The spread of student protests in American universities and the violent treatment of the police

Protests by students in various American universities condemning the war in Gaza have been met with widespread repression by the security forces, the possibility of students being suspended from the university and arrested by the police of this country.

The Guardian, in a report published today (Thursday, May 2), discussed the various dimensions of these protests, which shows that they have spread throughout the United States of America and many students have joined these protests.

According to the Guardian report, only at the University of California, hundreds of police with anti-riot equipment have surrounded protesting students, and so far more than a thousand supporters of the pro-Palestinian camp in California have been arrested by the police.

In other American universities, including the University of Los Angeles, a long line of police has been formed in front of the protesting students and orders have been issued to arrest more than a thousand students.

The Guardian called these student protests the biggest student protests since the anti-Vietnam War protests in the 1960s and wrote that students across the United States have called for a cease-fire in Gaza and the withdrawal of their universities from Israeli companies and companies that supply weapons to the Israeli army.
