Recent events at Columbia University have reached a boiling point, demanding immediate action from the university administration.
Protests on campus have spiraled out of control, with students advocating for violence and terrorism against Israel under the guise of activism.
PROTESTORS SMASH WINDOWS, BREAK DOORS, BARRICADE HAMILTON HALL AT @COLUMBIA TONIGHT. “WE WILL NOT LEAVE NOT LEAVE UNTIL COLUMBIA COMPLETELY DIVESTS” https://t.co/rTQotOZ4l7

It is time for Columbia to take a stand against such hateful rhetoric and suspend those involved in promoting terrorism.
The chaos erupted when protestors seized Hamilton Hall, smashing windows and barricading doors.
One particularly alarming aspect of the protests is the display of a banner reading “Intifada” from the windows of Hamilton Hall.
This term represents a violent campaign of terrorism against Israeli civilians. By embracing such rhetoric, these protesters are not advocating for peace or justice but instead promoting violence and bloodshed.
This is not peaceful activism; it is a dangerous escalation promoting terror.
It is absolute anarchy @Columbia

The situation at Columbia is not isolated.
Similar protests have erupted at universities across the country, with students advocating for divestment from Israel and using inflammatory language against Jewish students.
This wave of anti-Israel sentiment is deeply concerning and must be addressed swiftly and decisively.
Columbia University must serve as an example of accountability and denounce these actions publicly.
The university cannot turn a blind eye to the glorification of terrorism happening on its campus.
Columbia must send a clear message that promoting violence and terrorism will not be tolerated on campus.
The protestors involved in promoting terrorism must face consequences for their actions, including suspension from the university.
Act now and demand Columbia University to suspend the protesters promoting terrorism on its campus.
Suspending those involved in the protests is the first step towards restoring peace and civility.
ACT NOW to combat antisemitism at Columbia University and ensure a safe and welcoming environment for all.

Subject: Demand for Suspension of Protestors Promoting Terrorism
Dear Student Affairs,
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the recent protests on campus advocating for violence and terrorism against Israel. The actions of the protestors, including seizing Hamilton Hall and promoting slogans like “INTIFADA,” are unacceptable and create a hostile environment for students and faculty.
It is imperative that immediate action be taken to address this situation and hold those responsible accountable for their actions. I urge you to take decisive measures, including the suspension of the protesters promoting terrorism, to ensure the safety of students, faculty, and staff.
Columbia University must denounce the glorification of terrorism happening on its campus and reaffirm its commitment to fostering a safe and inclusive environment for all members of the community. Failure to take action sends a dangerous message and puts the entire campus at risk.
I implore you to prioritize the safety and well-being of the Columbia University community and take swift and decisive action to address this urgent matter.
Sincerely,
