Videos of the protests captured demonstrators holding bright flares as they made their way toward One Police Plaza while others waved flags, banged drums, and chanted “Gaza.” NYPD officers in riot gear monitored the protests, with protesters chanting slogans such as “We will free Palestine within our lifetime.”
The escalation at NYU saw over 150 protesters arrested as the encampment at Gould Plaza was dispersed. A spokesperson for NYU described the protesters as “disorderly, disruptive, and antagonizing,” leading the university to request intervention from the NYPD.

This wave of protests at NYU reflects a broader trend of antisemitic demonstrations across the city and nation, particularly on college campuses. These incidents have intensified since the October 7 sneak attack by Hamas terrorists on Israel and the ensuing military response from the Jewish state.
In a similar vein, over 100 individuals were arrested at Columbia University, prompting the institution to move classes online out of concern for student safety. Additionally, prominent figures, such as a rabbi at the university, urged students to remain at home, which was echoed by university officials allowing for online classes.

The recent protests at Columbia follow last week’s congressional hearing with the university’s president, Minouche Shafik, who addressed the institution’s response to antisemitism. Moreover, demonstrations at Yale and other campuses across the nation have witnessed numerous arrests, indicating the widespread nature of this issue.
The escalating trend of antisemitic protests on university campuses has sparked concern and raised questions about the safety and well-being of students. It underscores the urgency of addressing this issue and fostering an environment of respect and understanding within academic institutions.

The “minimalisation” description of the October 7th ATROCITY as a mere “October 7 sneak attack by Hamas terrorists on Israel” is insulting to those of us who reject the RAPE and BEHEADING OF BABIES together with thousands of other CRIMES against civilians and also legal military personnel – including the taking of hundreds of civilian HOSTAGES and their subsequent TORTURE & MURDERS !
STOP defending the indefensible ! These criminals are bolstering further inhuman crimes !
HAMAS is NOT a weekend playgroup for alienated arabs – it is rightly a BANNED TERRORIST OUTFIT with NOTHING in its favour.
