I can't imagine what's happened in the last few years that would make Jews especially desirous of having a homeland.

In 9 of the last 10 years, Israel was the focus of more global media stories per capita than any other country, by far. 10M people — #95 in the world by population — but #6 in absolute volume of coverage over the decade. In 2024, 1 of every 26 articles on Earth was about Israel. pic.twitter.com/yY6q3u44Xk

Also, Florida has more Jews than Michigan and it is a more right wing culture so I can think of at least one school that would be more Zionist. And do you really think that the parents and students at Mississippi State or WVU have warm feelings about Muslims in general or Palestinians in particular?

Joel Anderson, a former CFB player, who now works for The Ringer says Texas is a RACIST institution, like many other SEC schools. Agree or disagree?* - By Poster P September 17, 2026 at 04:12:55 PM

    - Israel of course has a right to exist and be safe. But being the victim of a genocide doesn't excuse committing genocide. Turns out most of them just didn't like being the victims more than they were against all death and dehumanization. - By Beave September 17, 2026 at 06:29:24 PM

      - It’s much more complicated and nuanced than that imo. * - By WestSideBlue September 17, 2026 at 05:37:56 PM
    - It's plainly not historically, except for the ignorant. However, there are now an increasing number of (influential) people who call themselves Zionist who can be considered racist. - By ftb September 17, 2026 at 05:16:31 PM
