In response, one journalist opined “The day will come when these Palestine ‘activists’ inevitably execute a massive terror attack in NYC. And once they do, don’t say we didn’t warn you.” Dr. Victor Davis Hanson has previously pointed out how such “activism” has “fused with the leftwing DEI industry.”
