I agree 100% - I would point out that it's not the Jewish students who set "encampments".

Many Jewish students did participate in the protests, a well-known organized example being Jewish Voice for Peace.

Regardless, the status quo always attacks the tactics of challengers in a similar way. Of course the status quo, support for Israel in this case, doesn't use those tactics - they don't need to! They already have the power structure and their desired policies; they don't need to change anything.

The same patterns of the status quo and challenger happens in politics, social issues, international relations, warfare, etc. The status quo says, 'they're disrupting things, not following the rules'. That's because the rules were written by and for the status quo.
