- Опубликовано: 17 май 2024
- Sen. Robert Ortt, the New York State Republican leader described the Gaza War protesters at Columbia University and The City College of New York, as well as those on other US college campuses as "spoiled brats" and "troublemakers," praising the NYPD arrests of 282 protesters and demonstrators.
Video from Tuesday showed protesters barricading entrances to the building, then hanging a Palestinian flag out a window, as part of the Gaza War protests against the Israel-Hamas war taking place on US college campuses nationwide.
The protesters took over Hamilton Hall nearly 12 hours after Monday's 2PM deadline for those demonstrators to leave an encampment of around 120 tents or face suspension.
NYPD officers entered Hamilton Hall on Tuesday night, arresting those protesters barricaded inside the building.
A class-action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of Jewish students alleging Columbia University failed to maintain a safe learning environment.

There's a difference between peaceful protest and violent protest.
We know it.
This is not peaceful. There are adult protestors coming from Hamas, It is among other groups but the Muslim Brotherhood which was band from Richardson, TX is paying for this madness.
IT'S RIOTS NOT PROTEST
Insurrectionists. Imagine what would've happened if those protesters were donning MAGA apparel?
Par for the course
FREE, FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸 FROM ISLAM ☪️
And hate crimes
Quit being a vile instigator of genocide and this can all disappear.
I'm from west Africa and I've got to say this take AMERICA 🇺🇸 back before is too late 😢 GOD BLESS AMERICA..
I agree with you 100%
From AIPAC,and the ADL!
TOO LATE!! THE ZIONISTS OWN THEM THROUGH THEIR BROAD DAYLIGHT ZIONIST GANGS; AIPAC AND ADL BAHAHAHA
Thanks buddy
Remains to be seen. These demonstrations are waking a lot of people. Demonstrations may also make jew hating people question why, in the general population. We have already fallen, it is my belief we will get back up.
It all boils down to the leadership of this country!!!
What leadership? Biden is the most useless tool of the left ever. He and Obama want this
And the leadership of Israel!!
@@Sarah-im3lpyou blame israel for american students creating havoc? I wouldnt take support from these students with ignorance leaking out.
@@KingMessiah1999 They are protesting American tax dollars going to Netanyahu's war machine!
Makes people question the way these ignorant little monsters were raised. The parents should be ashamed for not noticing or intervening in the warped ideology the child was being indoctrinated into.
MAJOR difference between peaceful protest....and violent riot & property damage! Arrest and charge w vandalism
More than vandalism.
Did the Founding Fathers protest peacefully? Was the Boston Tea Party a non-violent act? Were the Sons of Liberty a pacifist group?
It's a lie and you fell for it. Sorry.
💩 tube deleted my comment again.
And what if the police are the ones who start the violence?
Americans have forgotten what WWII was fought for.
Have they? It's more like YOU have forgotten what WWII was fought for. They are protesting GENOCIDE, you know, what WWII was fought for.
Or is it really you that has forgotten ?
They don’t teach that at these liberal woke universities
@Slw1111 Waaaah....genocide...waaaaah. Too bad. Hamas started this, Israel is going to finish it. You wouldn't be wailing about "genocide" if it were the Jews getting their azz kicked, would you?
Some have, not all.
These students should be banned from going to any college. They have no respect for anyone, including themselves!!! They took for granted what this country has to offer.. In other parts of the world, they would not have a College or University. And worst part is that probably some of these students got government grants to be able to attend Colombia. All these professors who encourage violence the type of that was since on TV should be reprimanded.
How many of those lunatics are foreigners, as well?
They should be banned
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
You are so pathetic. In other countries, they will go to university for free. Did you even leave your village once? You probably never went to college, and so are your kids. Otherwise, you will have a more realistic understanding of college life.
Everyone should be banned from going to any American college.
That President should be arrested for criminal charges
She's from EGYPT
Biden should be arrested , for unaliving 1000 s of people, calling it war
Since they want to support a terrorist organization so bad, they should be charged as terrorists.
The real terrorist are the Jews the Palestinians just want peace and there are Palestinian protesters getting injured from Jews attacking them what does that tell you
Many of us see the IDF as a terrorist organization! The numbers sure bear that out!!
