To every “Free Palestine” college protestor: If you had simply been born in a different place, you too could have been a victim of Hamas on October 7th. How many of you love music? Have tickets to music festivals this summer? Try to enjoy life despite the political state of your country? If you happened to be born in Israel and tried to lead your same life… You would have likely been at the Nova Festival. Hamas didn’t care what those at Nova believed in, only that they existed. Before you speak on a people and place you don’t understand, remember: you or someone you love could have easily been a victim of Hamas too, if only you weren’t so lucky to be born into Western privilege.
