To say that the violence that broke out on the campus of UCLA University in Los Angeles was apparently the result of a confrontation between pro-Palestinian demonstrators on one side and pro-Israelis on the other is too much of an explanation. simplistic. The reality of what is happening on American campuses is more complex.
The movement includes extremist elements on both sides. However, it is mainly led by Jewish and non-Jewish, Palestinian and non-Palestinian students who are outraged. Protesters legitimately identify with either one cause or the other.
