Zoe Bernstein, the president of the group 'Cornellians For Israel', told the Jerusalem Post about the increasingly hostile campus environment leading up to the threat.
I certainly don’t want Israel to “do more genocide”, I want Israel to stop Hamas once and for all so that October 7th can never happen again. A ceasefire means Hamas will strengthen their positions and rearm for future attacks. The time to strike is now.
Frankly I’m a bit disappointed in Israel’s ability to fight a war without the frequent use of war crimes. Fighting hamas has displaced a million people, killed thousands of civilians, seen power and water shut off to the area, including to hospitals. Israel keeps releasing more justifications. I just saw Netanyahu go over a 3D rendering of a hospital explaining why bombing hospitals might be necessary because Hamas has tunneled underneath them 😮💨 which… Maybe? But there’s a better chance this is a pre-justification for more horrifyingly irresponsible war-planning.
And I believe there are diplomatic ways to remove Hamas from power. An engagement with the rights Palestinians desire would see them less desperate and less willing to support Hamas - 70% of Palestinians are unsupportive of Hamas’ attack, and 80% of Israelis are unhappy with Netanyahu’s response.