They aren't supporting terrorists. They're protesting genocide. YOU are supporting the terrorists
These students are teaching america about how to defeat colonial oppressive deep states through civil protest and cultural and moral intelligence. The younger generation want to dissociate themselves from the atrocities and shackles of the older generation moving forward. They are criminalizing and incarcerating their future leaders for protesting against genocidal actrocities. When you start criminalizing and incarcerating people for protest against evil behavior, then the older generation in powerful positions are corrupt, immoral and evil.
So, should IDF supporters be charged as war criminals then? Or is that different because reasons.
HOW DARE THEY TAKE DOWN OUR AMERICAN FLAG
Exactly 😡🤬AMERICA 1st!!!!
As Netanyahu likes to say, "Israel owns America."
Why?? America is wrong here! Are you one of those who thinks that America is NEVER wrong??
Someone burned d flag last week
It doesn't matter if you think American is right or wrong, you don't disrespect our flag. If you don't like our country go to the place you are defending. See how long you stay alive!!!!
All should be expelled with no tuitions payed back
And what should be done to the Israelis for murdering 35,000 defenseless men, women, children and babies?
So you think no one should protest against that genocide, right?
Try digging deep to see if you can find your humanity!
Oh but guaranteed ol' Joe will still fund these terrorists I mean forgive their student loans!
I agree. I think the Jewish students who were not allowed to attend class should get a complete refund. The Univ did not protect them.
If they look like they're from Hamas, Talk like they're from Hamas, Act like they're from Hamas... They're part of Hamas.
If they look like nazis and act like nazis then they must be nazis
I thought terrorism was illegal
nah they look like BLM's and antifa
@@matthiatt6834 It is of course. And if you take down the American flag and replace it with a Hamas flag, that is NOT free speech. It is TREASON.
It's funny i didn't know Hamas had a jewish branch
The difference between this protest and most others is that they are representing a foreign nation on US soil this is a hostile army not a protest. you can protest gov. protest people protest rights but you cannot be a traitor to the nation on behalf of another country.
No, they are representing the USA! They are protesting US tax dollars going to Netanyahu's war machine!!
Our entire political class is controlled and represents a hostile foreign nation.
So we cant protest war anymore?
The counter protest to this is also a non NATO forigen country? Don't know America is spending tax dollars to fund and of this forgien fuckery. Then let it effect Americans on American soil.
No. They object to Israeli war crimes and such.
Kudos 👏 on the arrests, but
absolutely disgusting and
disgraceful on behalf of all the parents who allowed their children not only to participate in these protests
but to disrespect our Flag,
our Veterans, who fought so
bravery to protect the freedom we have. Leadership
in our society is at the lowest of and all time.
Give me a break Senator! These spoiled brats have to be held accountable for all the things they caused!
People were hurt by there actions! Do you think our police like to have to stand up against these spoiled brats? What about them. Our government needs to apologize for bringing our Peace keepers into this kind of situation! They are owed apologies
Spoiled brats??? They have the guts to stand up against this Gen o cide the US is supporting!!!! Shame on you!!!!!
The Tian Anmen of America - the Chinese would send in the tanks instead of armed rifles and tear gas. The Chinese are twiddling their thumbs and watching.
Are you a hasbara propagandist confusing the Americans with your cunning? Please take it easy on them. They dont know Israel owns their government and approves free healthcare and free tuition from their taxdollars. And they also dont know Zionists own US cable networks to control them. Please take it easy on the Americans because they dont know all of the politicians on tv only worry about Israeli interests. Even when it has to do with their freedom to protest peacefully. Please take it easy on them bahahahahaha
Actually I think the police are relieved to finally be allowed to do something. They are usually hand tied and gagged.
Funny how I see the term "brats" used over and over again in various channels...like there are bots
How much did you cost the taxpayers for letting this get out of hand?
95 billion precisely.
Probably less than Jan. 6th
Your TDS is showing.
they need to arrest the Dean - he supported it.
Less than we're paying Israel
This was nonsense and should never have happened in our COUNTRY 😡
But it's ABOUT our country!!
These students are teaching america about how to defeat colonial oppressive deep states through civil protest and cultural and moral intelligence. The younger generation want to dissociate themselves from the atrocities and shackles of the older generation moving forward. They are criminalizing and incarcerating their future leaders...
