It is easy to become demoralized as we watch our college campuses get hijacked by a radical extremist movement that celebrates Hamas, calls for intifada, and chants of death to America and Israel. It seems as if an entire generation of young Americans have been brainwashed to despise their own country. It’s hard to argue with that point when only 23% of those under 30 believe patriotism is important and 18% are proud to be an American.
However, despite the appalling scenes that have captivated the country for the last two weeks, there is good news. Amidst the campus chaos, a group of young Americans stood up to defend the flag and exhibited a vital cardinal virtue that is often lacking nowadays – Courage.
At the University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill, an anti-American/anti-Israeli mob set its sights on Old Glory – ripping it down to replace it with the Palestinian flag. This desecration is an insult to every American, especially those who have served in our military and paid the ultimate sacrifice. However, the UNC-Chapel Hill Pi Kappa Phi fraternity refused to accept this atrocity.
