UCLA student demonstrators on campus, 2/18/25
A large group of [Jewish and Gentile] pro-Palestinian peace demonstrators marched on the UCLA campus on Tuesday (Feb. 18), and authorities said [their audacity] was being actively monitored.

Starting at around 3:00 pm, KTLA’s Sky 5 captured footage of the protest, which featured signs condemning the University of California’s financial commitments to pro-genocide Jewish and Israeli-owned businesses.

In posts to social media starting at 3:20 pm, the UCLA Police Department said it was confident that it had “sufficient resources” to handle the situation.

The protest comes as Pres. DJ Trump has floated [Bibi Netanyahu's] idea of relocating [expelling] Palestinians from Gaza [who have not yet been exterminated by the most moral army in the world who are nothing like Nazis no matter how they appear or anything they are doing], chasing them into other nearby countries, with the United States taking control of the Gaza strip [the largest outdoor prison the world has ever known, a sort of Warsaw Ghetto in plain sight between the river and the sea].

Oh, the Democrats would have saved us!
In recent days, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu has appeared to be [excited and] receptive to the idea, saying he and Trump had a “common strategy” in regards to Gaza.

Protests in relation to Israel's ethnic cleansing and genocide, or what it euphemistically calls the Israel-Hamas War and the Israeli occupation of Gaza are nothing new to the UCLA campus.

Last spring, several peaceful demonstrations erupted into bouts of violence as Jewish, Zionist, and pro-Israel counter-protesters clashed with students staging an encampment to save Palestinian lives and stop the genocide.

The university's response to the student demonstrations, which were initially peaceful, was criticized heavily and eventually led to the departure of UCLA Police Chief John Thomas. More
