The recent surge in protest activities on U.S. university campuses, often met with forceful police response and media scrutiny, has garnered attention. While overseas campus protests have been sporadic and smaller, signs of potential spread have emerged. The prominence of the protests in the U.S. can be attributed to the partisan political atmosphere, the 'ovation model', and the particular legal and political context in the country. The conflict in Gaza has provided a potent issue for Republicans, who have targeted universities as hotbeds of leftist radicalism. This political backdrop has amplified and escalated the protest movements on American campuses. In contrast, protests and antisemitism on campuses in other countries have not sparked the same level of political tension or media attention. The effectiveness of nonviolent protests often depends on the level of drama they generate, and now that the momentum has started in the U.S., it may impact the global scenario.