Everyone of them should be expelled from school...period...just in case anyone forgot....school is for learning....

The youngsters think free speech is attacking the American flag...Aren't they sweet
Send them to gaza bet they would be crying and begging to come back within one hour
Thsts because the supreme court said it was back in 74
They must definitely be expelled and deported
Yes, they really are.
Why? Because they were not BLM?
@@sbkarajan ?
Yes, go back to israel
deported where to America, 90% are americans exercising their rights, its only patriotic when right wing nut jobs storm the capital but when college kids protest genocide then is a problem
expel and deport, if outsiders.
If citizens, expel and future employers should be notified of this during background checks.
Because they did something you don’t like?
@@nickolasbarnes4430Obviously because they did something wrong.
You just show your ignorance. They should go back? They CAN NOT! That's the whole point of the conflict. Israel occupied their land and not letting people return to their homes! That's the whole point!!! Israel takes their houses, the houses Palestinians built and had for generations.
We are watching history repeat itself. If we don't get control of it.
We have lost control for all to see. Will we get it back? I think so but nothing is engraved in granite.
Germans didn't react, we are starting to. It has been out of sight for a long time. I saw it, now more are seeing it.
Nazi Germany
They’re imitating Hamas
And the police are imitating the terrorist group IDF.
They r hummus
You're imitating donkey
They aren't imitating shite....they have stated at Columbia that "they are Hamas"..... Google & watch the video 📹
We stand with the police. It is deeply disturbing that a generation of parents have worked hard and paid for these young people to go to universities to be radicalised and used by activists.
Huh you kid for students to go to colleges?? Interesting 🧐
Additionally it’s funny you think your taking the red pill, but you are and have been clearly taking the blue pill. Just believing what crap the govt puts out there hahahah you’re such a joke.
You’re a blue pill wanna be neo. You could never be neo. Keeping taking your blue pill though. You’re a joke
Deborah leys clearly still taking the blue pill, you’re a joke.
I'm questioning the parents, who I have yet to hear speak against this and/or demand these spoiled brats return home. I'm curious what the ideology of the parents. I suspect conversation around the dinner table at the holidays would have tipped them off, so are the parents for or against this despicable behavior?
They had literally taken over a building with water faucets. They are so entitled that they were demanding bottled water or they would "die" of dehydration. What kind of little monsters have people created?
Exactly, this should be an Onion article not real life, also a couple months ago some protesters did a supposed “fast” for Palestine…. They only made it like 8-12 hours and considered that a win 🥇 😹🤦♀️
Really dumb one's 🤣
They were protesting monstrous crimes.
The children hostages still held by Hamas? @@rimbaudrules
Nothing little about these folks but their minds. Can’t imagine trying to teach these people ANYTHING! They don’t have the basics down of being responsible citizens OR students. We all know they are being PAID to do this.
People who lived and survived 9/11 need to speak out at these campuses since many of these brats have no clue what happened on that day. If you watch the wholevideo, the commentators mention how 9/11 happened not too far from Columbia U and how these students probably don't know what happened because some may not have been born.
Do you remember Kent State?
@@lauratyler4863 yes
The hell does that have to do with protests?
and you have no clue what's happening now.
What does that have to do with the genocide in the Gaza strip?
They need to make it that protesting isn’t allowed on campus period. College and university campuses are for education, not activism. They can protest outside
least irrational "first amendment advocate" when someone says something they disagree with
@@awepishut up!
@@awepithey are wrong in their way of thinking?
Those were not protests; they were vandelism and hate speech. It will notbe tolerated anymore.
Good they are thinking critically and taking action, very definition of an education
All of those students will claim on their resume' that they were "active in politics" while they were in college. Then they'll run for office. God help us all.
With their record of supporting a terrorist group
good I never emigrated to the US.... what a holy mess you have there. (I am from Germany... other than the gun laws and guns there is no difference really so why even bother...) here they changed the phrases - the river issue, you know - during the may demo, so the police let them get away with it.... clever... the police is probably on the side of the Palestinians. sad. I believe the world is close to an end. Really now.
Yes they will get the corruption out of this discusting leaders we have.!trash
Need to arrest them citizenship REVOKED and deported immediately !!
Come and take it, troll.
