In my era Vietnam Stop The War they used tear gas on us.
And those students were right, they were protesting for a cause worth supporting; these students are just plain ignorant, manipulated by Hamas propaganda and disinformation. They should all be forced to take a class on the history of the Middle East.
not even close to the same cause
True we were protesting something that effected our lives and futures. These people are shouting "Death to America"@@grepbeer
@@grepbeer Not true, they're still using that same tear gas
@@allanaaa no they are not. They even release these criminals same day
“Crying in despair.” Most of those kids have most likely never experienced anything that would cause despair. If this is the worst they ever experience then they will absolutely be alright.
bot
@@stakstik2884 😂 Really? Is that your default answer to anything you don't agree with? Or, are you just letting us all know that you are a bot?
As a professor, and as a graduate of Columbia University, I am embarrassed to be a professor listening to this and other Columbia faculty.
Why? Be specific
The president needs to go. She completely mishandled these protests.
She should’ve called NYPD
@@dragonflarefrog1424 Well, she should not have, and the entire world disagrees with you.
@@Rades1055 Wrong, she should’ve called them much earlier, this is why a bipartisan group of Congresman called for her resignation.
Finally, she called the cops, and everyone except anarchists and pro-hamas supporters agree that it was right, but way too late. You’re not the whole word, polling shows most Americans don’t support criminal trespass.
@@dragonflarefrog1424 whatever! The pro-Hamas bla bla bla propaganda is utterly disgusting!
@@Rades1055 next time she will call the military. Time to be tough.
Doing everything you want without any consequences?! What do these students think? Colleges are out of control
That’s literally what Israel is doing.
They know the consequences. Someone needs to speak for the women and children of Gaza.
@@Zarastro54 That's literally what Hamas is also doing, and what all Arab countries want to do, they all want to get rid of each other.
It's called free speech.
@@lochlannach7 No, Hamas launched its war expecting a response and no help. Israel routinely engages in war crimes and expects everyone to excuse them simply on the basis that “Hamas struck first.” Heck, THEY literally struck against Iran by illegally hitting a consulate building and killing one of their generals, then acted indignant when they shot back in response. If you are looking for entitled people who want to act with impunity, look no further than the Israeli government.
Still nothing on last night’s “counter protest” at UCLA.
They are Isreal propaganda, they reguse to report it.
Doesn't fit the propaganda narrative being pushed.
Apparently, these students have no concept of actions have consequences.
Haven't heard one of these virtue signalers speak about the genocides going on in China, Burma, Ethiopia or, Sudan...That makes me think this isn't really to do with Gaza/Palestinians , it's just a way for entitled kids to have something to scream about. and a way to express their true antisemitic feelings. It's a shame they don't do their homework to know the full history like who the true indigenous people of Judea(the true name of what they refer to as Palestine)are, or that Judaism is a millennium older than Islam, or that many very poor Jewish people in Europe pooled their money to buy back some of the land in Judea(that was stolen from them), or that the name Palestinian is barely over a hundred years old and describes an amalgamation of various Arabs that wanted a title for political purposes. That most other Arab countries don't allow Palestinians into their countries That Egypt also shares a walled border with Gaza.. And that Palestinian "refugees" have been on the dole from UNRWA for 80 years non-stop, even though many have Jordanian citizenship. They spew phrases without knowing the historical meaning, or geography they refer to. I just can't figure out how they got into university, really......
That's 100% true.
blame game has begun...no one willing to take responsibility... when in reality everyone involved is responsible for the results of there actions or inaction......
From the videos I've seen, I have to say the NYPD had every right to be there. The "protest" had descended into chaos, vandalism and lawlessness. Stop making excuses.
They were invited by the president of the University. It's private property and they need their permission to enter.
@@howardj602 What are you talking about? They took over private property, and barricaded themselves in. They broke windows and smashed doors. Even worse they have descended into a disgusting hateful mob that screamed about burning Columbia to the ground until their "demands" are met. This may have started as a legitimate cry for peace, but they aren't yelling for a return of the hostages, or a two state solution. They are calling for the final solution, as in, Hitlers final solution. They are calling for Israel to become Palestine from the river to the sea, as in goodbye Israel. Jewish students, who were identified by nothing more than a Star of David around their necks, (not carrying an Israeli flag), and they have been called k*(kes, spit on, harassed, blocked from movement by human chains, beaten with sticks and had their property stolen. It's nauseating and reminiscent of 1930's Germany. Stop gaslighting and acting like this is A okay with the administrators. It is not and that is why they called the cops.
I hope you understand what the cops have done for fueling the protesters.
They're peaceful protesters being harassed and arrested by NYPD for practicing freedom of speech. Those who stand up for these police are the lawless thrash.
@@al-bot1094 You should thank the outsiders, provocateur-types for that
Crying like a 5 year old being put in time out.
Nobody has told them "no" enough times in their lives for them to grow up, so yeah, they have pretty much stayed as spoiled children who throw a tantrum and always get their way.
Free Americans from AIPAC
Spoken like someone who hates Jews. Sad to be filled with hate.
Free Palestine from Hamas
Free America from Hamas. We fly American flag, not Hamas flag.

