Based on the unsubstantiated to outright debunked testimonies of Hasbarists who consider even the slightest and most polite disagreement with their favorite fascist apartheid regime to be violent antisemitism.

Meanwhile, in the real world, things that ACTUALLY happened:

The protests at UCLA attracted national attention, particularly after counter-protesters staged a violent attack on pro-Palestinian demonstrators. UCLA also faces a lawsuit from more than 30 pro-Palestinian protesters who say the university was negligent during the “brutal mob assault” on the encampment and that officials did not intervene.

“This was four-plus hours of unmitigated violence while UCLA private security stood sometimes feet away and did nothing to protect the faculty, students and community members protesting genocide,” Thomas Harvey, a lawyer for the plaintiffs, said earlier this year.

How much do you want to bet that this actually valid case will succeed in any way, let alone lead to damages being paid and guilt officially admitted?

UCLA is run by cowards and genocide-apologists.

The $50K each person got should be donated to support the people of Gaza.
