Last weekend, Ally was kicked out of a family Shabbat dinner. Ally is 21 years old and from New York.
"My dad is a staunch Zionist. He said, 'You better not f***ing have gone to that protest.' "
Ally has gone to many protests.
"He was like, 'I don't want to have you in my house right now. You are not welcome at this dinner table,' " Ally said.
Ally, who requested anonymity due to ongoing harassment, has family in Israel. Some are currently in the Israel Defense Forces.

I have no words to say about the war between to Israel and Hamas.. I don’t think the American who chose to live there shouldn’t blame the United States for them get catch up in the wrong place at the wrong time and they should appreciate the the help they are doing to get out and the people from there living ie the US and other Country shouldn’t be allowed to protest against because or the war..it almost asking for them to go stop the war that they never started.. but yet some are retaliate against them by looting, burning, stealing and killing in the country that let them live in..it is ashamed how they are action and care less who see them..
