ADL Head Comes Out AGAINST Free Speech at Columbia

"Republican Sens. Tom Cotton and Josh Hawley called on President Joe Biden to send the National Guard to Columbia University as pro-Palestinian demonstrations that saw over 100 people arrested last week roil the campus.

The senators issued the appeal for federal action as Monday marks the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Passover. Over the weekend, a prominent rabbi at the school urged Jewish students to leave the Upper Manhattan campus amid heated protests, and Columbia University announced on Monday that it would hold classes remotely."

The irony is you can criticise the US gov all day long and even humiliate the president, yet you can be censored and arrested to criticise a foreign country policies!!!!? No words…….

[lachillin]

Let’s be real: We live in the United States of Israel

[tjpopsit]

Those who condemn free speech can be guilty of far FAR worse.

[mdbdrrhm]

He represents a foreign government, and wants to limit Americans freedoms.

[nafisa.t]

ADL hasn't lost its mind... This was always their twisted minds.

[joemanco-nojy]

Free the American Hostages, outlaw AIPAC.

[aceq]

Condemning genocide and slaughter of children is not Antisemitic

[boodini]

ADL NEEDS TO TALK ABOUT WESTBANK RACISM!!!!

[handsuporillshoot]

America has freedom of speech and freedom of expression. This isn’t Israel, Jonathan.

[JY]

Those students are protesting to stop violence not to create violence.

[aplum]

This war is bringing out everyone's true colors.

[FFP]

ADL guy cannot participate in genocide on the ground, he deflects to cover it.

[BlackWolf_-xzbb]

Doesn't anybody remember the National Guard murdering antiwar protesters at Kent State in 1970? There's actually a CSNY song about it ffs!

[whereiswaldo]

Here is a dual Israeli citizen trying to come after the right to free speech of Americans. When will this tiny little apartheid stop impinging on what we can and cannot say in this country

[active]

One things for sure. These STUDENT PATRIOTS have every single MSM news agency on BOTH sides in full on PANIC MODE! RESPECT!

[roguefox]

The ADL are the kind of people that see Hitler in their morning cornflakes, they literally investigated a company that makes Teapots because someone thought one of their Teapots looked like Hitler (spoiler alert: it was just a Teapot)

[donaldseekins]

Imagine the absurd situation if students at Columbia were arrested and penalized for protesting against the military regime in Myanmar. Not only are the Myanmar state's human rights violations very real, but most every one in a powerful position in ther US accepts that it is a bad regime. But substitute "Israel" for "Myanmar" and the political establishment wants to crack down on opposition to the very real war crimes in Gaza and the West Bank.

[jacksondodd]

After a group of protesters start becoming violent, it is no longer a protest, and would call for a response that would include Officers or National guardsmen.

[bovinityleak]

Calling in the national guard is an atrocity if this country claims to be so great at democracy and peoples constitutional rights.

[oldnoob]

He shaved his head a little too much and cut into intelligence
