Hey, what happened to all the Gaza protesters? [View all]

I haven't seen a bunch of unruly college kids and malcontents disappear this fast since hearing "Everyone get out! The cops are here!" back in the day at some party in the dorms.

Seriously, where the eff did these people (and their tents) all go? Is this a group we'll only hear from again come the next election? And, what will be the divisive "cause" they're fighting for then?
