Recently, an event occurred at NYU that descended into chaos: a pro-Palestine rally erupted in the vicinity of the business school. Hundreds of enraged professors and students are taking to the streets in support of the Palestinian cause.

Initially, the atmosphere was harmonious, as individuals carried signs and engaged in chanting to denounce Israel's treatment of Palestinians. However, as more individuals passed by, the atmosphere changed and counter-protesters began to applaud in response.

At that juncture, the po-po was compelled to implement some restraints. At least six demonstrators reportedly received handcuffs for failing to disperse when officers instructed them to bounce. The clip was absolutely wild; the 5-0 could be seen attempting to calm down as both teams became increasingly heated.

NYU issued a statement essentially stating that they support free speech, but advised individuals to maintain civility and refrain from breaking any laws while expressing themselves.

Even on college campuses, the Palestine-Israel conflict is a noxious powder keg. Supporters of Palestine should denounce Israel for its illegal occupation and violations of human rights. However, Israel's citizens assert that Palestinian militant groups pose the true danger, citing security concerns.

More voices are reiterating the need for genuine dialogue and rational resolutions to one of the most polarizing global conflicts in the wake of the most recent uproar. The NYU throwdown serves as yet another illustration of the intricate nature of this situation. Certainly, peace will not be achieved easily.