Never been told no before. When the one who occupied the building demanded food I thought "The revolution will be catered?"
This is why “all protests MUST be off campus!” . .far away & televised!
Taking over a campus building. without permission Is trespassing! It is against the law! That is not a peaceful protest! Everybody needs to sit down and like adults and listen to what the other side has to say. This so-called peaceful protest is not helping in any way. it certainly not helping in Gaza or Israel. It is just making unnecessary trouble. Sitting down in a room and all sides laying out their concerns is a better way to find solutions to your problems.

Get realistic. Annihilation of entire population , killing of children in an occupied territory is not targeting Hamas. By the way who funded Hamas in 2019- stop the propogonda. The students stand with human rights.

The Kent State protest was because there had been thousands of Americans killed in Vietnam and the war was expanding into Cambodia. A stretch on your part.

@@iluvmoney6767 THE POINT is what the man is saying. Is there any logic to be found in your insulting "adulthood"? Oh, you should know that multiple replies have been deleted from this page. What's your best guess as to why that is?
@@sharonmassey2923 Snowflakes are snowflakes.
With all the chants for "free free Palestine" have any of these students stopped to envision what a "free Palestine" would actually look like. Would it be a democratically elected government that respects the opposition? Would there full freedom of religion, speech, and representation in government and society in general? Would there be fair representation for all minorities including LGBTQ and would women be able to fully participate in society and work if they choose? Would they have a government that values peace with its neighbors as their main goal?
Lets look at all the other predominately Moslem and Arab countries not only in the region but the entire world for some clues. How many have any level of respect for individual liberty, freedom of religion or freedom from religion, governments embracing minority groups, respect for and living in peace and understanding with their neighboring countries? Can we use Syria or Yemen as a model? How about Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, or Afghanistan for that matter? Egypt or Lebanon?
The Palestinian people have shown 3/4 of a century of being their own worse enemy turning away from one compromise after another and when given the chance a murderous infighting between Hamas and the PA not to mention always resorting to violence to further their goals. What governments they have do not respect their own people, preventing free elections and using them as sacrificial pawns in a massive propaganda camping to demonetize the other side.
If they had taken a more reasonable and peaceful path with the willingness to compromise and control some of the more base passions that all humans have they would have long ago had their own nation, self determination and peace and prosperity.
This is way too deep for them it is way easier to mindlessly chant
Wow. One of the most racist and ignorant comments I have every read. In your mind a" free" Palistine should be what you and your ilk decide it should be. My country Jamaica 🇯🇲 claims they got independence from Great Britain in 19 62 but the newly crowned king is the head of state of Jamaica. It's like freeing the slaves but you still have total control over their lives. Your day will come .
Their nation was peaceful until in 1948 when the Israel government pushed 750'000 Palestinian's out of their villages and off of their homelands. Many of them were slaughtered by the IDF back then. Self-determination of a country should be left to their own people. We cannot make every country like America. America still has many issues of their own to sort out.
The compromises are and have been heavy handed by the western governments. More like broken promises.
The protestors are at fault for the escalation. All protests should be off campus, at least 3 miles away!
No, the protesters are not at fault, but you wouldn't know that unless you get at least some of your news from non-corporatized independent journalists. Why should the protests be off campus? Is there a choice spot to protest genocide that's 3 miles away? Have you protested the genocide in any way, shape or form?
@@sharonmassey2923 the students are on a private campus and pay lots of money to have a safe place to study and attend classes. All protests should be off campus! Protestors have no right to disrupt this. They should protest off campus, at a public space.
@@AnnaMishel I posted this up top, and hopefully it's still there. Your thoughts on the reason? "It should also be noted that multiple replies have disappeared from this page. As only one example, the post below of jccarriere3719 had several replies, including one from me, and now there are none, although it says there's one reply."
college campuses are exactly where this type of protest should take place
