The Pro-Hamas Demonstrations Have Spread to High Schools

The media will sanitize it, but this demonstration was a clamor for genocide. The press will describe it as a protest over the conditions in Gaza and a ceasefire. In San Francisco, hordes of terrorist-sympathizing students staged a walkout. It will be showered with articles about how this is about the more significant Israeli-Palestinian conflict, how it’s nuanced, and how this is about bringing forward a peaceful solution. That solution involves keeping Hamas intact, a nonstarter after their vicious terrorist attack against Israel on October 7.
In reality, this day of action was the work of a pro-Palestinian group with ties to George Soros. And yes, the people behind it blame Israel for the violence and have the usual talking points shared by these craven folks, which essentially calls for killing Jews.
Here's Axios’ report on the protests:
Students across the Bay Area participated in a walkout Wednesday to demand a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war and protest Israeli military action against civilians in Gaza.
Why it matters: The walkout, part of a day of action coordinated by the San Francisco-based Arab Resource & Organizing Committee (AROC), spurred concern about escalations as academic institutions across the country navigate student activities around the war.
Driving the news: Footage shared with Axios shows Balboa High School students leading chants at a rally, a crowd of George Washington High School students repeating "Palestine will never die!", and dozens of students at Berkeley High School and Oakland International High School marching with Palestinian flags.
Students walked out "to stop the genocide in Gaza and demand that local leaders protect Palestinian, Arab, Muslim and all students against racist attacks," according to AROC's social media post about the event.
Yes, but: Concern for Jewish students prior to the walkout led over 70 parents to write an open letter calling on the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) superintendent, Matt Wayne, to "ensure our students are and feel safe, secure and respected at school."
The letter also denounced AROC's mission and accused the group of glorifying those involved in Hamas' attacks on Israel.
