TL;DR Summary

Israel's satirical TV show "Eretz Nehederet" parodied pro-Palestinian protests on American college campuses, portraying activists as clueless Hamas sympathizers. The sketch mocked the progressive activists at a fictional "Columbia Unisemity," with one student proudly supporting Hamas and another claiming to be "racist fluid." The show also criticized the BBC for its coverage of an explosion in Gaza, accusing it of regurgitating Hamas propaganda. Hostility towards Israel has increased on university campuses since Hamas' attack in October, leading to incidents of antisemitism and criticism of universities for failing to respond adequately.
