The US Republicans, who would otherwise support freedom of speech to continue to spew hate and racism, found the limits of freedom of speech and expression not to extend to those who speak up against genocide.
Fox News reports that a new House Republican bill would send
student protesters to serve a minimum six-month community service sentence in
Gaza.
"I am going to bet that these pro-Hamas supporters
wouldn’t last a day, but let’s give them the opportunity", said Rep. Randy
Weber, who introduced the bill along with other Reps.
White American students, and all those who benefit from the power
that comes with an American or British passport should call their bluff: they
should all buy a ticket and head to the Egyptian border with Rafah, Gaza, and
to the Jordanian border with West Bank, Wadi Araba Crossing, and cross en mass
into Gaza and West Bank; a million white people, peacefully walking across into West
Bank that is under daily attacks by settlers and Gaza that is bombed every day
with American weapons, to witness the daily struggles of Palestinians first hand.
When Israeli troops use violence against American white citizens, who are attempting to enter into Palestine, not Israel, these so-called elected leaders will be put to the test: stand to protect the rights of Americans or throw them under the tank. This also will be also a quick way to stop the genocide, or see it happen with their own eyes.
Students should thank these House Republicans for the idea of them heading to Gaza, and act on it, instead of them being forced to be sent there.
