“From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”
“Free, free Palestine.”
Anyone who has been watching the news over the last several weeks has undoubtedly heard one of these chants at the socialist and communist-led pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel protests and demonstrations around the country. It’s been the rallying cry of sorts by many of the people who claim they want a free Palestine. These self-proclaimed “freedom fighters” have caused chaos and destruction in cities and college campuses throughout the nation with their adult temper tantrums and abuse of this country’s freedom of speech.
Yet, as much as these agitators claim they want to fight for freedom, they are not doing much actual fighting. Sure, some will briefly try to grapple with some law enforcement officials or counterprotesters. But any privileged, spoiled, misguided soul could do that. Plus, there is little risk involved with such acts as most agitators know they will suffer little to no consequences for their actions.
But if these wannabe heroes want to fight for Palestinian freedom, then why don’t they go fight for Palestinian freedom?
As brave and dedicated as the socialists and communists engaged in these protests believe they are, not one of them seems to have enough bravery, courage, or guts to do actual fighting in the location where it is arguably needed and where it would matter the most — in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Being hippies and putting up tents on college campuses in a country thousands of miles away does absolutely nothing to help them in the war with Israel.
But let’s be honest. The protesters and agitators are nothing more than bullies. They don’t have the true courage to do something like that. Instead, what they really want is to be spoiled, petulant brats and cause chaos, destruction, and disruption in the United States, a country of vast wealth, privilege, and freedom, where they know it is unlikely they will suffer any serious injury or consequence for their “resistance.”

In 1944, American men would lie about their ages so they could fight for their country in World War II. In 2024, American men paint their nails, find safe spaces, feign outrage and anger, and pitch tents on college campuses from the comfortably confined protection of the laws of the U.S.
They are not serious people. They are attention-starved miscreants searching for purpose in their miserable lives. No one should take any of them seriously or acknowledge their so-called demands.
They’re not heroes. They’re gutless cowards and bullies hiding behind the safety of the laws and protections in the Constitution.
