bringing violent colonizers and imperialists into your campus would reflect very poorly on you. your students would feel unsafe, as these people are literally committing genocide in Palestine. Why would you ever think this was a good idea.

NA

This is the equivalent of hosting Nazi soldiers. I’m disgusted with my school

Human Rights

The Zionists are rapists and killers. Even the ICC called their vile works a genocide. UNCC should not be allowing such vile criminals on our campus.

keep idf soldiers off our campus! these violent freaks aren't welcome here!

To stop this Zionist agenda of land stealing and killing of innocent people. Free the people of Palestine and all those that are suffering daily because of the occupation

Allowing participants of a genocide on campus violates neutrality agreements in addition to all of the negative moral implications

IDC soldiers are baby killers, rapists and the foot soldiers for the apartheid state of so-called Israel. Free Palestine, long live the resistance

Because in the last year and a half alone, IDF killed over 50000 people, among them 16000 children and displaced over 1.5 million Palestinians from their homes, before and after completely demolishing them!!!

The genocide happening in Palestine is horrific & these soldiers ahit or be hosted at a public university who collects taxpayer funding. They are criminals!

We can never reward genocider.

Human rights. Genocide isn’t something that should be supported.

Free Palestine.

IDF is committing genocide and illegal occupation. I want international law to be upheld.

I do not support war criminals on my campus!!!

There should be no tolerance for actors of a genocide on this or ANY campus.

As a Palestinian watching my family and my people experience gruesome things no one should ever have to know, bringing Idf soldiers to spread “hope” to Israel when Palestinians are the one suffering is not something that should be encouraged whatsoever. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

A public university is supporting and privileging the speech of people who actively partook in genocide, while it has suppressed the speech of those protesting the same ongoing genocide.

UNC should be a place that makes people feel safe and free to learn. Bringing soldiers or ex soldiers from a military that is commiting genocide and other war crimes is NOT acceptable.

There is no reason to have military on school campus. Name of the program is blatantly discriminatory against a political alignment

keep idf off of our campus. they’re not welcome.

As an alumni of UNCC, I'm disgusted that they would allow genocide apologists to speak at the university, much less while making light of their horrible actions by calling it the "triggered" tour
This is absolutely hideous and I'm disappointed with UNCC for even considering it

The genocide needs to end. I dont want those people on my campus.

As a 2020 UNCC graduate, it sickens me that the school I loved is complicit in the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

The students should not have to pay for security in order to get the truth out. The students would not have to bring in any speakers if the university would do their job by clamping down on a violence. I am not talking about free speech. I am talking about violence

zionist war crimes have no place on our college campuses

I am a Charlotte community member calling for the UNC-Charlotte administration to cancel the upcoming March 25th "Triggered: From Combat to Campus" event hosted by UNCC Students Supporting Israel. IOF war criminals should not be allowed on a campus where students are supposed to feel safe and receive adequate education. By allowing this, UNCC is giving combatants and war criminals a platform to spread hate and fear across campus. As a community member, I don’t feel safe allowing this event to happen in my community.

This event violates UNC-Charlotte's Institutional Neutrality Policy, as instituted in June 2023, due to its dismissal of "ensuring that all members of the University community are treated with respect, fairness and dignity," because it will actively incite emotional, physical, and spiritual harm within Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and other communities. Since May 2024, both the United Nations Human Rights Council and Amnesty International have concluded that the apartheid state of Israel is committing genocide and ethnic cleansing against Palestinians, with a death toll between 48,000 - 360,000 due to an inability of Palestinian governmental agencies to accurately record deaths as a result of mass bombing campaigns in civilian zones, blocking of food and medical aid from entering Gaza, and Israel's ongoing commitment to genocidal sexual, gender, and reproductive violence against Palestinians, as recently charged by the United Nations. Allowing IOF war criminals on UNCC’s campus can be equated to allowing Nazi war soldiers to come on a college campus. It is deplorable and I condemn the event.

By permitting Students Supporting Israel to hold this event, the University administration has taken "specific political stances on controversial issues" in direct violation of Institutional Neutrality. Students demand, for the safety of the student body and community, that the administration cancel this event and deny active-duty IDF soldiers the ability to be invited to campus as part of organizational endeavors.

Sincerely,
A concerned community member

I don’t want baby killers being praised at the same campus I attend.

I believe hosting soldiers in a controversial and ongoing conflict on campus is a major threat to the safety of UNC Charlotte students. We have already experienced violence and the loss of life on our campus due to a school shooting. Why would we celebrate or play host to violent individuals who by definition have committed acts of gun violence?
