American universities have been a hotbed of protests against the war in Gaza, with police making arrests and dismantling protest encampments at several institutions. At the University of Texas, Fordham University in New York, and Columbia University, students were arrested for their involvement in these demonstrations. In addition to these universities, clashes and arrests have also occurred at other institutions such as the University of Wisconsin, Madison and the University of Arizona.
During a protest at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), pro-Palestinian students set up barricades that were dismantled by police. This led to arrests and the use of rubber bullets on protesters. The US President Joe Biden has acknowledged the right to protest but condemned chaos and violence, emphasizing that hate speech and discrimination have no place in America.
External agitators were blamed for escalating tensions, but students denied this claim. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan criticized the police intervention, linking it to ongoing massacres and violation of democracy by Israel. The protests have drawn attention to US support for Israel, particularly with former President Donald Trump praising the eviction of Columbia students.
In addition to these events, discussions on reselling businesses have also been a topic of discussion on various forums. Topics ranged from software reselling solutions to managing inventory. Different perspectives on reselling businesses including flipping activities and selling knives were shared. The World of card grading was also discussed along with strategies for successful reselling ventures. Discussions on working with specific materials like stainless steel and aluminum highlighted opportunities and challenges in the reselling industry.
Overall, both protests against war and discussions about reselling businesses continue to be important topics in American society today.
