Hundreds of anti-Israel protesters were arrested at college campuses across the US on Saturday after fed-up administrators said “enough is enough.”

Officials at Columbia University, meanwhile, are continuing to dither — allowing a Gaza Solidarity Encampment to remain and dropping a deadline to remove it while they negotiate with student leaders who are holding the campus hostage.

Over 200 protesters at colleges including Northeastern University in Boston, Arizona State University in Tempe, Indiana University in Bloomington and Washington University in St. Louis were arrested Saturday.

Revoke the visas of foreign students. That’s the reason Columbia University needs to go ahead and arrest the protestors.

Worship Israel = okay. Protest against Israel = not okay.

Wow. I disable all assistant / speech command stuff on phone, car but I guess some people do like to dictate. I hate it

Yeah, I read you loud and clear. Only these scum are not "protesting Israel", they're calling for the death of Jews. After 1200 innocent Israelis were murdered and another 240 taken hostage, most of whom are probably dead by now. That OK with you, too?

Columbia president would have to have integrity and courage to decide to stand up for law and equal responsibility for obeying the university’s rules.

Sorry, fresh out.

Florida and Governor DeSantis have solved this problem.

Sure a couple of people are going to show-out. Let them. Then separate them from polite society.

Perhaps Corbin Dallas should negotiate with the student leaders.

Columbia: Kill the jews.....or....let them live for some unexplainable reason. Let’s flip a coin.

In the 60s the protesters were against what was probably an unjust war. Now the protesters now are backing a group of terrorists that started an unjust war.

“Yeah, I read you loud and clear. Only these scum are not “protesting Israel”, they’re calling for the death of Jews.”

Yep, no matter how much the anti-semites try to ‘repackage’ it, the chant: “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free” only means ONE THING to the protesters - no more Jews.

There’s PLENTY of other things that the protesters can call for (even if they don’t mean it) such as “Two State Solution Now” - which isn’t as bad, as it means that Israel can hang around for another 10 years or so, until the second state is fully armed and thus ready to finish the job.

Or they can call for the Palestinians to GIVE UP on driving out The Jew...but they never seem to get around to that...

Soros is funding this. He is catering food, signage and PAYING these fools to behave badly.

I say STOP the catering and signage that come onto campus to support this nonsense. Not much you can do abt paying these brats but when kids get hungry and have no signs the yelling becomes all they have to SPEAK THEIR TRUTH.
