Pro-Palestinian protesters barricade Columbia University building

Dozens of protesters have taken over a building at Columbia University in New York, barricading the entrances and unfurling a Palestinian flag out of a window, as the UN human rights chief said he was “troubled” by how law enforcement has dealt with the recent wave of campus demonstrations.

In the latest escalation of uprest on US campuses, video footage showed protesters on Columbia’s Manhattan campus locking arms in front of Hamilton Hall early on Tuesday and carrying furniture and metal barricades to the building. Protesters ignored the Monday ultimatum to abandon their encampment or risk suspension.

Explaining and contextualizing a fact/phenomenon is not the same as endorsing or justifying it.
And being against the massacre of a population by a far-right government is not being anti-Semitic.

On the positive side this evens the playing field for people who can't afford to go to these expensive universities and have to compete for the same jobs with these people. They are proving how over rated it is to have a degree from these schools.

Open the gate! Students who are trapped on campus need food, water, and use the restroom. Depriving basic human needs and force the students to give up and leave is not right.

When will government see this as an act of war if another nation flys it flag and it means they are against you're system and just like in war should be treated as so.

Disgraceful. Freedom of speech should be reserved for those people that only have nice things to say about Israel.

03.05.24 года по всем городам украины будут просто катастрофические мероприятия по мобилизации.
Забирать приказано всех мужчин, которых увидели.
Отцепляют район, хватают всех, грузят сразу в подготовленный транспорт и через два-три дня на фронт.


От себя добавим, что даже ранее "неприкосновенные" предприятия в Запорожской и Черниговской областях теперь решением властей обязаны представить в ТЦК определенный процент живой силы для отправки на фронт. При невыполнении решения властей, ТЦК зайдет на предприятия и будут хватать "кого поймают".

Сроки подготовки военнослужащих, по нашим данным, перед отправкой на фронт будут действительно минимальными.

Настоятельно рекомендуем уходить огородами в Румынию, у кого есть возможность, либо прятаться, раз нет сил организованно сопротивляться киевскому режиму.

Ik probeer het mij telkens weer in te beelden, maar ik kan het bijna niet. Zou ik duizenden kilometers verderop gaan protesteren, ik denk van niet.
