Of the 300 Pro-Hamas Agitators Arrested at Columbia, Most Weren't Students(shocking?not!)

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) sounds the alarm that the roughly 300 pro-Hamas protestors arrested by NYPD Tuesday night at Columbia University and City College of New York may not be students— but rather part of radical terrorist organizations.

Adams said that when he became aware that the majority of the pro-terrorism protestors weren’t students but professional agitators, he promised to fight for the American “way of life” as the demonstrators continued to harass Jewish communities.

“Once I became aware of the outside agitators who were part of this operation, as Columbia mentioned in their letter and their request with the New York City Police Department, it was clear we had to take appropriate actions when our intelligence division identified those who were professionals, well trained,” Adams told CBS Mornings.

The Democrat mayor’s comments come after several reports, including one I wrote, revealing that left-wing billionaire George Soros is paying pro-Hamas agitators to draw in new protestors and terrorize college campuses nationwide.

“There were individuals on the campus who should not have been there. They were people who are professionals and we saw evidence of training,” Adams continued.

Thought so! This answers my question the other day:

"Gotta wonder... How many of the protesters are students and how many are outside agitators?"

The bet here is that many illegals from the southwest border have joined the protests.

And we all know Soros and the Dems will turn on the Pali - Antifa - BLM type rioters if Trump wins in November.

They can usually be turned on and off like a light switch. Except this time, they haven’t been able to control the Pali rioters very well.

Students are bloody sheeple. Any student in this demonstration who destroyed property should be expelled ... no diploma no credits. Those not students should be first compelled to clean up the mess they made, then 5 years mandatory in jail. (Ask Singapore what they would do!)

Uh huh, open borders and stolen elections have consequences. It’s for reasons such as this that the current regime needs to be forced from their offices and literally thrown into the streets.

While this would not surprise me if true, but it would also not surprise me if it was a big half truth to give the college/university and out for not expelling or punishing their leftist students.

Would someone please inform John Kirby?

Last I heard, poor John was (intentionally?) kept in the dark.

No one in law enforcement and no one in inelligence had told him anything about “outside agitators” taking part in any of this.

This is interesting these articles here in North America regarding protests on campus. A huge fan of free speech I don’t think these idiots should be moved because of a need for “safe” speech. What does concern me is these camp outs? Sorry, but you just can’t decide to stay over night on University grounds. It’s a public place for learning, and accommodation that is paid for (dorms).
