Risking suspension, expulsion and even arrest, US students have spent the last few weeks protesting against Israel's war on Gaza - which has so far killed more than 34,000 Palestinians, and reduced homes, hospitals and schools to rubble - and calling for their schools to financially divest from weapons manufacturing companies who supply the Israeli military.
