‘Squad’ members descend on Columbia encampment, offer 'support' for anti-Israel agitators
Fox News ^ | 4/26/24 | Kyle Morris

New York Democratic Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jamaal Bowman, both members of "The Squad," were seen Friday mingling with anti-Israel agitators at Columbia University, where "support" was offered to those in the encampment established to protest the Israeli military's actions in Gaza.

In one video shared on social media, a smiling Ocasio-Cortez is shown speaking with those inside the encampment and offering her "support" for those who have become engaged in the protest.

Photographs of Bowman also circulated on social media, showing the cheerful New York Democrat listening to those who were taking part in the encampment protest. His appearance at the school came after he reportedly attended a Thursday evening Biden campaign fundraiser in Westchester County, where he was recognized for his attendance by the president.

The visits by Ocasio-Cortez and Bowman to Columbia's campus in New York City came one day after Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar – another prominent member of the "The Squad" – traveled to the school to show her support for the students who are taking part in a group of encampments on the main lawn in protest of Israel's war against Hamas.

Omar was joined in her visit to the school by her daughter, Isra Hirsi, who was suspended last week from Barnard College for her involvement in anti-Israel demonstrations on Columbia's campus.

The appearances by the three progressive "Squad" Democrats come as several colleges and universities around the United States brace for what is yet to come as more and more anti-Israel protests sweep the nation.

Q. What’s the difference between Hamas and a Hamas supporter?
A. Hamas butchers Jews. Hamas supporters don’t mind if Hamas butchers Jews.

Not a whole lot of difference, eh?

I think these protestors should go to Gaza and JOIN HAMAS if they're so passionate for the cause.

The IDF will make short work of these losers.

Hanoi Jane Fonda went to offer aid and comfort to the Vietnamese shooting Americans, maiming them and keeping them in inhumane POW conditions including routine torture.

If they and we meet in the concentration camps after November, 2024 the Squad may arrogantly view us lined up in captivity.

Let’s make that NOT happen.

"Throughout history, protests were co-opted and made to look bad so police and public leaders would shut them down

Similar to what happened on January 6 except that no innocent females were murdered by police.

Is anyone else thinking this is happening at so many schools that it’s a larger organized campaign?

How many of these protesters attend school at Columbia? Someone needs to wade in and find out.
