But Datt said no illegal protests were occurring, so Trump is clearly overreaching.
Columbia U and Barnard College are likely the epicenters of the anti-Israel movement b/c of a radicalized faculty and NYC’s large Jewish population.
Genocidal chants just aren’t as much fun if there aren’t any real live Jews around to intimidate. Ditto UCLA and Tulane, 20% Jewish pop.
He asked for evidence the other day of illegal protests. It was provided, and, as is his MO, he didn’t comment. Anything that makes the Left look bad, he can’t deal I’m afraid.
He does this quite often. To avoid this, he will lurk the thread to dissect a sentence someone says.
It's actually a clever tactic.
I said what now?
Legal protests don't have to be tasteful.
I've asked several times what illegal protests were happening. No answers.
Of course you would.
It won't stick, but you can keep that warm, fuzzy feeling until the next news cycle gives you a new chubby.
UCLA suspends two pro-Palestinian student groups after protest at UC regent's home
UCLA suspended two Pro-Palestinian student groups Wednesday for allegedly vandalizing the Brentwood home of a UC regent and well-known Hollywood agent.

Okay, no firewall here. Were there arrests for trespassing? Because it seems UCLA didn't allow these groups to continue protesting, but they weren't arrested for the content of their protests.
You haven't been right on this yet.
You couldn't name a single one. You still can't articulate what the legal justification for it is. All you care about is p3ning libs, and you're furious that they're not kissing the ring.
Barricading Jewish students in the library is beyond bad taste. Columbia
I posted a YouTube clip of Jewish students denied entry to their classes, library, etc at UCLA. Google it. Civil rights violation.
This has happened several other places as well. As Mac said, you might want to expand your news gallery if this is truly the first time you’ve heard about this.
This week at Barnard College, they’ve occupied the library and refuse to leave.
Last I checked, libraries were for studying and checking out books.
Go Back to Poland and From the River to the Sea are far beyond “criticizing what Israel is doing”. When Israel’s war is the only one they care about, that could be easily seen as antisemitic regardless of how incendiary their rhetoric is or isn’t.
Signs like “Hitler was right” are not criticism of Israel’s policies.
These same lunatics were out in the streets en masse on Oct 8, before Israel even responded. They weren’t protesting; they were celebrating.
I guess you also have an explanation as to why several Ivy League Presidents resigned last year because the protests were so legal and above board.
Tulane closes 3 buildings after pro-Palestinian protesters set up encampment
A portion of Tulane University’s campus is closed after roughly 200 people protesting Israel’s war in Gaza set up a tent encampment across from Audubon Park.

How far we have come from Charlottesville being a clear sign of widespread antisemitism, to protests directly aimed at Jewish students not being antisemitism. The Jews went from oppressed to the oppressors in the blink of an eye with the left. A few dozen hillbillies chanting the Jews will not replace us was so shocking it forced the potato to run for President. But actual jews being assaulted, harassed and forced to lock themselves into buildings until the angry jew hating mob was gone, just protests.
A spokesperson? Just any ol’ spokesperson? Who?
This is not me nitpicking a sentence; this is you being a vague hack with a Napoleon Complex.

“Jews will not replace us” vs Israel-should-touch-some-grass 🙄
Jews are a people. Israel is a country. Criticism of one is not inherent criticism of the other. The local ACLU-ish lawyer defending Columbia is a Lieberman. There are very, very prominent Jewish people who are highly critical of Israeli policy and action.
At the rate y’all are going, intramural wrestling at a private Jewish school will soon be labeled antisemitic because a Jew will be losing regardless.
So why did the protesters deliberately focus their anger at Jewish students? Why, immediately after October, 7th, before any retaliation from Israel were swastikas being painted over pictures of Israelis being held hostage by hamas? You loons were calling people who criticized George Soros, antisemitic. Now, just like every other accusation you guys project onto the right, you have no ground to stand on when it comes to what is or isn't antisemitism. You'll just change the definition to fit whatever narrative you need it to at any particular moment.
As explained countless times before, these protests are bastions of Jew hatred that address no Israeli policies and primarily exist to chant antisemitic slurs.
Swastikas, Go Back to Poland, and From the River to the Sea address their fantasies of a Jew free world and have little to do with the current conflict.
Why were they chanting for a Ceasefire before Israel even began its offensive against Hamas?
Does Israel not have a right to defend itself when war is thrust upon it?
We’ve given you example after example of Jewish students harassed and bullied yet you still continue to argue that the protests are mere criticism of “Israeli policies”.
You ask for evidence, it’s provided, and yet you continue to double down Bizarre
Of course, there are a lot of Jews on the Left who are scared of standing up for Israel. The Left doesn’t tolerate dissent
This is the first I've heard of it. I condemn both of those examples of "protest," just like I condemn certain rhetoric the right has latched onto from BLM protests. I am skeptical of how representative those inexcusable acts/chants are of the entire group, particularly as manipulated by conservative media and re-bleated by conservatives like those on this board.
Criticism of George Soros that is antisemitic has been criticized as antisemitic. That does not mean he is above all criticism. (I should add, I am speaking for myself here. I do not doubt that respectful criticism of Soros has been labeled antisemitic by some.)
Uh, huh, so we're nothing but loons, every allegation from the left is invalid, and we have no ground to stand on at all.
Come on, @GhostOf301 . I expect this kind of weak, lazy absolutism from @Mac9192 and @KDSTONE . You are capable of better.I hear your criticism about changing definitions and raise you complexities and context, just like with your crap comparison of the Charlottesville abhorrence and protests critical of Israel.
"Countless times before"? Yeah, no.
Hyperlinks are your friend.
You know, you can reply to a single quote once, or even reply to multiple posts in a single post. Just sayin'...
I have not seen example after example. Receipts? I have no categorized these protests as any single, monolithic thing. I expanded on that in my latest reply to @GhostOf301 . It would be a waste to repeat it to you.
Ah, so Jews on the right are courageous and Jews on the left are scared. Tell me about the entire number of GOP votes against all of President Trump's cabinet nominees combined before you accuse the left of not tolerating dissent. GTMLO with that basic betty bullcrap.

If I were at a right wing rally and a small but vocal minority starting chanting “Fk the N—“ I would leave immediately. It seems to be much more pervasive at these protests than the example I offered, however. If the rest of the people at these “protests” dont leave when they see and hear genocidal signs and chants, they’re either mentally challenged or complicit or both.
The Left continues to downplay at best, deny altogether at worst how antisemitic these “protests” are. You’re predictably falling right in line.
Speaking of rent free, you can’t seem to keep from the personal attacks on Mac and me. A tell tale sign someone’s losing an argument

You don’t find it odd that none of these SJW give a rat’s ass about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine or the genocide in Sudan?

The bloody handprints motif commemorates the slaughter of two Jews by Palestinian “civilians” in 2000. Pins of bloody handprints celebrating the “resistance” are worn by Jew haters like Mark Ruffalo, who knows damn well what it means.
UCLA suspends Students for Justice in Palestine after vandalism at UC regent's home
UCLA suspended two pro-Palestinian campus groups after a protest at a UC regent's home, which was vandalized. Chancellor Julio Frenk said students violated conduct rules. The groups said they were undeterred.www.latimes.com
Not sure what you’re referring to. Only thing I’ve mentioned was the proposed cuts at Columbia University. Which I think you denied.
You must have been at Great Clips getting a little taken off the side, and missed it.
