Ohio’s pro-Palestinian conference passes without very much fanfare

[Herschel]

— After months of anticipation and a weekend of Jewish counter-activism, a national pro-Palestinian conference has passed without too much fanfare.
Jewish groups had debated the best strategy to confront the Third Student Conference of the Palestine Solidarity Movement, held Nov. 7-9 at Ohio State University.

Jewish activists from as far away as Milwaukee and New York streamed to Columbus to protest the Palestinian event, while members of the local Jewish community urged them to keep a low profile.

Still, nearly 200 Israel supporters from across the United States, more than half of them from Cleveland, joined in a cacophony of chants, songs and prayers on a sunny but chilly afternoon outside the building where the pro-Palestinian conference was held.

Inside, Palestinian supporters differed on whether it was okay to support suicide bombings and other terrorist attacks against Israelis.

=====================


They are debating homicide bombers. I suppose they are pondering whether murder is acceptable. Please!

1. The Unabomber was a homicide bomber.

It's a pretty redundant term. Anyone who bombs anyone in order to kill them is a homicide bomber. The difference is that these individuals take their own lives in the process. Hence the term suicide bombing. Please let us not use dumbed down language employed by Faux news.
