Jewish student says real problem with campus antisemitism is in classrooms
Columbia University’s campus was disrupted yet again on Tuesday when masked protesters invaded an Israeli studies class and distributed antisemitic literature to outraged students.
As students were reviewing the syllabus on the first day of their History of Modern Israel class – the only class on Israel at the university that’s taught by an Israeli historian – four masked demonstrators donning keffiyehs barged in while delivering an anti-Israel sermon as they filmed themselves.
"We’re giving you the inside scoop on Columbia University’s normalization of genocide," said one masked protester.
The disrupters then distributed antisemitic fliers to the students that showed a jackboot stomping on a Jewish star and what appeared to be a Hamas terrorist waving a burning Israeli flag, as Professor Avi Shilon attempted to bring stability back to his classroom.
"The enemy will not survive tomorrow," said one threatening flier over an image of Hamas terrorists brandishing rifles on top of a vehicle.
"Burn Zionism to the ground," read another.
