Columbia University protests: Crowds demand school cut ties with Israel
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 апр 2024
- Hundreds of students at Columbia University in New York have gathered to call on the school to cut ties with Israel.
The university's president is appearing before a Congressional committee - to respond to allegations of anti-Semitism on campus.
Since Israel's war on Gaza began in October, there've been regular protests at American universities condemning the war.
Students who support Palestinians say they've been disproportionately targeted and censored by campus officials.
Al Jazeera's Kristen Saloomey spoke with one of them at the Columbia University protest.

Columbia U has been known for strong ( and sometimes , unpopular) political protests that often go against the big money that often backs the university.
I was there in the 1980s as a student who got involved with the anti-apartheid protests. My dorm master came to me on my graduation day and informed me of the fact that the FBI came through and asked her questions about me. She was shown photos they had taken at the protest. We had a great laugh because she told them she had never seen me before and didn't know anything. Lol!
Marg Bar Palestine.
the younger generation is inheriting this world and look at it entirely different - things will change and the sooner the better for world peace -
This is one of the reasons why I love Americans. ✊
@@Thiscannotbetruebutitis so u support the chants “ marg bar America “ ?
Marg bar Israel Marg bar America
Long live humanity ❤
Live long Island
Long live Israel 🇮🇱
they made their own little concentration camp on the campus, thats hilarious. and still americans refuse to wake up
Most Americans have woken up to the Gaza cc camp but there are still some rac1sts g3n0cide deniers like you
I love them. They are so clever!
lol- most of us are and have been awake- and we’re here to say that Holocaust subversion is in fact antisemitic. It’s just virtue signaling.
talking about Americans who refuse to wake up...have you heard about the G@z@ cc camp?

Oh shut up
Sheer Anti-semitism

It's anti-Satanism.

Proud of the students ❤. There is not an antisemitic bone in the bodies of those who support Palestinian freedom. We are standing on the right side of history.
Many have said that, standing on the right side of history- also dictators.

Thank you al jazeera only real News I trust greetings from the netherlands please let this stay
French news is pretty good as well, even PBS is starting to fold and becoming conservative
@@aleejones7508 are they fair when News about israil-hamas conflict?
So where's the democracy, America? Why should these students be penalized, it's their freedom of speech, isn't it? USA is going around the world promoting democracy, freedom of speech and humanitarian rights but they don't practice what they preach.
When they chant “ Mag Bar America. “
Then it’s not free speech.
That’s a call to actions.

@@battles146it’s funny how these same students cheered and facilitated the censorship and arrest of conservatives on campus.
Now they want the world to feel sorry for them because what they advocated for others is happening to them now,
Amerika killed whole nations WHEN They were a dictatorial OR communism or taliban etc etc etc and know They Tell us we are CRAZY WHEN its NOT democratic for them I say its dictators etc etc
Why isn't the US media telling us why they are protesting? They call them pro Hanas protesters, that's repulsive.
Because the protesting all about getting personer out of jail in israel it a hamass they support hamass
Bravo to all ❤
Make the voices count at the ballot box!
Oh we will. article in the guardian today said it best. doesnt matter if trump is worse. this is a red line. biden is disqualified.
Election Integrity is key. Trumps working overtime on it
But doesn't every candidate support Israel? How do we (Americans) make change by voting?
@eo177 I am Australian. Yeah, it appears both Biden and Trump do support Israel. I am not sure what you could do? For me, next election, (Australia> local, state or federal) I participate in, I am voting for someone that did not, has not shown support for Israel in this conflict..
Vote for Dr Cornel West. The only candidate with sound morals
Great to see the students stand against genocide.
There is no genocide

It's so unfair that Students have to hide their Faces for Standing up for Justice ⚖ FREEDOM FOR PALESTINE 🇵🇸 BLESS all these young people with a loving Heart. ❤

Huge respect to these students !! Free Palestine 🇵🇸
Palestine was free before 10.7, free enough to paraglide into a peace festival & turn it into their own gang-rape-murder-massacre fantasy.
Rape is not resistance. Kidnapping babies & infants is not resistance.

