On the first night of Passover, the singsong of the Four Questions echoed from Jewish homes and gatherings around the world, including from unlikely, contested spaces: the center of pro-Palestinian protests at Columbia and other universities where demonstrations are taking place.
As evening fell over Columbia’s tent encampment on Monday, about 100 students and faculty gathered in a circle around a blue tarp heaped with boxes of matzo and food they had prepared in a kosher kitchen. Some students wore kaffiyehs, the traditional Palestinian scarf, while others wore Jewish skullcaps. They distributed handmade Haggadahs — prayer books for the Passover holiday — and read prayers in Hebrew, keeping to the traditional order.
But there were also changes and additions, like a watermelon on the Seder plate to represent the flag of Palestine. There were repeated references to the suffering of the Palestinian people and the need to ensure their liberation. There was grape juice instead of wine to respect the alcohol-free encampment, which was started last Wednesday and, despite a police crackdown last week, was stretching into its sixth day.

At other pro-Palestinian encampments and protests that have cropped up this week, similar scenes played out. Some protest organizers and participants are anti-Zionist Jewish students, and at Columbia, roughly 15 of the students who have been suspended for their involvement in the encampment are Jewish, organizers said.
...Surrounding the Seder, students held banners that read, “Our Seder plates are empty stop starving Gaza” and “Another Jew for a free Palestine.”
...“Tonight, we stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, not in spite of our Judaism, but because of it,” Miriam Levine, a 22-year-old Yale student who helped organize the Seder, told the crowd through a microphone. “Tonight we proclaim that our liberation is intertwined.”

There were multiple Canaanite tribes
You know what the endonym (what they called themselves) of the Phoenicians was? They called themselves Canaanites

Wow. That gives one pause in reflection. Very sobering.
In 1939 Darwin was a prophet who was showing man how to evolve to a new god man. It still exists today in liberalism who evolve to Communism.
These kids virtue grandstand to show their evolution.
NYT = All Lies/Propaganda 24/7
It is known Globally.
The Truth is simply not to be found in the NYT!
Hopefully, they’ll get what they clamor for.
Nor is it to be found in most of the Holy Korans sold in the USA.
If the idiot Jewish "students" would bother to read a true translation their opinion might change.
This needs to be required reading in all high schools and colleges.
Every Jew and every American, well for that matter, every European needs to read a true translation of the Holy Quran or Koran.
Then they might understand why this is happening and why it will never stop happening. IMHO these are probably the most accurate translations, and they are FREE.
So far it has been there for over 30 years.
Kapos.
