Columbia Student Goes Off On Anti-Israel Protesters: 'Egregiously Pro-Terror'
All across the United States, college campuses are being swarmed by anti-Israel, anti-American, pro-Hamas protesters with nothing better to do than camp on private property to try and piss everyone else off. One of the biggest examples is happening at Columbia University.
A Jewish student from Columbia joined Fox News' Jesse Watters on Monday night, along with her father, and expressed her utter disappointment, anger and frustration with her university.
"I worked my entire life to get into Columbia," she told the Fox News host. "I got straight A's my entire college career, and now I don't even want to walk in my graduation because I know that my administration has proven time and time again for the last seven months … [that it] refuses to protect Jewish students and students who are just regular Americans who just want to go to class."
That's an important point to make here. Of course, Jewish students are the most affected by all of this protesting and many feel unsafe on their own campuses. But these protests affect all students.
Some colleges, like UCLA, have moved to all remote classes because of protests. Imagine all the normal, hard-working college students spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to learn remotely. That's completely unfair to them, as well.

Her father added that his daughter, and all of those normal, law-abiding students, are going to face struggles post-graduation thanks to the actions of these lunatics.
"Anyone who's going to look at her resume is going to see Columbia University at the top of it," he said. "Are they really going to want to delve into whether she was one of the radicalized students who no one will want to hire, and no one will want to let into their graduate school to do the same thing at their school?
"That's the real fear for me, is I've set her up with a degree and paid very handsomely for her degree that will hurt her instead of helping her."
She finds herself in the boat along with many other students, which is unfortunate. But it speaks to the disintegration of the Ivy League. No parents should sign up to send their kids to these institutions.
The student pointed out that the left-wing media narrative, which seeks to paint these protesters as "anti-war," are completely off-base.
"On October 12th, five days after the massacre of innocent Israeli and American citizens in Israel, hundreds of students on my campus were protesting in support of Hamas before Israel ever engaged in a counteroffensive to defend the country," she said.

"It was never about Palestinian civilians, as they say. They paint their nails for Palestine in the encampment tents. It's about finding some kind of community … and spreading terrorism across the country that's purely anti-Semitic, anti-Israel and anti-American," she added.
"Every pro-Israeli protest, we have American and Israeli flags and these terror supporters rip them from our hands, step on them and set them on fire."
Burning the American flag certainly doesn't have anything to do with Palestine. They are saying the quiet part out loud. This isn't about the Middle East. It's about people who truly hate the United States and Western Civilization.
"[I've seen] Hamas flags, Hamas symbols, ISIS symbols, [and] Nazi symbols. They are egregiously pro-terror," the student said. "I'm a big believer in let someone show you who they are and believe them."
Believe them, indeed.
