Anti-Israel Activists at Columbia Chain Themselves to Gate as Prospective Students Tour Campus
Anti-Israel activist students at Columbia University chained themselves to the school gate, demanding the release of Mahmoud Khalil and calling for an ‘intifada revolution’ as prospective students toured the campus. Some people have suggested that this exact scenario is what led to the enrollment crisis at Emerson College.
This idiocy continues at Columbia despite the best efforts of the Trump administration to persuade the school that it’s in its best interests to get a handle on it.
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
Welcome to Columbia: Keffiyeh-Clad Activists Chain Themselves to Campus Gate, Call for ‘Intifada’Several Columbia University student activists chained themselves to a school gate Wednesday afternoon, chanting “globalize the intifada” as prospective students walked by.The four unmasked protesters secured to the St. Paul’s Chapel gate, which serves as a campus entrance, were joined by additional students behind them, wearing masks and holding signs that read “Pigs aren’t kosher,” “Israel bombs, Columbia pays,” and “ICE off campus.” The group assembled to demand the names of the trustees who “collaborated” with the Trump administration, resulting in the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil.As a group of prospective students and their families passed by, the anti-Israel agitators chanted, “There is only one solution, intifada revolution,” and “Intifada, intifada, globalize the intifada.”Columbia’s Public Safety removed the chains after several hours and escorted the activists through the gate, where they continued their protest.Wednesday’s events unfolded amid Columbia’s ongoing battle to curb rampant campus anti-Semitism, a crisis that has destabilized its leadership and triggered a $430 million loss in federal funding.
How do you think this looks to prospective students and parents?
In related news, a student at the school was just arrested for throwing an unlit Molotov Cocktail from a dorm window.
