since the horrific Hamas attack on Israel. That said, I have never been more ashamed than to see free speech (NOT that which clearly supports terrorist Hamas or Hezbollah, but that specifically in support of innocent civilians, especially children) be viciously opposed and its proponents attacked/silenced/arrested/deported depending on the "where" ) We should ALL be ashamed and horrified at THAT AS WELL as the rise of antisemitism--especially promoted by the "talk out of both sides" administration that promotes the rise of vocal MAGAT endorsed-Nazism at the same time they purport to support Israel.

We either believe in nonviolent FREE SPEECH or we don't. We either fight against HATRED or we don't.
