Across the United States, “heads are rolling” at the top of some Ivy League universities amid a campus-wide crackdown on students protesting Israel’s war in Gaza, shining a spotlight on the question of freedom of expression worldwide, said UN Special Rapporteur Irene Khan.
I agree with everything you said being the goal of the protests, but that wasn’t my question.
My question was, “is this particular protest sign arguing for the abolition of the state of Israel?”
The sign seems to be advocating for things beyond what are listed in your post, which is why I asked the question.
Maybe I’m reading into the verbiage too much, but I have trouble coming up with an interpretation of “liberate Palestine” that is both a coherent and doesn’t involve the dissolution of the state of Israel.
Maybe it’s just going for vibes, and there wasn’t much thought behind the choice of words, but it’s the actual choice of words that threw me off.
