is no exception. I’m often struck by how well he sums up a situation and adds his own unique observations. This is long, but Hanson isn’t long-winded. He has a great deal to say that’s of substance. I would love to have taken a course from him in college.
If you’re pressed for time, though, watch however much you can. It also helps to click on “settings” and speed it up; I usually listen to talking-head videos that way:
I would love to see him as secretary of state.
Lefties are doing this from one of their bastions higher education facilities, I would draw your own conclusion from this.
It seems to be much of the same Antifa theater as seen in 2020 although the Hamashite judenfrei zones have been torn down even in Portland OR. But much like in 2020 few if any have spent any time in jail. I noted that police in California made a point of removing the face masks from the little fascists as they were led off for their stern talking to and threat of a hand slap if they misbehave again.

The campus ‘unrest’ is too organized to be ‘spontaneous’, which begs the questions; whose funding it and who is pulling the protesters’ puppet strings? There are puppet masters behind the ‘curtain’.

Well, it appears there are several pots of money. George Soros and his son are involved. Also, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund has contributed.
“Among the most enthusiastic and active pro-Palestine organizations are Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) and American Muslims for Palestine (AMP). These are just some of the groups that make up the network of anti-Israel and anti-Zionist organizing bodies across the country.”
I assume these organizations use the internet to raise money as well as connections to ME oil money.
According to an article in News Nation, the protests that demand divestment from Israel and a cease fire come from this organization: “The demand has its roots in the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, a decades-old campaign against Israel’s policies toward the Palestinians. The movement took on new strength last month as the Israel-Hamas war surpassed its six-month mark and stories of suffering in Gaza sparked international calls for a cease-fire.”
The infiltration of academia has been going on for many years now. It’s bearing fruit for Hamas and Iran.
VDH sees all this close up at Stanford. Ashe mentions, a good consequence for these foreign student agitators is to expel and deport them. It won’t happen unless we get a Republican POTUS and Congress in November.
