Does it even matter? Shouting at the deaf accomplishes nothing. Changing the opinion of people that might not necessarily agree, or understand, what's going on in the middle-east isn't going to happen by interrupting an ambassador at your college forum. Sure, lots of people will see the video, but how many people will walk away thinking, "Yeah, they have a point, and I'd like to subscribe to their newsletter."
More than I care to admit, most likely.
I dunno.. Maybe im just biased. I have a predisposition to hating protesters. And Muslims. Especially large ornery groups of Muslims. And wtf why do people have to bring their countries problems here? I don't goto Palestine or Israel to protest the Canadian / American Government.
Oh well.. They don't seem to be as moronic as some of the militant Olympic protesters here in Vancouver. What a shit show those idiots are..

Wow. Way to make yourselves look like peaceful and level-headed individuals, Muslim protesters.
That's... that's how you wanna do it, right there.

Eh, it's a clusterfuck. If everyone were suddenly unable to mention religion, nationality, or race, the world would grow eerily silent.
Just think of all the parties that would spring up once people realized they could actually have barbecues with their neighbors instead of shooting at them. CRAZY!

Everyone here is wrong. The protesters for infringing upon the speakers freedom of speech by heckling him down, the University for arresting the protesters, and Israel and Palestine for being such a clusterfuck.
I'm going to just go ahead and say it. I'm tired of hearing about Jews and Muslims and their bullshit. Feel free to kill each other stupidly, I don't care anymore.

Once again, INB4 this thread goes to 200+ posts of retards bickering back and forth.
Two words:
CIVIL discourse.
Fuck that shit.
I hear mossad stole got caught stealing Aussie passports. As a country, Israel pisses me off.
CIVIL discourse.
"Retards bickering" about the state of two nations' citizenry is a
civil discussion.

Nice try. Provoke someone else.
If someone presented me with a blank map of the world, I could not point out to you where Israel is, yet I could point out where shit like Luxembourg is. That's how little I care about these assholes.
If you, as a people, can't figure shit out in the thousands of years you've been at war, then fuck it. The rest of the world has moved on without you.

I noticed some of the protesters had to use note cards to remember their protest lines. Are they taking cues from Sarah Palin?

A very sad display from both sides. Painful to watch and definitely not helpful in
any way other than to heighten tensions and spread confusion about the situation.
The principal or whatever throwing a tantrum was a trip.
THIS IS AGAINST THE RULES MUSLIMS

Why exactly? Until both parties agree to stop killing each other, I don't see why I should give a fuck about what happens to them. They SHOULD have to help themselves before any of us help them. Period.
I mean, see how easy it is? I disagree with you, and I'm not killing you. I would never kill you. You would never kill me. See how fucking uncomplicated peace is?

For 5 or 10 minutes until they mention money, lifestyle, etc. People will always align themselves with other people who are like them in some way, and fight against those who aren't. Always.

From both sides? Seems to me there's 3 sides here: The University, the protester, and the Ambassador. The Ambassador was remarkably level-headed, the protesters were complete asshats, and the University was forced into the position of being the gym teacher at an out of control high school pep rally. And if you listened all the way through, Ambassador Oren makes it very clear that he wished the protesters would have been allowed to stay.
I don't know. Maybe you see serious dialog attempting to bridge a seemingly irreconcilable gap as sad, but I don't.
It still doesn't make me want to kill you though.

The three things I listed are sort of the root. I mean, I can't see lifestyle being a problem without religion saying certain things are bad, or money being an issue if your country doesn't matter. Hell, I'm broke as fuck right now, and I still get along with my blue-blood family just fine.

This really isn't about war, peace, who's right and who's wrong in the middle east.
This is about a group of pissed off 20 somethings acting like fucking children throwing a temper tantrum at a public event in order to raise their attention whore status.
No man.
They are Freedom Fighters, and Heros.

National security is dependent on a lot of factors, the situation in the Middle East being one of them. 9/11 should have taught us that it's impossible to close our eyes to what's going on in the rest of the world and not expect it to have an impact on our lives. Apart from the ethical issues, THAT'S why you should give a fuck about what happens to them.

This. I'm not going to step into the Israel-Palestine issue, I just thought it was funny when that meathead in the red shirt stumbled regurgitating what was given to him. And then made that little pouty face for a second.

That's right - because the Sneeches with stars on their bellies are the best Sneeches. Everyone knows that.

Regardless of the issue, regardless of the outside parties involved, protests on college campuses are nearly always this. A lot of them aren't even pissed off, just looking to get laid by associating themselves with militant protests.
You can spot them by their Che T-Shirts.
That had the potential for a couple dozen "Don't taze me, bro!" encounters, how disappointing. Way to drop the ball, Irvine PD.
first of all, i don't have any idea who michael oren is or why everyone is so mad at him
secondly, whats wrong with you people? You're missing the big picture here, there is a grammatical error in the summary!
"during numerous students who attempt"
wtf is that

The violence between Palestine and Israel in our generation is almost entirely the fault of the Israeli governments foreign policy towards their neighbors. Often those people who are the hawkish defenders of the Isreali state call this view antisemitic, but I can't understand anyone with a critical eye and a little knowledge of history coming to a vastly different conclusion.

True, although they share an IQ range with the Olympic partiers, who were so out of control they forced the police to shut down the liquor stores in an effort to keep the situation from spiraling out of control. Idiots are everywhere. Too bad the Olympics brings them out of the woodwork.

Umm, what I meant was that events in other parts of the world can impact on the lives of Americans. There's an argument for letting other countries deal with their own problems but there's also a counter argument for interventionism too. I'm not saying I'm on one side or the other but I think it's important enough to "give a shit about". Especially in the case of the Middle East as it's such a volatile region and therefore a hotbed of extremism.

I watched this the other day and also enjoyed the "anti-racism, anti-israel" part. Similar to the Richard Dawkins "it is okay to be intolerant of non-athiests because they are intolerant".