The impact on Gazans really does break my heart. I don't know how it could NOT break the heart of any sentient being. But that doesn't seem to be what either the protests, OR the Hamas strategy is about. Has Hamas made a point of keeping their activities confined to areas where the populace would not simply become collateral damage? Does Hamas want any sort of peace that does not involve wiping Israel off the map? They haven't really given any signs of that. So exactly what is the point of these protests and disruptions? Is it merely to engage in symbolic punishment of Israel? Is it all performative?
I was in Israel in the 70s when Hamas locked Palestinian women and children in apartment buildings to make the body count higher. True story.
@@Lisa-pl6gv I won't deny the abominable behavior of some settlers, and the almost "manifest destiny" attitudes of some in the cabinet and the whole gush kattif nonsense. But Palestinians have been pawns in so many geopolitical games, including those played by their own supposed leadership, that they have been abused for several generations. Too many at the top want some sort of vindication MORE than they want peace and prosperity for the people they represent.
Is this man kiding me these kids were fighting the police.
why no mention of that wife of a known terrorist?
Entitled brats…
Have you objected to genocide anywhere?
@@sharonmassey2923 There is no genocide, just propaganda from Hamas, and misinformation. Israel is doing everything by the book and correctly, keeping civilian deaths to an absolute minimum. And the only way the Palestinian people will ever be free from Hamas is if Israel destroys Hamas. Then there can be elections and an actual government that represents the people can lead a free Palestinian nation state. Too bad the Palestinians didn't do that back in 1947 when they were given land for a Palestinian nation state along side the state of Israel.
@@sharonmassey2923 have you objected to the genocide that Hamas is committing against Israel & Gaza?
Or Hamas theft of humanitarian aid that Israel sent to Gaza?
Or Hamas use of human shields?
@@debbyrabold6069 What ON EARTH are you talking about? That's the kind of non-sense I'd expect from a man. From Wikipedia: "As of 24 April 2024, over 35,000 people (34,262 Palestinian and 1,410 Israeli) have been reported as killed in the Israel-Hamas war, including 97 journalists (92 Palestinian, 2 Israeli and 3 Lebanese) and over 224 humanitarian aid workers, including 179 employees of UNRWA."
"The vast majority of casualties have been in the Gaza Strip: over 34,262 have been killed, 70% of them are women and minors." And "...with thousands remaining unaccounted for, including those trapped under rubble."
In addition to your bizarre arithmetic, there are horrendous atrocities and horrendous hardships that you apparently know nothing about because MSNBC et al haven't reported on it, or you just don't care, such as little kids having to endure limb amputations without anesthetic. If there are any more of the horrific events that genocidal Netanyahu is responsible for that you'd like to know about, let me know, or you could search for non-corporatized, independent journalists, such as Mehdi Hasan, who was fired by MSNBC for telling too much truth.
Here's a question for you to ponder that many people have pondered and come to a plausible conclusion about: Why did it take Netanyahu several hours before he took any action on October 7th, leaving "his people" to flounder in terror for hours, apparently receiving news of the attack from a slow-flying carrier pigeon? If you'd like to know what that conclusion is, again, let me know and I'd be happy to share it with you.
This is a more balanced report than one earlier in the day. A teacher saying "Students were crying in despair" is not relevant to the issue at hand. These people (students and teachers) can afford to pay tuition at the school and/pr receive a fairly generous salary to be at in this instance Columbia. Despair is not a word to describe people who chose the actions they are taking. The people in actual despair are people in Gaza who are under threat of attack or the people in Israel who were targeted when the initial rockets entered Israel. If they really want to help, raise funds or get in kind donations which could be sent to people in Gaza. If they say that wouldn't work, have they really tried to improve the lives of others. Get on a bus to DC to protest in front of the Capitol or White House to have elected officials negotiate sending in aid. Or maybe contact some countries' missions at the UN to work on the issue to use their relations to accomplish their goals. Whether students are sad or teachers are in despair is irrelevant to the people of Gaza, Israel and Palestine who have had their personal safety effected by the actions of the leaders of their governments.
my question is.. what this university, in particular, can do to stop the war in Gaza??
Send the student protesters to Gaza for a cultural exchange program so they can fight?

