What 'Intifada Revolution' Looks Like

Last month, a pro-Palestinian activist stood in front of me on Columbia University's campus with a sign that read By Any Means Necessary. She smiled. She seemed like a nice person. I am an Israeli graduate student at the university, and I know holding that sign is within her rights. And yet, its message was so painful and disturbing that after that moment, I left New York for a few days.
