That had me laughing. When he said "I am not smiling. I am crying in my heart. I am crying in my heart for..." These people are evil on a cartoonish level.

I understand where the school is coming from. As long as there is no double standard.
no way they ban zionist flag. only Palestinian. even though zionist flag represents genocide and the Palestinian flag represents a fight against injustice.

This is what Balfour wrote in 1919, two years after the Balfour Declaration in a letter:
"For in Palestine we do not propose even to go through the form of consulting the wishes of the present inhabitants of the country, though the American Commission has been going through the forms of asking what they are. The four great powers are committed to Zionism and Zionism, be it right or wrong, good or bad, is rooted in age-long tradition, in present needs, in future hopes, of far profounder import than the desire and prejudices of the 700,000 Arabs who now inhabit that ancient land. In my opinion that is right."
Here, in the book, The Question of Palestine(p. 56), the author compresses the Western view:
One must admit, however, that all liberals and even most "radicals" have been unable to overcome the Zionist habit of equating anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism. Any well-meaning person can thus oppose South African or American racism and at the same time tacitly support Zionist racial discrimination against non-Jews in Palestine. The almost total absence of any handily available historical knowledge from non-Zionist sources, the dissemination by the media of malicious simplifications (e. g., Jews vs. Arabs), the cynical opportunism of various Zionist pressure groups, the tendency endemic to university intellectuals uncritically to repeat cant phrases and political cliches (this is the role Gramsci assigned to traditional intellectuals, that of being " experts in legitimation"), the fear of treading upon the highly sensitive terrain of what Jews did to their victims, in an age of genocidal extermination of Jews-all this contributes to the dulling, regulated enforcement of almost unanimous support for Israel. But, as I. F. Stone recently noted, this unanimity exceeds even the Zionism of most Israelis.

@Gacmeey As I said in the other thread. This is part of the psych ops and the propaganda they are shoving down people’s throat. Trying to equate Hamas as Palestine and then use it as a justification to limit or ban people and movements that supports the legitimate Palestinian cause.
Notice how all Palestinian protests against Israeli war crimes have been labeled as pro-Hamas protests and t*rrorist sympathizers (ironically enough, no one had a Hamas flag, lol), and subsequently prohibited in several western countries in the past days.