Would the professor said it's garbage. Yes they've been having talks but unless the students get everything that they're demanding then they became violent. The university does not owe these students anything nor do they need to shift their fiscal and or financial responsibility or investments because a whole bunch of college students are protesting it. If they don't like it they can leave. They have the right to protest absolutely! But they must do it peacefully and recognized if the college decides not to give in to their demands then that is their answer. It's not against the law for a university not to meet their demands!

When students decided to protest the Vietnam war they were also subjected to abuse by the police and the leaders of the Universities....History proved they were right to protest, Vietnam was an embarrassment to the USA and it was later revealed the abuse the military inflicted across many provinces during the war....

No they aren't. First, don't act as if Palestinians didn't provoke Israel. Overlooking that, and they fact they are still holding people hostage, completely undermines the credibility of this narrative. Second, the protestors aren't simply protesting against involvement or support of Israel's conduct in Gaza. They are also chanting pro Palestinian /Hamas slogans, including some that call for the eradication of Israel.
At least be honest about it. And be honest about what the Palestinians did, and what they want to do, of they had the opportunity. We know because they say it, and they show it, at every opportunity. People need to stop acting like they are nothing but helpless oppressed victims

To get the university to stop funds to Israel. Same with the US government. They're funding genocide.
They want the university to divest from any Israeli financial investments.
They don't know. It's just an excuse to be terrible people and not go to school or work.
Exactly, the students need to get on a plane to the mid-East and support the Palestinian cause THERE. Otherwise, their actions are just "hormonal nosies." Disrupting universities, maybe those who disagree with the protest uncomfortable or threatened Is not the most intelligent response. I was told by a university student that a poli-sci prof promised extra credit for the class he taught if students in his classes help organize or attend the protests. Here's the real shocker: 40% OF ALL FEDERALLY FUNDED SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AWARDED TO FOREIGN STUDENTS.. That needs to stop; they may be university students, but they are also, still, easily manipulated. Scholarships for foreign students come from the pocket books of hard-working Americans that trudge off to some pretty exhausting and demeaning work environments 5 days or more a week just to put a roof over their heads and food on the table. These students are insulting everyday working Americans. Students blocking traffic on major U.S. bridges was a step too far...I have No respect for them anymore.

1) College has failed in their duty to protect theirstudents. 2) The faculty that called Riot Police to hurt their students should BE FIRED! !!
College should be ashamed of their staff THEIR FAILURES
These spoiled entitled brats need to disperse immediately.
Your post is like a masterclass in hyperbole. Perhaps these "students" should have simply went home. It's not as if they couldn't keep up their disingenuous demands another day and another time. No sympathy for the consequences they faced after extreme amounts of tolerance for their behavior.
Witnessing these students in tears as they are arrested for protesting against genocide is both heart-wrenching and inspiring. Remember back in 4th grade, when we first learned the solemn vow of "Never Again" in response to genocide? We've carried that lesson through life, reaffirmed by educators time and again. Now, faced with the reality of genocide, these brave young individuals are standing up to ensure we honor that pledge. Tears are a small price to pay for justice. We must stand united and resolute in our efforts to end genocide and hold those responsible accountable. Let's turn our collective outrage into action and ensure that we truly mean "Never Again."
"Never Again" in response to genocide." Means all peoples, regardless of their own irrational belief/faith.
@@thewefactor1yeah support the terrorist organisation.
@@tgm250 If you mean all belief/faith in the world? then where do you stand?
Witnessing mor*ns like yourself whinging about something you dreamed up in your own imaginations is simultaneously hilarious and shocking. How selfish can you be?
Building occupation is criminal action. Hate speech is criminal action. Listening to their professors, helps you realize who failed these students.
Where is the hate speech?
@@afridgetoofar1818inform yourself. There are plenty of sources on the internet
@@juelasejdo1706 ok, pease share
I find it extremely disturbing that some protesters display support for hamas terrorists, engage in violence, and harass Jewish students while the rest of them go along. None of this despicable behavior shows support for the Palestinian people. Why aren't the faculty helping them discern the difference?
Thank YOU NYPD for FINALLY disciplining those toddlers!!!
rex84 that is the situation understand policy
I’m guessing lot of these professors teach pretend majors
