Approximately 300 were arrested overnight at CCNY and Columbia after the NYPD was called on to clear out anti-Israel protesters who had been occupying the campuses.

Police officers of the New York Police Department have restored order on the CUNY City College of New York campus after it had been overrun by anti-Israel protesters.

CUNY officials said they asked the New York Police Department for assistance in clearing protesters, including a "large crowd" of people who had marched from Columbia University to City College.

Approximately 300 were arrested overnight at CCNY and Columbia after the NYPD was called on to clear out anti-Israel protesters who had been occupying the campuses. According to numbers given to NBC News by the NYPD, police arrested 230 people at Columbia, and the rest were arrested at CCNY.

After clearing out protesters from CCNY, police officers tore down a Palestinian flag hung on a flagpole on campus and replaced it with an American flag.

“An incredible scene and proud moment as we have assisted City College NY in restoring order on campus, culminating in raising Old Glory once again on their campus flagpole,” said NYPD Deputy Commissioner Kaz Daughtry.

Reminds me of video of our troops taking down enemy flags during WW2 and replacing them with the stars & stripes. Definitely getting Mount Suribachi-type vibes from that vid.

YAY!
It is about time the police cleared out the pro-ArabTerrorist, anti-American slime. A great picture to see the Fakestinian gangster banners pulled down and the good old USA Stars and Stripes put back up where they belong.

AFAIAC, the Fakestinian and communist and Nazi “demostrators” can all be dropped on their beloved Iranian nuclear bomb manufacturing factories (dropped from at least 10,000 feet altitude).

Not me. Raising the flag there is a disgusting symbol of how the cucks in the New York City police department bailed out the Communists at the college, the same Communists who sent rioters against cops under the guise of "defund the police".

The children-cops need to grow up and leave.

Agree.

And, as frogjerk mentioned ... 9/11 and firefighters vibes, too.

The US flag was also raised again on the UNC Chapel Hill campus and a lot of students sang the national anthem as they watched.

I hope any found to be on student visa have those revoked, are deported, put on a terrorist watchlist and denied reentry into the country.

No one from another country should be allowed to come here and protest in favor of their home country and raise that flag above a building on US soil. And no foreign flag should ever be allowed to stand in the halls of Congress unless it is to celebrate a state visit of some sort. Are you listening Mr. Johnson and Ms. Talib?

"Some of them side with the PROpals. So, have the arrestees been released yet with no bail required?"

Some of them in WWII, mostly half and quarter Jews rejected their Jewish ancestry, and sided with Hitler, serving in the Wehrmacht. And no doubt, those terrorists arrested at Columbia and CCNY are already back out on the street.

You’ll notice that these punks never seem to want to do this in front of a group of veterans

It was CCNY on W 137th St. It has a campus, a nice one. Hunter is in midtown.
