Columbia University faces full-blown crisis as rabbi calls for Jewish students to “return home”

Demanding a ceasefire is not equal to antisemitism. These dumbass politicians can’t fucking figure that out.

Sooo... where's the antisemitism these liberal pundits are all getting hysterical about and wants to pretend poses some kind of "antisemitic" threat to Jewish people at this university?

Oh, right... here it is.

“Columbia students organizing in solidarity with Palestine – including Jewish students – have faced harassment, doxxing, and now arrest by the NYPD. These are the main threats to the safety of Jewish Columbia students,” Jonathan Ben-Menachem, a PhD student, told CNN.

Ie, all the antisemitism is coming from the usual sources - the US political establishment, it's pet media and it's goon squads.

"... calls for violence and physical intimidation targeting Jewish students and the Jewish community are blatantly antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous" ...

Yeah, cool bro. True, but also, nothing in this article suggests that's what's actually happening.

While a lot of hand-wringing was done about how bad it would be if people did harassment or violence, not one single solitary scrap of a story about someone actually being targeted in that way emerged from the reading. (Edit: Correction: Precisely one single solitary scrap of a story implying violence occurred in the article, see the end of this comment) Despite this, of course, the brownshirts are being called in to remove protestors and silence the extremely loud criticism of Israel's recent actions.

A video taken on the university’s campus Saturday night also shows a small group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators chanting, “F**k Israel. Israel is a b*tch,” while waving the Palestinian flag.

Does not constitute a threat, violence, or harassment. A protected first-amendment expression of opinion about Israel's bitchiness.

... videos circulated showing a man outside the university saying, “Never forget the seventh of October,” and “that will happen not one more time, not five more times, not 10 more times, not 100 more times, not 1,000 more times, but 10,000 times!”

And he's right, too. It will keep happening while Israel continues to act like a bitch.

Another student, Noah Lederman, told CNN he was “terrified, angry, upset, and horrified that the university failed to take action.” Lederman said he had been accosted in early February and had asked the university for remote learning options. “What’s happening on campus is blatantly antisemitic,” he added.

You were spoken to in a challenging and/or aggressive way? On a college campus? Oh you poor thing. I feel so sad- That must have been really hard for you.

“This is a time of genuine discomfort and even fear for many of us on campus,” the Hillel said...

Cool bro. I'm so sorry you're uncomfortable. For some reason though, when you say the words 'discomfort' and 'fear' I get a persistent mental image of exploded children. And crocodiles for some reason? Crying crocodiles.

He contrasted the “pretty peaceful” environment on campus with the more energized demonstrations outside campus, referencing “deeply disheartening” incidents that took place Saturday night outside campus by people Emery said were not affiliated with the university. He added that some more observant Jewish friends of his had experienced harassment but that Jewish students should feel safe on campus.

Yeah, CNN, would you mind being more fucking specific? If there's Actual Violence occurring, that's the thing I want to know about. Until then, your framing contributes to a pretty specific narrative that doesn't seem to align with the facts you're reporting. Weird, that.

The double standard is that in this case, they say "calls for violence and physical intimidation targeting Jewish students and the Jewish community are blatantly antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous”, while in this case

no action was taken, and later Claudine Gay resigned. What's ironic though is that with the doxxing truck

The University’s Hillel, its Jewish student organization, condemned the billboard truck and attempts to intimidate signatories.

“Harvard Hillel strongly condemns any attempts to threaten and intimidate co-signatories of the Palestine Solidarity Committee’s statement, including the bus on campus displaying the names and faces of students affiliated with the groups who have signed it,” the organization said in a statement posted on its website.

The OP article is about antisemitism and it looks like Zionists use of Jews as human shields is working.

I do not envy Jewish students right now.

They have spent their life being told, like I was, from their parents and grandparents that if there is no Israel, the Holocaust would happen again and they personally would be put in a death camp.

At the same time, they see Israel's apartheid state and now the genocide it is committing.

Even though I have been very vocally against both of these things for many years, I still have to headcheck myself sometimes when seeing a rightful criticism of Israel just because I was told for 18 years of my life that Israel was the only thing stopping Nazis from rising up again and killing me.

Whoa a tent camp. Better return to their active war zone which tries to start world war 3 with Iran.

This is propaganda..