@@fahadashsomehow if u do a track and pattern it all goes down to ☪️
I always wondered if you take people country and land away from them then where are you going to deport them to
@Bill Commie much?
Cant some are Americans
Spoiled brats is an understatement
They should be charged, expelled and their student visas, if they have them removed and sent back home. To wherever that may be.
I have been saying this for over a week now. If you hate America, LEAVE. Omar hates the US, she has said so, go back to Somalia. How can a Congressperson hate America?
I'm guessing the never taught real history at columbia
Bull. The Israelis have committed crimes against the Palestinians. Apparently they learned real history.
Of course they do! Why don't you try reading a book to understand the genocide that the Israelis have been committing against the native Palestinians for the past 75 years. You probably think that it's okay for them to do that.
Try digging deep and see if you can find a conscious!
@@LarryGrant-ru6bo Projecting crimes onto others is confession of wrongdoing. Don't evade accountability for atrocities by hiding behind the innocent.
exactly what I was thinking!
@@LarryGrant-ru6bo why Don't you go back a little further in history ? Why because it doesn't fit your narrative. .
These "spoiled brats", do they have parents?
Peaceful protesting does not entail engaging in acts of violence, disruption, or aggression against individuals with differing political views on foreign affairs. Such behavior constitutes a form of political discrimination and ideological intolerance. Vandalism is unlawful and defines one as a vandal. Theft is morally reprehensible and classifies one as a thief. Assaulting others with rocks, water bottles, or fists is deplorable and designates one as an assailant. Preventing students and teachers from accessing school due to their religious beliefs makes you a bigot. These actions do not align with the principles of peaceful protest.
"Don't believe your lying eyes"
Recent events on campuses are on video and have demonstrated behavior that contradicts the ideals of peaceful, non-violent, orderly, and respectful protest. There are numerous videos depicting protesters disrespecting students and staff, infringing upon their right to safety. It is beyond comprehension why individuals would protest a foreign war by inciting violence within our own borders.
The United States of America is the melting pot of the world. We are a rich tapestry of cultures, religions, and ethnicities. We are Black, Hispanic, White, Asian, Native American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders. We are Multiracial, and many of us are of Mixed-race heritage. We are Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Hinduist, and Atheist. We are American. To harbor hatred towards our country is to display a deficiency in resilience and dedication to the fundamental aspiration shared by all: freedom. Your freedom ends where mine begins.
Everyone should be standing against this. Shame on you if you are not. Be on the right side of history people. FREE Palestine, FREE our students! America is just as responsible as Israel for the massacre of over 30, 000 babies, children, women and men!
Ott is a jerk.
Your full of crap. Move to Israel. The United States represents the Citizens of the United States of America. Not anymore. Now this country is for Israel! The United States of Israel..
Nice!
A proper protest has decorum. A protest happens on a Saturday from 8am to 5pm. You protest with your placards, you get press coverage and then you leave. You don't get in people's way, and you don't disrupt students studying for final exams, or families trying to attend their child's graduation. These are not protests. These are open demonstrations of anarchy. I am glad the cops are coming in to restore order. We live in a civilized country. What the hell!!
Well said!
I stand with Israel. 100%
So does most of the US congress and their dual citizenship proves it.
👌❤🇮🇱
Education! Education not indoctrination
The problem is that K-12 eliminated the social sciences and civics. Now there is a political movement to remove them from college. This is how I end up with students in my classes who know nothing about history, political process, ethics. They have been taught STEM which is good, but at the expense of the basic knowledge that they need to be good citizens and effective political leaders. It is not the teachers or the professors, it is a system that no longer teaches subjects that are fundamental to democracy.
Everybody take notes on WHO NOT to vote for!!!!!
We don't vote for people. We vote for parties. People can't run for office unless you have a party behind you. And since the parties are the people's worst enemies we are screwed.
Well done NYPD.❤️🙏 University leadership should have given permission to go on campus sooner!! University was complicit in promoting Antisemitism by not stopping supporters of Hamas Terrorists. Sickening!!😡😡
This is not about supporting Hamas, please widen your news sources. It’s about mass killings of civilians, including a majority of women and children. The UN is speaking out about it for months and now and reports have been produced.
