Several hundred NYPD cops stormed onto Columbia University’s campus on Tuesday night to oust a pro-terror mob that illegally took over an academic building amid ongoing anti-Israel protests on campus...
Shortly before entering the Morningside Heights campus at 9:13 p.m., about 100 cops from the NYPD’s Emergency Service Unit packed into buses and headed to Columbia in preparation for the university’s call for help, sources told The Post.
...
Twenty minutes later, Columbia University issued a shelter-in-place for students over “heightened activity” at the Morningside campus — and warned that those who do not abide will be hit with “disciplinary action.”
The university’s Chapter of the American Association of University Professors issued a scathing statement once the officers began mobilizing, accusing Columbia’s administration of ignoring the faculty’s offers to “defuse the situation.”...
NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban confirmed earlier Tuesday that the department would swoop in if needed, as it had done two weeks earlier when student protesters first set up its mini tent city.
“Once the university acts for our help, the NYPD will be there ready to assist them,” Caban emphasized.
Those arrested inside Hamilton Hall would be charged with third-degree burglary, criminal mischief and trespassing, police officials said.

Meanwhile, NYPD brass revealed Tuesday that the mob of masked agitators who smashed their way into Hamilton Hall in the middle of the night included “professional outside agitators” not affiliated with Columbia or the pro-Palestinian cause...

What took them so long?
Biden knows how bad this looks for him politically so he wants this to end to save his ass
“What took them so long?”
They had to wait for Florida to show them how it is done.
The faculty needs to be thrown in jail too, then fired.
Here’s hoping they all get arrested and later get a bill for the damage. As if. We all know that the taxpayers and insurance companies are going to be gouged with it.
Good luck. Next one up is just a couple months away in Chicago.
anti-Israeli = proHamas
Islamists = Muslims in America
With the corrupt DAs and corrupt judges and corrupt prosecutors and corrupt leaders in NYC and State, those ‘protesters’ will be let out with a warning to behave, and they’ll be right back at the university for more rounds of law-breaking and taking over the campus(es). Jihadists and terrorists, will never behave, and their goals matter more than obeying the law.
Summer is coming up shortly so they'll have to wait until fall.
The Israel issue will divide most people. It’s dividing “Christians” all over the place - especially here on FR.
Folks better choose carefully.
Genesis 12:3
I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
Jeremiah 12:3
And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.

They are terrorists.
The NYPD has a budget of 6 billion and 40,000+ employees. They sent 100 officers.
In comparison, the FBI has a budget of 10 billion+ and 36,000 or so employees they will admit to having.
Freegards
organized crime, hit them with RICO charges
Suppose Donald Trump wins, there will be riots in every American city.
About time the Left felt the Deep State’s teeth. Maybe they will start to realize they are just useful idiots in the Revolution they are trying to bring about.
Right. But no MAGA Americans involved. Nothing to worry about.
