Unauthorized Pro-Hamas Protest Erupts At Columbia University | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Despite warnings from university administrators that such speech and demonstrations would not be permitted, an unauthorized pro-Hamas protest erupted on Columbia University's campus on Wednesday.

    Israeli Columbia professor Shai Davidai - who has previously sounded the alarm regarding openly anti-Semitic activity at the prestigious school - shared some details about the event in a thread posted to X, noting that the university still appeared reluctant to take even the smallest steps to put a stop to it.

    "An UNAUTHORIZED pro-Hamas protest," Davidai began. "By refusing to hold the organizers accountable, Columbia is sending a big f*** you to every Jewish and Israeli student, faculty, or staff. The President of Columbia needs to be held accountable."

    He then shared the first of several videos, which featured a speaker who told the crowd that there was "nothing more honorable than dying for a noble cause."

    "Where have I heard that one before?" he asked.

    The next video featured a chant calling for the genocide of all Jews and the elimination of Israel as a Jewish state.

    "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be Arab," he quotes the speaker as saying. "According to this person, my 93 year old Jewish grandmother and 4 year old Jewish niece do not have a right to exist in Israel. So much for 'peaceful' protests."

    A third organizer riled the crowd further, calling for "armed resistance."

    "How is it OK to call for killing civilians in the U.S.?" Davidai asked.

    Davidai shared one additional video of the chants, after which he again pointed out that everything said and done at the protest was in violation of stated university policy.


    "Remember: EVERYTHING you just saw is against @Columbia's rules. 6 weeks ago, the President of @Columbia said that speech like this 'will not be tolerated.' Well, guess what? Not only does she f***ing tolerate it, she is REFUSING to do anything about it."

    Davidai then stated that the university was aware of who was leading the protests, saying that alumni and donors - as well as prospective students - should be paying close attention to the school's repeated failure to address anti-Semitic protests and demonstrations.

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?

  Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.

  No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.

  I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?

A majority of Americans still believe in OUR 1st Amendment guaranteed Freedom of Speech; however, at what bold point does the constitutional right to Free Speech becomes unabashed anti-Semitic Hate Speech, and while it should possibly be tolerated on our college campuses, and on the streets of mostly Sanctuary Cities, these events should be rightfully observed and scrupulously monitored ... or, not? What is your true opinion of when too much of enough is just too much, or not?

  The answer to Free Speech I don't agree with is more, and incredibly robust Free Speech.

  There is a point when Free Speech becomes counter productive to sustaining a peaceful society.

  Free Speech should only be tolerated if it represents the status quo of the highly educated orthodoxy.

  Early in life, I learned to speak only when I am spoken to.

Considering the current overwhelming obstacles inflicting stress upon America's working class: rampant inflation; energy insecurity; supply chain turmoil; banking failures; foreign policy disasters; government corruption; (DEI) Diversity Equity Inclusion narrative, with WOKE extremes practiced; Climate Change ideology; intractable crime wave in Leftist cities; wide open border by executive design; a permanently discredited Legacy Media; failed or failing education industry, just to name a few of the many: Who should Americans blame?

  Donald J. Trump

  Joseph R. Biden

  Leftist controlled Congress for the last 4 years.

  Bloated, incompetent bureaucracy weaponized and poorly managed

  The electorate, US, for putting these fools in elected office that utterly fail
