The Subject: The raucous pro-Hamas protests on the grounds of Columbia College.
They are going to simply put on their arrests as badges of honor at upcoming pro-Hamas protests (“Now U. get the hell out,” April 19).
Then again, I applaud the actions taken by Google, firing staff who had been answerable for invading and defacing the CEO’s workplaces.
These terminations, in contrast to the seemingly coddling of the Columbia College miscreants, can have actual penalties.

I wish to know who organized and paid for the buses which are transporting these protesters to Columbia.
Why aren’t they at an workplace constructing or at house working? Properly, the rationale they’re not is as a result of these persons are a complete drain upon civilization and supply nothing to the economic system.
All they do is dwell off no matter they’ll get from the federal government. They’re completely blind to what’s truly happening world wide.

So The Put up is placing collectively one other astroturfed wave of propaganda towards pro-Palestinian protesters.
I’m not shocked, however I feel it is very important level out that protests didn’t come out of skinny air — in contrast to the thousands and thousands of {dollars} that AIPAC feeds to America’s politicians to maintain them pro-Israel.
Greater than 13,000 kids are useless in Gaza, in keeping with UNICEF, and the Gaza well being ministry stories greater than 30,000 civilians in whole have been killed. Looks like an extreme retribution for the roughly 1,200 — a lot of whom had been off-duty IDF troopers — killed on Oct. 7.
The Israeli regime has a bloodlust for Palestinians and is keen to kill each man, lady and baby to clear Gaza for itself. And that’s why I stand with the protesters at Columbia.
They refuse to just accept the truth that our authorities continues to funnel our taxpayer {dollars} to advertise genocide.

With out regulation and order you get anarchy, which is strictly what’s taking place with these protests.
No matter occurred to acquiring permits and reserving hours? It is a free-for-all and it began when some moron threw water at a policeman.

With chants of “We’re Hamas!” and “Kill extra [Israeli] troopers!” filling the air on the campus of Columbia, one has to think about the mother and father who raised and nurtured these malevolent protesters. One thing tells me their elders drank from the identical poison properly of age-old Jew-hatred.

In Nazi Germany, universities had been stuffed with brownshirts.
And now, Columbia College has lots of of anti-Israel protesters, together with US Rep. Ilhan Omar’s daughter, masquerading as college students.

The First Modification doesn’t matter when the emotions of Zionists are harm.
Solely then is it OK to clamp down on free speech by suppressing protests, firing folks you disagree with (cough, Google) and banning folks like Nicholas Fuentes off main social media platforms.
Folks will make the facile argument that freedom of speech has its limits however, apparently, these limits start and finish when the dialogue turns to questions on Israel and its energy over the American authorities.
Then it turns into antisemitic to query our nation’s distinctive and parasitic relationship with a rustic that’s committing genocide and bombing harmless Muslims and Christians.

The newest iteration of Jew-hatred at Columbia just isn’t distinctive and is widespread in lots of faculties and universities. It’s now showing in far too many universities that use hatred of Israel as an excuse to articulate hatred of all Jews.
We’re seeing quite a few felony acts by pro-Hamas college students and school which are being ignored by regulation enforcement in Democratic cities.
