It was an attack on the United States itself, on American history, on American ideals \u2014 on the very idea of the nation that fostered these thugs into their disgracefully ignorant adulthood.<\/p>\n<p>In media coverage \u2014 establishment, liberal and conservative \u2014 such protests are generally described as \u201cPro-Palestinian Protests,\u201d which is true enough as a general rule.

If it happens in Russia, it doesn\u2019t make the evening news.
