I went to the Palestine sit-in at VU today and was a bit disappointed. It was not as radical as at UvA. There were only speeches and chants. It seemed more like a lunch break. One of the speechers was a teacher who teaches international law and he started by saying that he is in favor of a two state solution. Then he kept comparing Israel with Russia.

But since VU is notably more right wing than UvA, I guess it’s surprising they even have a Palestine protest. Hopefully the VU protestors have something more radical planned for next week. Since they were making banners as well, I feel like they are planning something.
