Columbia Public Safety just forcibly removed multiple students, violently removing the ONE PALESTINIAN STUDENT who had only been chained for ten minutes. THEY WOULD RATHER VIOLENTLY DRAG US OFF CAMPUS THAN REVEAL THE TRUSTEES WHO TURNED MAHMOUD OVER TO ICE.

For 4 days the pro-Hamas mob Columbia University has taken over our campus. No one bothered them. Saturday night, we went out with Israeli flags for one hour. They stole our flag and tried to burn it, my brother was assaulted, and Jewish students were splashed with water. Public safety was nowhere to be found. Columbia has lost its campus. This is why Jewish students don’t feel safe. Because they are not.

🚨 GREAT NEWS Columbia student and Co-President of the Palestinian Student Union Mohsen Mahdawi has been arrested by ICE He was infamous for appearing on 60 Minutes and running a lot of the Pro-Hamas rallies that harassed Jewish students. They got him. Another one bites the dust. Looks like he will be getting a one-way ticket back to Judea and Samaria.

No freaking way...Cameras were removed from the building where the Brown shooting happened to protect pro-Palestine protestors and illegal immigrants. Newsmax: "We have heard over these last couple of days that many of the cameras were actually removed to protect pro-Palestinian demonstrators on Brown's campus. Tell us more on that." Analyst: "A student did say something to me about that as well. And there was also another gentleman in the briefing room as well, who said that it was also to protect some people who may have been working at the university, who may have had illegal immigration status, and they didn't want them to be recorded as well." Apparently protecting liberals is more important than safety and justice.

"We will continue to rage at this institution until Mahmoud Khalil is free." Graduates from Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) chant 'Free Palestine' and rip up their diplomas in protest against the university, while also calling for authorities to free Mahmoud Khalil. The protest follows the detention of Mahmoud Khalil, a graduate student of Palestinian background from SIPA. Mahmoud, who is a green card holder, was unlawfully detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at his university-owned apartment. The Trump administration wants to deport Khalil who holds permanent residency in the US.

Montreal, October 7th. A McGill student with an Israeli flag was chased by police on horses, then threatened with arrest for obstruction if he refused to leave the campus. For his "safety." Shortly after this, a group of students holding Israeli flags were told they had to leave the McGill campus, or they would be arrested for obstruction. For their "safety." McGill security would not comment on whether or not McGill has an official policy to remove students with Israeli flags. The SPVM would not comment, nor would they direct me to a police liaison to clarify why these students were being targeted. Hundreds of anti-Israel protesters were permitted on campus with Palestinian flags. Some of these protesters burned an Israeli flag. Why are the students "unsafe" while holding a flag? Is holding a flag that radicals dislike now grounds for arrest in Canada? The SPVM seem to be doing the bidding of the radicals. They claim that holding one flag is obstruction but holding another is not. Why are they refusing to enforce the law. Why is carrying the Palestinian flag police-permitted and police-protected freedom of expression, when carrying the Israeli flag isn't? Rather than contending with the radicals and arresting them if they commit crimes, the SPVM opted to remove the peaceful students from campus. Another victory for pro-Hamas radicals on our streets. Another attack on freedom of expression.

Mike Lawler just hit the nail on the head. "What the general public sees is a Democratic Party that is more interested in defending people like Mahmoud Khalil than they are victims of crime here in New York City or Jewish students who have been subjected to vile anti-Semitism"

A Palestinian family from Hebron, in the occupied West Bank, left their home to attend an Iftar, the meal breaking their Ramadan fast, on Sunday evening. Ten minutes later, they received a call from their neighbours telling them Jewish settlers had taken over their house. They returned to find the settlers had occupied the house and removed the family’s possessions outside, while guarded by Israeli soldiers who refused to let them re-enter. The settlers claimed they had purchased the house, which the Palestinian family denied.

🚨BREAKING: In Queens, New York, ICE agents were caught on video violently shoving, and threatening, U.S. citizens because they dared to stand on a public sidewalk. The U.S. citizens weren’t blocking traffic. They weren’t interfering. They weren’t even yelling… They were filming, while another agent stood right next to them, without issue. Then, out of nowhere, an ICE agent came charging from off camera, screaming, “BACK THE FUCK UP,” and then violently shoved one of the men multiple times. Even as the U.S. citizens backed up, the ICE agent continued to violently shoved one of them, held pepper spray inches from his face, as the other agent threatened the second man with a taser. When you’re walking down the street, observing a traffic stop from the sidewalk, normally police officers don’t sprint over, scream profanities at you, assault you, and then threaten you with weapons… And that’s because watching law enforcement activity, from a public place, is protected by the First Amendment. Recording law enforcement performing their duties, in public, is constitutionally protected. The law generally only allows officers to use force when they’re facing an actual safety threat, active physical resistance, or someone trying to flee… not because U.S. citizens are standing on a public sidewalk, watching and filming. And the most telling part? If these U.S. citizens, standing on a public sidewalk, were really a threat… the ICE agents wouldn’t have instantly turned their backs to the threat, and walked away. Because that just proved they were never a threat at all. So, why did ICE agents violently shove U.S. citizens, and threaten them with weapons?

Traffic stop began for no reason other than they were racially profiled—according to stepbrothers Edwin Godinez and Yair Alexander Napoles. The incident occurred in Rowan County, North Carolina. #DemsUnited

This is Columbia’s Mahmoud Khalil speaking at the “Welcome Home Mahmoud” rally. This is likely the most complete version of his speech that’s publicly available—for now. The footage comes from BreakThrough News (funded by Neville Roy Singham), and even this version appears to be selectively edited. He began by expressing appreciation for his freedom and his wife’s support: “I’m grateful to be standing freely next to all of you today” and “I’m grateful to my wife, whose support, love, and care has kept me upright.” Khalil praised student activists at Columbia and nationwide, stating: “I would like to salute the courage of all students at Columbia and across the nation.” He sharply criticized Columbia’s leadership, calling them “the shameful board of trustees,” and alleged they are “currently attempting to expel 15 more students” for pro-Palestinian advocacy. He accused the university of suppressing speech, saying: “Columbia University will do everything and anything it can to ensure that the words ‘Free Palestine’ are not uttered anywhere near it.” According to Khalil, the university also denied organizers the ability to hold the rally at the campus gates. Addressing how he’s been portrayed, Khalil said: “The administration has tried its best to portray me as someone who's violent,” but insisted: “Mahmoud is a human rights defender… a father and husband… a Palestinian who refuses to remain silent.” He described the war in Gaza as a genocide “committed by the genocidal state of Israel, funded by the U.S. government, and invested in by Columbia University.” Recalling his time in ICE detention, he said: “The center is crowded with hundreds of people who are told that their existence is illegal, and not one of us knows when we can go free.” He ended with a chant that helped sustain him: “I believe that we will win.”

The US Capitol has the capability for public addresses and emergency notifications. Not once on that day did anybody get on a PA system and tell the crowd to leave or they would risk prosecution. Instead, police went straight to flash banging and gassing crowds of people who were standing non-violently outside. That’s when the agitated crowd began to respond.
