GUPS (the General Union of Palestinian Students) have set up a mock wall behind their stall. In front of it they distribute literature as a black and white set of images shine onto a sheet. Out of spare cardboard they create machine guns, decorated with stars of David and the words “Born to Kill”. They aim these at passing students, apparently targeting those who look “obviously Jewish”… They explained that they were "setting up a checkpoint" and were "pointing the guns at people just like Israeli soldiers do".
This blog (by Zeev Barkan) is dedicated to the Star of David, its history, its various meanings and usages in different cultures. It includes thousands of pictures of Star of David, six-pointed stars, hexagrams, Solomon's Seals, Magen Davids and yellow badges,and served as a resource for three books and four art exhibitions.

Sorry to respond so late, but I think pro-Israeli students on those campuses should respond in kind. They should wear an obviously drawn paper explosive belt in a public area (perhaps next to the "check points") and say "Boom!" loudly once in a while.