Islam madness
Protesters? No terrorists
He is Absolutely right to put the blame down to the teachers and managements and university heads who have been fostering anti semitism and anti American sentiments over decades.
Well spoken Senator !
You said it All!
I guess that senator doesn’t care much about mass killings of civilians in Gaza, neither.
Hamas is now fully operating in America
After 3 years of totally open borders. Hmmm...it couldn't be related right?
Ever heard of AIPAC
Yap.

Yes, all of the above.
To go to college is a privilege.

You also don't get to pick who gets thrown out.
I wore the uniform--believe me--you represent yourself and noone else.
Not much difference between what you are saying and the idiots who are protesting, except what side you choose. Go ahead and put something nonsensical in all caps.
Those professors need to lose their jobs and not be allowed to teach anywhere again
Far Left Activists.
Israel is only small country was surrounding by Muslims country, that's why we need to stand with Israel.
Israel is a settler colony full of dual national Europeans and North Americans, cosplaying at being the ancient inhabitants of the Levant
No one believes this lil' Zionist trope anymore.
Genesis 12 regarding Israel
It's the year 2024 AD. AD means 2,024 years after JEWISH JESUS' "Death." Muhammad (Islam)was born 540 AD. Israel came b4 Islam & 2nd: "There is no "P" in Arabic. So if you let them say, "This isn't about Oct 7, it's about 1948" YOU SAY "Oh, let's go back FURTHER to "What YEAR is it & WHY does the Christian calendar start with a Jews Death & not Muhammad's who was born a THOUSAND+ years later."
Oh and btw Hamas murdered innocent Americans. So these students are supporting terrorists who kidnapped and murdered innocent civilian Americans some of them children.
When will the ". . . weak men create hard times . . ." era be over in America?😟
Flag of Hamas Neo- Swastika
And the arrested should have a record…
Well, I guess their futures is doo, now they have a criminal record.
All protesters are at fault - students, teachers, administrators and outsider’s. Jail time. Job loss. Terrorism is not a free speech issue.
Ok fascist.
This Senator is Bang On! Well said
Also well paid by Aipac.
Throw Soros in jail. It’ll stop.
Send them to Palestine.
This isn't rocket science. When you place an invisible fence in front of hyenas what do you think is going to happen? 😂
Islam put a dome on top of an older religion.
So did Christianity, AND Judaism! You are Literate, right?
I'm so glad that someone said that out loud. "Nothing sums up this generation better . . . than that press conference." I'm getting really tired of having so many "I told you so" moments. An entire generation acting for social media, likes, clicks, subscriptions, etc. Make me want to hurl.
Exactly!! I agree with this gentleman.
If they are so concerned about "Palestinian genocide", then why protest on a comfortable American college campus, 6,000 miles away? Send these defenders of all things they have no clue about over to Israel so they can address Netanyahu directly.
I mean...they are.
Like not these individuals but there are very much Jews and some Israelis protesting this too.
SHAME on Columbia University! I’m so glad my kids didn’t attend there. I hope the university loses major donors which would hopefully get them to consider offering actual education instead of indoctrination.
Biden's voters
there a duh! only stupid would stand with a cult that demands there unalive once no longer useful, chrsitans cult did same thing years ago in many nations in hostory and now look at cult...
Yes expelled… and if they have student visas…. Take them away
Much worse than spoiled brats. Its a far bigger and complexed fenomenon
Check your pH level. ☺️
Our kids WANT to be edgy. They want to be the cognozenti, the ones who know what is really going on. Sad that they know so little.
This all started in the 70's during affirmative action. Which was deemed to be unconstitutional. So they renamed it DEI. It was never about inclusion, equity and lol, diversity. It's all about Division, Identity and Elitists
Even Beat Poet Jack Kerouac left Columbia University in the early 1940s, saying: "All they want to do is teach communism." You bet that this has been around for a long time. Herbert Marcuse, the archect of "Critical Theory" was given tenure at the University of California in San Diego and Long Beach, where he taught radicalism for decades!
NY will still Vote for Buyden this November because they like living in His World..
It's serious disgusting joke

You don't take down a American flag and put up a terrorist flag. Unforgivable in the USA IT'S NOT ALOW ED BIG BIG MISTAKE. THAT FLAG MEANS A LOT TO PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD. OLD GLORY WILL FOR EVER WAVE .

