White House Responds to Anti-Israel Protests at Columbia University: ‘Antisemitic, Unconscionable, Dangerous’
Breitbart ^ | 04/21/2024 | ELIZABETH WEIBEL

The White House issued a statement in response to the ongoing anti-Israel protests and encampment taking place at Columbia University, describing them as being, “Antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous.”

White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates issued a statement on Sunday acknowledging that American citizens have the “right to peaceful protest,” while adding that “calls for violence and physical intimidation” against the Jewish community are unacceptable.

In his statement, Bates said:

While every American has the right to peaceful protest, calls for violence and physical intimidation targeting Jewish students and the Jewish community are blatantly Antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous – they have absolutely no place on any college campus, or anywhere in the United States of America. And echoing the rhetoric of terrorist organizations especially in the wake of the worst massacre committed against the Jewish people since the Holocaust, is despicable. We condemn these statements in the strongest terms.

How is it legal for these rioters to prevent Jewish students and professors from entering schools and living their lives in peace? What did Eisenhower and later Kennedy do when similar mobs prevented students from entering schools?

The “White House” is yet again playing BOTH sides of the street. The White House needs and emergency supply of Chap Stick for all the Ass Kissing they are doing.

First they kiss Israel’s ass, then Hamas’s, ass, wash rinse repeat!

Next story will be the White House has whiplash and a permanent kissing pucker!

FJB and the White House!!!

White House knows thee protests will only hurt them, not Trump, so they are trying to walk the fine line and shut them down thru their college president friends.

Antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous.

Unless, of course, the protestors are voting for Biden.

And not one word of that is true.
They just need the optics to look good,
They really don’t disagree with anything those pathetic losers are saying.

Uh-oh. Wait until the University of Michigan and the University of Minnesota mobs get after them. The White House will turn on a dime.

Joe has Democrats in office that are Anti-Semitic like these protestors and he says nothing about them. In fact Anti-semitism is a major part of the Democrat base.

Remember, the Biden FBI accused the Right of this behavior. Call it a crisis. Yet it is the Progressive Left that is fueling anti-semitism, hate, and terrorism nationwide, and that Left group is the base of the Democrat Party. It’s ironic that the Democrats, Progressive Leftism, and Antifa is the greatest threat to American Democracy. But meanwhile Biden and the Lefties accuse the Right of being anti-Democracy........ Always accuse your enemies of the things you are doing yourself.

Direct quote was:

Might as well start treating the Ivies as occupied territory, because that’s what they are.
