Although I think for fall, if the Jewish students feel uncomfortable attending campus the universities should offer and allow them to take online classes so they can still get their education. This will allow both sides to learn without further fear of conflict escalation.
Or maybe y'all should stop being antisemitic lunatics who defend calls for mass murder and genocide.

Trump calls Charlottesville 'peanuts' compared to Palestine campus protests, according to the NYT,

Quote
Former President Donald J. Trump on Wednesday played down the violence at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017 while portraying a recent wave of vocal but predominantly peaceful pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses as “riots.”

One woman was killed and nearly 40 people were injured when an avowed neo-Nazi plowed his car through a crowd of counterprotesters during violent clashes in Charlottesville. Earlier, hundreds of white supremacists had marched through the city, carrying torches and chanting, “Jews will not replace us.”

The current campus protests, while resulting in dozens of arrests, have had no reports of significant violence.

In a post on his social media site, peppered with random capitalization, Mr. Trump said: “Joe Biden would say, constantly, that he ran because of Charlottesville,” he wrote of the 2020 election. “Well, if that’s the case, he’s done a really terrible job because Charlottesville is like a ‘peanut’ compared to the riots and anti-Israel protests that are happening all over our Country, RIGHT NOW.”

Mr. Trump also repeated an attack on President Biden, saying that he “HATES Israel and Hates the Jewish people,” while adding “the problem is that he HATES the Palestinians even more, and he just doesn’t know what to do!?!?”

This is a very common thread on the Pro-Israeli side, that is excusing actual fascists and fascist sympathizers as long as they say the right things in the present moment.

The house GOP is a prime example in the charade they've been trying to make out of these protests.
Conflating fascist creeps like trump with Jews horrified by the antisemitism endemic in the anti-Israel movement is every bit as disingenuous as conflating opposition to the leveling of Gaza with chanting terrorist slogans promoting the mass murder of Israeli civillians.

Jews =/= 'Pro-Israeli', the example I gave was literally the house GOP.

Your side seems determined to misunderstand and keep stating the same horrible comparisons you accuse us of making.
Your language, intentionally or not, implied that the entire pro-Israel side of this s**tshow was cool with fascists.

Also, just a tip, thinking in us vs them terms of "my side" and "the other side" is not a good idea. I'm not on either "team" here. Some people think both major camps in the Conflict are bad and/or misguided, like me, and even among staunchly pro-Palestine peeps there are many who can acknowledge that their "side" has a lot of antisemitism in its ranks.
