Columbia janitor reveals secret plans left behind by anti-Israel protesters who took over Hamilton Hall armed with zip ties, chains
NY Post ^ | 10 May A.D. 2024 | Matthew Sedacca

Columbia University janitors were gripped with “sheer terror” as a mob of violent anti-Israel protesters stormed Hamilton Hall and took over the building on April 30 — armed with hand-drawn floor plans and supply lists, says a longtime custodian for the Ivy League university.

As dozens of rioters busted through glass and barricaded the entrances to occupy the historic university building, four janitors found themselves trapped inside and afraid, Henry Clemente, a head custodian for Columbia, told The Post.

“If you have masked people running through the building with zip ties and chains, you don’t know what they’re going to do — if they’re going to take you hostage, if you’re going to be tortured, if you’re going to be made an example,” Clemente said.

Afterward, as he and his colleagues started to clean up the hall after NYPD cops busted up the occupation, Clemente discovered secret plans left behind by the highly organized rioters.

These included hand-drawn floor plans and supply lists noting locations of barricading equipment; a “task list” with items including setting up a pulley system and “security shifts” and even a schedule listing the times of the Muslim call to prayer.

The documents show that the protesters had insider knowledge of the campus and plotted the takeover in advance, he said.

“I’ve been working there a long time, so we know where the tunnels are, but they mapped everything out,” said Clemente, who has worked at Columbia for 17 years.

“They had a food room, a prayer room, the smoking room…they were in there for the long haul.”

...

“We have a lot of enemies in the world, like Russia, and China,” he said.

...

Mayor Adams and NYPD officials have said outside agitators were behind planning the university protests.

Russia is a state sponsor of proxy wars, sabotage, and terrorism - unchanged since Lenin gained power.

Russia MUST CEASE AND DESIST its proxy wars and support for terrorists such as Iran, Hezbolah, HAMAS, college students that demand the destruction of limited government, college students that demand the destruction of Israel - and other hostile works fomented by Moscow and Putin's designs to disrupt the lives and livelihoods of people opposed to RUSSIAN ANNEX-PLOITATION.

“These included hand-drawn floor plans”

Why bother when you can find a nice scaled building map at every single exit?

These are American born terrorists on the payroll of the dimrat party.
Act Blue
Occupy Wall Street
Antifa
Code Pink

The dims used to have the KKK in their back pocket. The KKK became an embarassment to the dims, so now the have communist revolutionaries that are willing to fight and protest for the demrat party’s goals.

“Outside agitators” is a mo appropriate term for what “community organizer” call themselves.

Sheer, unadulterated, demonic evil for both the plans and those supporting them.
