Students for Justice in Palestine held a small protest on Sproul today, another pathetic one. Two protests this year, one by the Anti-War folks, two complete flops. Only Bush bombing Iran with dead babies would rejuvenate the tired Activists at Berkeley right now.

I guesstimate about 20-25 people on the Palestinian side, slightly outnumbering the Israeli Counter-protestors on the opposite side. The counter-protestors were the more visible ones, handing out flyers and such. The SJP had the typical 'War Criminal' posters of Sharon, plus some signs. Very pedestrian. The 'Concentration Camps' they ran last year were much more effective. The Israelis were wearing big Jewish flags and holding an 'Israel wants peace' sign.

I question the big Israeli flag wearing. It makes them look like a legion of Semitic Superheroes. Email This Post!