DEMONstrators
Institutions of Degenerative Learning.
GOD stands with Israel 🙏❤️

Aren't you brilliant, the government continues to steal our rights and you support them. Wake up!
cant do it cause biden is banking on free loan to win his dirty election
Jewish lobbies started to do their jobs.
Professors taught them this shite!
Forget college and bring back the military draft. Teach them to respect our flag and country 🇺🇸, turn them into soldiers and not spoiled brats
Everyone should be standing against this. Shame on you if you are not. Be on the right side of history people.
This is a Jewish school.What is going on?
Senator is 💯 right and on point with this anslysis. This behavior persists because its tolerated. It shouldn't be.
What I as born in America, as my parents grandparts, great great grandparents..Why don't the Dean manage and leaders of America, stop this nonsense of this type of actions..STOP IT
Fired, she should be charged arrested for incompetence! They talk about these kids being arrested I bet you none of them gets charged. They're not universities or college campuses, their daycares!
Same people who looted and destroyed stores, appalling state of youth education, what is happening to America?
It's systematically being destroyed from within.
Free America from Gaza!
Our constitution provides for the right to peaceable assembly. That means you're free to communicate any ideas you wish, BUT you've got to obtain permit, not to censor you but to ensure that you can't disrupt those who are not a part of your big noise. This is because the constitution does not provide the right to disrupt the lives of others.
Also, the permitting process and law enforcement should be politically neutral. But now the courts, cops, and laws have all been partisanized toward the left. Democratic decision has been replaced by mob action.
Our "leadership class" has leveraged disproportionate power for itself by a true and actual subversion of democracy. Pressure groups, think tanks, and "activists" are nothing more than groups who hack democracy and honest discourse.
They were probably released at once without bail and no charges will be pressed.
Why do universities even allow protests? Students have been taking the piss for decades. Too much booze? Rampant immaturity? They're supposed to be places of education ffs.
They are educated, that's the point!, it's you who is ignorant 🤦♂️
Ignorant of what? Wanting people to get on with their learning in peace? Do the students who only want to get on with their course not matter to you? Clearly not, and I'm ignorant? Wow 😂
*This is how you know these people can't think for themselves:*
They protest a war between two separate nations, where one side is responding to an unprovoked attack, yet, *they've been silent for the past 3 years while the military of Myanmar slaughters its people* following a coup, where they took control of the government *because the people voted for Aung San Suu Kyi. Who is she? Oh, just a woman who was awarded the LITERAL Nobel Peace Prize for campaigning for democracy!* You can't make this up!!
It sounds like a novel or film, but it's reality!!!
The Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project says that *the war in Myanmar is the MOST violent of the 50 conflicts it tracks.* Since the coup, *at least 50,000 people have been killed there, including at least 8,000 civilians,* the group says.
By the end of last year, *more than 2.6 million people had been driven from their homes* in a country of about 55 million, according to the United Nations human rights office.
*More than 18 million people are in desperate need of humanitarian assistance,* according to the United Nations, which says that a million had required such aid before the coup.
*Each month, hundreds of thousands of people are displaced by the fighting.*
YET, THEY PROTEST ISRAEL
holy whataboutism
assuming you're not a shill, columbia is actively investing in israeli causes, and the students are protesting against it; if Columbia was invested in the current Myannmar regime they'd be protesting that. Of course this is fox news so they don't mention it, only "the evil protesters are back and they're gonna kill your dog" (or something along those lines).
Please address the deal some universities are making with students to give full scholarships to Palestinians, to hire Palestinian professors, and to build Muslim centers on campus. How will they prevent terrorism from growing even more? How will they protect Jewish and Christian students?
Stop giving them student visas. Don’t let them in.
Can a college get sued by the city? If so, sue them to get compensated for the use of law enforcement.
they probably get tuition paid for creating chaos.
Well where are their parents; and do they support and tolerate this behavior?
Bunch of kids who think they know so much but know nothing about life yet, there so young they don't even know they're born
To our Police Officers, prayers as needed. Thank you!!
Wonder who’s funding them? Free Pullovers, scarves, food (booze), tents etc. students do not normally have extra $$ to waste.
Expel..if not USA citizens deport..no final exams.