Ms . Sarah yonees, so do you consider hamas as terrorist or not???
This antisemitism word should be banned in the world, it has no meaning and no basis or reference left.
How dare the local laws act against the well wishes of the students of this University.
All students should go on a strike and walk out of the classrooms.
Till the creators of the antisemitism propaganda are quiet.
I fail to understand that why all western media, western governments and people involved in American politics, would support a Genocide. It is just something that one cannot understand.
Do these individuals have no family ties or respect for humanity??
Huge respect to all those standing up against cruelty and 0ccu pat1on!
Prior to the Oct 7th hamas terrorist attack, Gaza hadn't been occupied by a single Israeli for 18 years, kid.
@@johnsmith7140 Boy, you sure haven't any knowledge of what has been going on....as for "Kid"....Who are you and what did you get your lack of knowledge...Over 4000 people were being imprisoned, many were children, and how much land was stolen by Israel, Can bet you have never left the safety of your cave....Get your facts straight , little boy
@@johnsmith7140Gaza has been starved, parched and locked down by an illegal israeli blockade by land, air and sea for over 15 years.
Anti Zionism is not Anti Semitism
95% of Jews are Zionists - add another 700 million Evangelicals😂
In Germany anti-Zionism is a crime. It is considered the same as antisemitism. I can only hope that this current conflict will lead to public discussion of these terms so that freedom of speech, respectful debate, and democracy are not harmed as they are being harmed currently.
Behold the most despised people in America
YES STUDENTS . FREEDOM IF SPEECH. ITS THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE GENOCIDE.
what genocide did you see them all at the ocean today enjoying themselves
there's no genocide@gloriasponner654
its a minority
@@esestlloco it's a tragedy/minority
Correct - the ACTUAL genocides - where the F were you standing up against :
Assad - 600 000 Syrian civilians ( many with poison gas );
al Bashir - 230 000 Darfuri civilians ??
Would you like more examples of REAL genocide??
' Crowds ' 🤣🤣
Israel is isolating itself from the international community
Blah blah blah
No, just the ghosts!
Only in ur head
90 percent of the world stand with Israel..only few idiots support hamas
Absolutely!
The problem I have with all this is the anti American protesters that take advantage of all the freedoms this country gives them and then bash the very country that gives it to them. (Hypocrites) The wonderful thing about America is not only do they have the freedom to peacefully protest, but they also have the freedom to leave anytime.
Hot take..now back to eating bon bon and smelling farts for you
🎯
You have a lot of problems.🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
@mccopz I agree! Also, when I was in college, I was paid to study, not protest. They should protest off campus and on their own time.
Bigup to the protesters 🇵🇸✌🏻 from UK
It is a sad day indeed. These students are our future and they have all rights in this world to think freely. They should have all the opportunities to speak what they feel is right or wrong. Who are we to ask them to do otherwise.
The TRUTH MAJORITY GLOBALLY TO ALL.. PALESTINE INDEPENDENCE 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
NO MORE LIES FROM ISRAEL
The Arab world hates Palestinians
No more lies from doro mohammadaiman@doromohammadaiman3447
Gaza was independent for 20 years so why they killed 1500 Israelis in their homes and kidnapped our children?
Bunch of hooligans.
Freedom fighters with a moral compass.🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
❤️🙏❤️
This student is exceptionally well-spoken.
Who is this person? We'd like to speak with her in person!
Dear protesters, don't you have a word or a shout for Mobina Rostami, the athlete of the Iranian women's national volleyball team, who disappeared after publishing the following words on Instagram: “As an iranian, I am really ashamed for this incident, but you should know that the people of Iran love Israel and hate the islamic Republic.” Mobina wrote these words immediately after Iran's attack on Israel.
Informative student perspective - however, the government agencies can and will identify you via your voice
You are right. They will track you down. It is much easier for them to do now, more than ever.
The future will be bright with Columbia university students ❤

I am happy to see Al Jazeera here. People need to know that this is a popular sentiment. We do not want to support genocide with our money

If you will not show your face, then I believe you could be Hamas.
they are a menace to the country some rebels sure you have to hide your face
I think they should live in Palestine or Iran for a few months, but something tells me they will want to come back to live with Americans.
Good on those students!
The Left hates this but likewise Columbia students hate the way they're used and abused by thr gov't. Now it's home to Victoria Nuland and Hillary Clinton. Sickening!
We support you many people support you
Imagine being, and then asking for more.

Eviction... huh, how interesting that the Columbia administration would choose that tactic. What does it remind me of? I'll think of it...
loss of free speech? Money talks? Red China? Putin's Russia?
And they gave them 24 hours. That's exactly what I was thinking too

Do you understand the rise of a moment and how it starts.....Try listen to Jackson Browne, "Lives in the Balance", or even "Masters of War" by Bob Zimmermen, for a start, than try Bruce Cockburn....I know that you couldn't comprehend the writings of an intellectual like Norm Chomsky or follow the history of the 1894 meeting in Zurich when Zionism was created and understand the subtleties of the political history of it, but maybe music can warm your "cold little heart"
"socially progressive", together with an ideological tirade and slogans- sounds like taken from a textbook or a manifesto. Hilarious. The interviewer should have asked her to explain her ideology in real terms- if only to satisfy my personal curiosity....
Ban AIPAC and dual citizenships. That will solve the problem.🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Johnnie boy, I've done my homework for over seventy years. Israel is still as satanic as they were two thousand years ago.
I heard about an Iranian woman waiting to be executed for sharing an opinion about h@mas.
IDF coined world's most lgbtq- military friendly - transitional surgeries in all.
And I think summertime in Tel Aviv is quite the homosexual destination. Big party town for the lgbtq people.
American women and LGBTQ wouldn't last seconds in a Muslim country

Always wear the weapon of Anti-Semitism. Even though what is criticized is the person or group who does wrong, not race or religion. It turns out that there are still people who think wrongly.
Now biden won't forgive your little student loan again. 😂
What a stupid comment....Make sure you take your horse Enemas because there will be no doctors left to treat you because we have stopped supporting college trained careers. Every country in the world that is considered and 1st and 2nd world nation has free college.....And why should kids have to get loans, why didn't their parents save for this

Go to palestine and protest there
why? literally 0 reason for them to do it there.
