Pro-Palestinian and anti-Israeli protesters are out of control at so-called “elite” universities across the country. Described as “horrific” scenes of anti-Semitism, Jewish students were told to go home and learn remotely at Columbia University, while a female Jewish student was stabbed in the eye at Yale.
Yale victim, Sophomore Sahar Tartak, told the Jerusalem Post that while covering the demonstration for the Yale Free Press, several individuals pushed and blocked the movements of her and a colleague before the alleged assault took place.
Tartak, who was dressed in Hasidic attire, said that she reported the battery to campus police, but she was unaware if they took any action apart from calling an ambulance for her. The police reportedly refused her requests to disband the gathering.
At Columbia over the weekend, Pro-Palestinian protesters were advocating for Hamas terrorism against Israel, yelling “Burn Tel Aviv to the ground!” as well as other pro-violence slogans.
“We say justice, you say how? Burn Tel Aviv to the ground!,” protesters shouted Saturday night, according to footage posted by Israel War Room.
“Hamas, we love you! We support your rockets, too!” and “Red, black, green, and white, we support Hamas’ fight!” were also chanted.
“It is right to rebel, Al-Qassam, give them hell!,” they said.
The Orthodox Rabbi at Columbia/Barnard urged over 290+ Jewish students Sunday morning to go home until the campus unrest settles down, according to a What’sApp message obtained by CNN anchor Jake Tapper.
National Review reports that New York City police arrested 108 anti-Israel activists on Thursday after the university’s president asked law enforcement to step in and break up the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment.” Dozens of protester tents occupied campus for over 24 hours, which the university deemed a safety concern and a violation of university policies.
