- University of Washington President Ana Mari Cauce is calling on a pro-Palestinian student encampment to be dismantled after multiple buildings on the Seattle campus were tagged with what she called "offensive graffiti."
Some of the graffiti was "quite clearly both antisemitic and violent," according to a message from Cauce.
"Much to my dismay, given the relatively cordial tone of many of our discussions, the [encampment] representatives also said the new graffiti is an intentional escalation to compel the University to agree to their demands," Cauce wrote.
Representatives inside the encampment's designated media tent told KING 5 they weren't ready to comment but would likely have a statement on Thursday.

That's just not okay.
Absolutely Not.
It would be one thing if they were just peacefully protesting against war in general, but many of them are radicalized and being abusive and destructive.
God help us if they are destructive, could you imagine living in a destructive environment? My pearls are clutched
@@williamcondon7729UW is a tax funded school, so it's my school. The destruction needs to stop.
@@DemonDog444 you fund things knowing that you trust administrators to make decisions for you, you aren’t qualified to speak on these issues or make these determinations about campus protest.
@@williamcondon7729Oh I am absolutely qualified to speak on anything I choose. The students responsible for this mess should be expelled, lose all financial aid, be immediately forced to payback all loans and pay for damage. THEN because of the schools inaction, they should lose all fed funding
@@DemonDog444 ya, you clearly don’t understand how any of this works. The person screaming about how they are qualified and understand everything is usually the person who knows the least. They aren’t the first people to do this and they won’t be the last, you just think your an expert now because you disagree with them. There is a normal process for this, let it work itself out. You just don’t want the people who disagree with you to feel like they can express their opinion because the points they are making make sense and you would rather they be intimidated to not speak at all.
Play stupid games and get stupid prizes. Expell them from University and Trespass and charge them..... at least they will have learnt one lesson at school.
Notice how you can copy and paste this onto any campus protest.
Vast majority are not students
@@janesmith716 they have said that about every student protest.
@@williamcondon7729but it back it is actually true based on arrests and interviews around the country but maybe you just don't believe that?
This is getting out of hand!
Wait, so it's okay to camp in tents on the UW campus now!?
It seems to be okay to camp everywhere else in Seattle, so why not?
Ask the 5000 fenty addicted tent dwellers in Seattle, they seem to know the camping laws very well
okay if you are anti fa and pro hamas, try do a pro trump rally there, you'll be arrested in a nano second.
@@uoohknk6881you can thank Martin v. City of Boise, a 2019 case wherein the glorious 9nth circuit court asserted public camping is a right.
Yeah it took the graffiti to make the Jews feel uncomfortable.
Oh and whether the university calls it an assault re the phone, no one cares, the law considers it assault.
I do find it sad that their line in the sand was vandalism
Ever heard of Agent Provocateurs? Inform yourselves. You and your tax dollars 💰💰💰 are being played.
a bit to late. we know where the UW stands
Agreed, but I stand for proper grammar *too* not “to”.
and in similar vein, I call putin to retreat from ukraine, that should do the job.
FACTS: The Library of Alexandria was destroyed immediately upon the Muslim conquest, supported by a statement attributed to Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab: "If what is written contradicts the Quran, then it deserves to be burned." The same thing happened in India and Egypt.
I think everyone in Seattle should know by now that any form of encampment (outside of permitted, actual campgrounds) never ends well. You have to nip all encampments in the bud early before they fester.
Ha, see Martin v. City of Boise. It’s a 2019 9nth circuit opinion that lead to public encampments being legal.
There’s a lot of paid provocateurs, some of them just lost their brains.
What makes you believe that "there's a lot of paid provocateurs"? Is it that you simply don't want to admit that many of the protestors are actually antisemitic young adults from upper middle class homes that have had a life of privilege, some may even say they have been spoiled. Also, why do you believe "some of them have just lost their minds"? The reality is they may just be stupid, American hating, privileged suburban young men and women. There is no reason to act like they have a mental disorder when the answer may be they are simply stupid and entitled.
Have you ever thought the reason why the UW has been slow to act is due to the fact that the well to do parents would be raising hell if their little Johnny or Suzie was thrown out of school. After all these anti-Semites believe they will be our future leaders.
Kejriwal is Jewish?
If damaging property with graffiti is crossing the line, what is dropping many bombs on many properties?
Any lines crossed when people do that?
Quite the equivocation there
When this person calls for accountability for the escalation of property damage done by the graffiti, is it safe to presume they are not a bigoted hypocrite and will support a proportional call for accountability for the property damage done in Gaza by Israel? How harsh of a punishment does she believe is correct for 10k children murdered vis-a-vis her outrage at graffiti and buildings "harmed?"
No matter what happens in other countries, you don't have the right to intimidate your neighbors here in the USA over it. That's what that graffiti was about, and that's why it's criminal.
@@punchkitten874 except this position of being intimidated has been used by the oppressing majority against those who speak out against bigotry and abuse throughout the years. This argument was made against Black activists, queer activists, trans activists, etc. It is always the same, do only the peaceful things that don't bother us the oppressors that never work so we can keep ignoring you and using the status quo to stay in power and keep you under our jackboot. This is always the way and repeats and repeats and repeats, so anyone who has hated slavery and the ghetto knows this is a lie used by the evil against the oppressed and the victims of their power fantasy.
When your spoon-fed understanding of the world exposes your ignorance 🙄
u r either pro ccp shill or pro hamas.
What if they are a bigoted hypocrite? What then?
