On US campus protest, the brutalisation of Gaza, and whether this is an age of war.Join us: patreon.com/bungacastBunga boys Alex, George and Phil debate the matter of the day. We ask:

• Is the police repression and associated censorship (the anti-semitism bill) a reflection of the fact the content of the protest unsettles the establishment? Why?

• Why is the Left breaking with Biden and the Dems over this and not before?

• How do these student protests compare to BLM? And how do they compare to those of the late 60s and Vietnam?

• What should those in Western countries do in response to Israel’s war?

• Is the Palestinian struggle dead?

• What are the risks of regional war? And does Israel's assault on Gaza presage a new era of warfare?
