The awakening of the new generation of America and its influence on the future of relations with Israel

According to the report of Tasnim International News Agency, in the past few weeks, a huge protest movement in American universities against the crimes of the occupying regime against the defenseless Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip has become one of the main developments related to the Gaza war in the world media, and numerous analyzes in This relationship exists.

In this context, Al-Jazeera network has analyzed the impact of the American student uprising against the Israel regime on the future of relations with this regime in a note written by “Mohammed Al-Mashavi”.

The shock of the American society from the uprising of the elites against the Israels

To examine this issue, first of all, we should note that the majority of Americans supported Israel when the Israel regime began to invade the Gaza Strip, but the public opinion of the United States, like European countries, has changed significantly in the past six months, and the majority of them are against this destructive war. The Israels are against the Palestinian people.

This can be clearly seen in the polls and the movements and demonstrations that have taken place in the streets of major American cities, at the same time, the American officials have been forced to change the tone of their discourse regarding the Gaza war, and Joe Biden, the President of the United States Muthaidah, which sees its position in the upcoming American elections, has been forced to put pressure on Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the Israel regime, to review his military actions in the Gaza Strip.

In the meantime, during the past weeks, the huge student movement in America, which has spread to hundreds of universities in this country and is led by famous and prestigious universities such as Harvard, Columbia, Yale, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is a new and effective dynamic in the process of the American people's protests against the war. The brutality of the occupying regime against the Gaza Strip and the support of the American government creates this war.

It is worth mentioning here that most American families wish their children to study in prominent universities that are currently witnessing protest movements against the Israel regime, and they train their children from childhood in such a way that they can enter these universities in the future; Because they know that the graduates of these universities actually build the future of the United States and will be the future leaders of this country.

Suppression of freedom of speech in America

Accordingly, the continuation of the suppression of protesting students in these universities and the violence that Joe Biden's government uses against them has caused widespread anger among the American people. In a situation where the absolute right to freedom of speech and freedom of peaceful assembly is emphasized in the First Amendment of the American Constitution, and also in the shadow of the many claims that the American government has about the right to freedom of speech, the images of brutal attacks by police officers and armed forces of the National Guard on students and professors The prestigious universities of this country are very intolerable for the American people, and the arrest of hundreds of pro-Palestinian students in these universities has shocked and angered the American society, and they are especially angry with the pro-Israel lobbies in the United States.

This huge student movement in America has started and continues while voices inside the Congress are also raised against the crimes of the Israel regime against the Gaza Strip and the support of the American government for these crimes, for example “Bernie Sanders”, the progressive senator of the Democratic Party in A tweet addressed to Netanyahu, who accused American students of anti-Semitism, said: “No, Mr. Netanyahu, this is not anti-Semitism. In more than six months, your extremist cabinet massacred 34,000 Palestinians and injured more than 77,000 people, and 70 percent These victims are the women and children of Gaza.

A few years ago, Walter Russell Mead, a researcher at the American Council on Foreign Relations and a writer for the Wall Street Journal, said during his speech at a conference on American politics and divine religions held in Boston: American Protestants supported the Jews before the Jews entered the emerging country. America existed before the establishment of Israel, so it was not surprising that the United States was the first country to immediately recognize Israel in 1948.

He said: The first religious Protestant Americans believed that the Jews were the chosen people, and according to the data of the Congressional Research Service, during the last three quarters of a century, the United States supported Israel and provided about 260 billion dollars in military and economic aid.

But all recent evidence shows that these relations are faltering in the shadow of the change of American public opinion.

How the American student uprising affects the future of relations with Israel

Trita Parsi, Vice President of the Quincy Institute in Washington, in response to the huge student movement in America against the Israel regime, by publishing a tweet with attached pictures of this student movement at Harvard University, explained about the current developments in American universities and said: The short-sightedness of the Israeli cabinet is very strange. These images show that a large part of a new generation of Americans who are future elites will see Israel as an apartheid and barbaric regime that threatens American democracy.

On the other hand, according to polls conducted by the Harvard Institute of Politics between March 14 and 21, among the 2,010 young Americans who participated in the poll and their age is between 18 and 29 years, 51 percent of them strongly want a cease-fire in the Gaza Strip, and only 10 percent are against the ceasefire.

Israel's brutal invasion of the Gaza Strip introduced the concept of dirty and ugly war to the new generation of Americans who were born in the late 1990s, and the position of this generation of Americans towards the aggression of the occupation regime in Gaza and the extent of their support and sympathy for the Palestinian people was a big shock for the previous generations. It was America that had a different mindset about the values ​​of justice and equality.

Before this, slogans such as “Israel is right”, “anti-Semitism is forbidden” and… dominated the American arena, but today we see that the American youth consider Israel to be an apartheid, racist and barbaric regime. Accordingly, the supporters of Israel in America They are very afraid of what is happening in the universities of this country today, especially that the number of American Jews continues to decrease compared to the number of Arab and Muslim Americans who make up the new generation of this country, therefore observers believe that they should wait for a Let's have a new critical discourse against the American government and Israel in the United States, which will be led by the new American generation and will greatly affect the future of the United States' relationship with the Israel regime.
