Western media wants to make the student uprising look violent
A Canadian civil activist believes that the Western media are trying to make the protests of supporters of Palestine in Western universities look violent and racist. |
Mehr News, Intergroup International: American universities have witnessed the intensification of repression of pro-Palestinian student activists in recent days; The students who peacefully sat down and protested in support of Palestine and condemning the crimes committed by the Zionist regime in the Gaza Strip, and their suppression has recorded disturbing images.
Tyler Berglund, Canadian civil activist in an interview with Mehr, answers our questions about this Protests and repression followed. We read the details of this conversation.
Previously in America, famous groups and activists held protests in support of Palestine, but they refused to continue the protests. They were not hindered. Why does the American government react violently to student protests?
Universities are centers where the Israel lobby is very important. How the Israeli lobby educates the youth to support the future generations of Western/American leaders, elites and thinkers is considered important in America and the West.
Why do the American police deal violently with peaceful student protests? How can the American government, which claims to defend human rights and freedom of speech, justify this approach to students?
The coverage of the western media is in such a way as to make the protests look violent and racist; Therefore, they (the US government) are trying to justify government violence against peaceful anti-genocide protests.
What effect will the continuation of protests in American universities have on their policies towards supporting Israel?
I am sure that some universities will boycott and cut off financial relations with Israel, but it is likely that relations and investments will become more secret and the current situation will continue.
Despite the efforts of the Western media to distort the facts of the Gaza war, media propaganda against the Palestinian resistance has failed, what is the reason?

I believe that cell phone cameras and cyberspace have made it much more difficult to hide reality. However, why did Western media propaganda about the dirty war against Syria work so well? I am not sure, but maybe the reason is that Westerners are more familiar with the Palestinian movement, and on the other hand, they are less familiar with the geopolitical role of Syria.
