Saying things? It is far worse than that.

That’s what happens when Trump takes over.

Good grief. It is happening NOW, Skippy. NOW - with Biden in charge.
Why do you feel the need to bring Trump into every post?

+1. This is Biden's America.

Bibi says it and the loyalists to push and repeat it.

Netanyahu likens US campus encampments by ‘antisemitic mobs’ to 1930s Nazi Germany
“Antisemitic mobs have taken over leading universities. They call for the annihilation of Israel, they attack Jewish students, they attack Jewish faculty,” Netanyahu charged in his statement, which likened the scenes to those that preceded the Holocaust in Nazi Germany.
This is reminiscent of what happened in German universities in the 1930s. It’s unconscionable. It has to be stopped. It has to be condemned unequivocally,” the Israeli premier said.

“But that’s not what happened,” he added. “When you listen to them, they say not only ‘Death to Israel’ and ‘Death to the Jews,’ but also ‘Death to America.'”

If only Netanyahu had some credibility. Another day another few lies- hospital bombing in the first week of the war, UNRWA filled with terrorists approved by Israel’s “intelligence” agencies, Hamas rapes, babies in ovens, wanting to free the hostages, etc, etc

“The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over”

I mean, this video shows an apparently Jewish student seeking to instigate conflict with protesters. He’s apparently seeking to interfere with their protest, not to merely “move freely around his campus”. In fact, it’s clearly a publicity stunt and he doubles down by mocking them as he threatens the protesters and their future job prospects.

They are not interfering with his access to education - he’s interfering with their right to free assembly and free speech. He’s not campus police. How does this video cast him as a victim?

The a-hole in that video is clearly the Jewish student and there’s not even a close race for first place.

As for Netantahu’s comments, none of the protesters in the video are saying anything of the sort re: Jewish students, Israel or America.

I’m sure there are protests that are going further, but this UCLA video is an example that doesn’t help the Islamophobic / pro-Israel cause AT ALL.

Yes. Bibi whistle calling ZioNazis that have infiltrated every inch of public life in this country. Here they are, paid for and bussed in ZioNazis shouting vile antisemetism at students.

They feel liberated, they can now drop the mask and be their fascist selves.

The Wife of Sami Al-Arian, a Palestinian Political Activist who Pled Guilt in 2006 to Conspiracy to provide Services to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad for which he was Sentenced to 57 Months in Prison then later Deported to Turkey, is in Attendance of the Pro-Hamas Encampment at Columbia University in New York City.

These students are such useful idiots. Creme de la crud.

What exactly does she want to convey by shouting that?

I saw the full video: police officers were arresting someone and she came from behind to try to stop them, insulting them repeatedly and touching one officer. Then she threw an epic over dramatic tantrum and resisted arrest. She thinks that being a professor means she should be given a pass to break the law.

This is a very biased description. First of all, people were being arrested for no apparent reason or rather for reasons like simply questioning why protestors were being arrested. The professor came along and shouted "what are you doing" or something to that effect at the police officer who was very roughly arresting someone else. She seems to have reached out and very lightly touched him. AT which point , the police officer came at her very aggressively and eventually tossed her to the ground . If she tried to stop them, it was with words. There was no epic tantrum or resisting arrest.

Eww get their hands off that woman

White people in this country are learning that the police are thugs whose sole job is to protect the interests of a small power class. They will let your babies be slauterghtered, your nerdy college kid get a concussion and body slam a slight, middle aged woman.

At UCON they body slammed and dislocated the shoulder of a student with visible disability.

The good news is a lot of universities will be losing their presidents and the disinvestment movement will win in the end.

Crack is whack.

I don't like the body slamming at all. At the same time, even I know you don't touch an armed officer in the middle of a potential riot. Bear witness, film, but don't reach out and touch the officer in the middle of the fray. I disagree with the tenor of these protests, not the right to protest. I'm sorry to see the professors head hit the concrete - that's ridiculous. She also should have known better than to wade in with some kind of professors prerogative. It all sucks!

You know that the sleaze bags agitating on campus are paid, too, right? And that there are many many more of them?

Why do protests happen so often at college campuses and so infrequently elsewhere? Maybe the college kids have too much time on their hands.

It’s a social, extracurricular activity. It’s fun to be outraged about something at that age and pretend like your voice matters.

Their illegal encampment is on grounds where all students - regardless of their race or ethnicity - should be able to access.
The protesters are interfering with HIS right to free assembly and free speech.
This student is simply demonstrating the illegality of this encampment. And, the administration is "negotiating" with these toddlers.
Disgraceful.

The one at Columbia had a lot of outside help. The first tents erected were uniform in style and color. Purchased at once as a lot. Their leader who has posted that all Zionists should be executed is a black gay boy whose pronouns are “they/them.” He should get the opportunity to live under Hamas.

Willing to bet that most of the protesters are either very wealthy (spoiled brats who know mom and dad will catch them if they fall) or very poor (full ride). The student who was just banned from the Columbia campus for repeatedly talking about killing Zionists is from Dorchester in Boston (per capita income in the mid 20k).

What do you mean, under Hamas? Michigan will do:
