Before the matters settles too much, let’s discuss the recent campus protests over Gaza. Specifically, the one that is not like the others, at Columbia University.
I found this on Telegram:

Absolutely WILD article from Politico this morning, admitting the Pro-Palestine protests are funded by Deep State mega-donors:
-Gates
-Soros
-Rockefeller
-PritzkerThe same people behind BLM are funding these protests, as we all suspected.
But why are the MSM admitting it? 🤔

If you don’t understand that this conflict is Yid-on-Yid, then you’ll never figure it out.
I’ve already documented how what’s happening re Israel, is Netanyahu and Hamas acting together to achieve the Israeli Zionist agenda against the interests of secular, international Judaism. The campus protests are an extension of that situation… basically, a proxy civil war. Which is why many Jews, specifically the American Marxist ones today, are acting pro-Palestinian.
Columbia University protests: A timeline of how we got here

By Michael Stallone and Adeja Shivonne, Updated 6 May 2024
It's been nearly two weeks since dozens of students supporting Palestinians at Columbia University staged a "Gaza Solidarity Encampment" on the NYC campus.
In a tweet posted on "X" on April 17, Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine – an account with over 14,000 followers – said, "As of 4 AM this morning, Columbia University students have occupied the center of campus, launching our Gaza Solidarity Encampment. We demand divestment and an end to Columbia’s complicity in genocide."
If I remember my college days, students don’t do squat at 4am.
April 17: University president testifies before Congress
Four months after a contentious congressional hearing led to the resignations of two Ivy League presidents, Columbia University President Nemat Shafik appeared before the same committee and unequivocally denounced antisemitism on her campus, rebutting claims that she has allowed Columbia to become a hotbed of hatred.
U.Penn President Liz Magill resigned under heavy pressure from congressmen and megadonors. Harvard President Claudine Gay refused to resign, but a couple weeks later resigned during an ((unrelated)) plagiarism scandal.
Four months after they were removed by the same House Education Commie, and within a few hours of the Columbia student protest annouced at 4am, President Shafik got grilled before them about her loyalties.

Columbia University President: What I Plan to Tell Congress Tomorrow
h ttps://president.columbia.edu/news/columbia-university-president-what-i-plan-tell-congress-tomorrow
16 April 2024
Last December, three of my peers testified before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce about antisemitism on university campuses. Tomorrow I will have the opportunity to appear before the same committee and share what we have learned as we battle this ancient hatred at Columbia University…
First, it is important to recognize that, by and large, we have not been dealing with two “warring camps” in this debate. Contrary to the depiction we have seen on social media, the most of people protesting do so from a place of genuine political disagreement, not from personal hatred or bias or support for terrorism. Their passion, as long as it doesn’t cross the line into threats, discrimination or harassment, should be protected speech on our campus, especially if it reflects diplomatic, political, historical or policy beliefs. Indeed, debating these kinds of issues, even though they may be discomforting to some, is an essential part of what a university should be about.
…Calling for the genocide of a people—whether they are Israelis or Palestinians, Jews, Muslims or anyone else—has no place in a university community.
Second, while there may be some easy cases, drawing the line between permissible and impermissible campus speech is enormously difficult…
In thinking about these boundaries of permissible speech, one idea that we have adopted at Columbia is to define a designated space for protests.
Third, it is essential to remember that universities and their presidents aren’t politicians. To the extent that we are present in the public conversation, it should be more as constructive facilitators, not commentators. My own view is that official university statements should be limited to issues that speak directly to life on campus. The university should return to its core mission of fostering a range of perspectives and the scholarship, discoveries and good citizenship that flow from it. At the same time, students and faculty should feel unconstrained in developing their own opinions.
Fourth, universities are communities, and we should become models for how people grow and thrive when they live side by side with others who are different.
Diversity will work THIS time! just like Communism.
End segue
Between make this statement in the afternoon and showing up to testify in the morning, at 4am, something got tweeted… I requote from above:
"As of 4 AM this morning, Columbia University students have occupied the center of campus…
Not a designated space for protesting.
“…launching our Gaza Solidarity Encampment….”
“You are now dealing with a warring faction.”
We demand divestment and an end to Columbia’s complicity in genocide."
“This is about genocide.”
When you cross-reference the boldfaced parts of what President Shafik had just said, with what that X account announced at a time which didn’t allow for investigation or response, it becomes clear that the House Education Committee benefitted greatly from that curiously timed announcement when it came to threatpointing Shafik.
April 17: Students stage 'Gaza Solidarity Encampment'
At the same time, dozens of students began to stage a "Gaza Solidarity Encampment" on the university campus.
SkyFOX was over the scene around 10 a.m. Organizers included two groups that Columbia previously suspended for unauthorized protests: Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace.
TWO organizations with the same mission, in the same place, at the same time?
That’s the same playbook as Hezbollah/Hamas. Hezbollah is the real pro-Gaza faction; Haman, oops, Hamas is the Mossad-operated rival whose purpose is to disrupt any peace effort so the IDF always has an excuse to reject a two-state solution.
I say it again: October 7 was orchestrated by Prime Minister Netanyahu, using Hamas as his cats-paw, in order to consolidate power after his coup against the Israeli high court and repay his Zionist allies by continuing their ethnic cleansing agenda in Gaza.
Was the real protest group at Columbia, the Jewish Voice for Peace, while the other one postured as vigilante for Israel’s political convenience just in time for that Congressional hearing? Just looking at the titles, “Voice For Peace” is much milder optics than “Justice In Palestine”.
Or did somebody get access to that account, who wasn’t authorized to make a statement?
April 18: NYPD clears out protesters, arrest dozens
The NYPD arrested more than 100 demonstrators, and removed an encampment.
Several students involved in the protest said they also were suspended from Columbia and Barnard College, including Isra Hirsi, who is the daughter of Democratic U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar.
That there, could be the reason why the police hammered Columbia’s protesters so quickly and completely: their secret orders were to discredit Rep. Omar, one of the loudest anti-Israel voices in Congress, by arresting her daughter.
Who needed arresting, granted, but the timing stinks.
Police said 108 people, including Hirsi, were charged with trespassing at the private Ivy League institution. Two people were also charged with obstructing government administration.
NYC Mayor Eric Adams said the city was asked in writing by university officials to remove the encampment.
I checked whether it was Shafik herself who wrote that, or a flunky who might have done so without orders, but she took credit for the request. NYT and WaPo have cited her decision to immediately call in the police, with her being allowed to stay as President.
One wonders about her other jobs, in particular, being on the board of directors of the Gates Foundation and a former VP of World Bank. It’s a small world at the top.
April 19: NYPD attempts to clear more demonstrators
Several students and pro-Palestinian demonstrators took to the streets again Friday. NYPD officers were seen trying to clear protestors near Frederick Douglass Boulevard. Police also barricaded areas outside the campus in Morningside Heights.
The Soros faction tried protesting off-campus. It didn’t work.
April 21: University rabbi urges Jewish students to go home
Columbia University Rabbi urged Jewish students to go home due to "extreme antisemitism and anarchy".
Rabbi Elie Buechler told FOX 5 NY he sent a letter to students via WhatsApp stating, "It deeply pains me to say that I would strongly recommend you return home as soon as possible and remain home until the reality in and around campus has dramatically improved. It is not our job as Jews to ensure our own safety on campus.* No one should have to endure this level of hatred, let alone at school."
There was no such threat, at least, no dead Jews or… huh, the NYPD went riot-cop on Kommies across the nation, and so far as the headlines have said, not a single one got gassed or beaten. Remarkable.
So, Rabbi was manufacturing evidence with which to claim that students’ lives were in danger; again, one of Shafik’s talking points. The most likely motive here was that Shafik’s loyalty was not yet certain, but others are possible. April 21st was also the day before Passover and the day Biden released a statement promising the American government would not tolerate American opposition to Israel’s military operations. Also, New York Mayor Eric Adams promised additional police at campus that evening.
April 24: Speaker Johnson calls for Columbia president's resignation amid protests
House Speaker Mike Johnson spoke around 3:45 p.m. on Wednesday and called for the Columbia University president to resign. "The cherished traditions of this university are being overtaken," Johnson said.
Johnson was a nobody when he got elevated to the Speaker’s chair. Now he’s proven himself to be a Zionist. No surprise considering his lukewarm Christian background, but good to know.
The protests droned on. Negotiations between the administration and squatters continued until an impasse was announced on April 29. At which time, Shafik issued a statement…
h ttps://president.columbia.edu/news/statement-columbia-university-president-minouche-shafik-4-29
For all of the reasons above, we urge those in the encampment to voluntarily disperse. We are consulting with a broader group in our community to explore alternative internal options to end this crisis as soon as possible. We will continue to update the community with new developments.
…but that’s NOT what her administration said.
Campus Update for April 29, 2024 (5:30 p.m. ET)
h ttps://communications.news.columbia.edu/news/campus-updates
A press briefing by Ben Chang, vice president of Communications at Columbia University.
This morning, President Shafik released a statement for the University community on the next phase of our efforts to ensure safety and order on our campus. In this message, President Shafik reaffirmed our core principles that have underpinned our approach throughout these events…
Which he cites, but he doesn’t cite her call for voluntary dispersal or alternative options. Instead…
For all of those reasons, we issued notices this morning to all at the encampment that they will be suspended if they do not leave by 2 p.m. Protesters were informed that their participation in the encampment violates numerous University policies.
“Hey boss, just so you know, I issued an ultimatum to the encampment this morning, to be gone by 2pm, and it’s now 5pm. Ohhh, yeah, I guess you did say something about still hoping for a peaceful, internal resolution. Oh, well. The riot police are holding on Line 1, asking your approval for deployment. Unless you’d rather admit you cannot control your own administration?
“Time to choose sides.”
[Shafik reluctantly picks up Line 1.]
“[Line 2] She did it, Representative! Push it now now now!”
h ttps://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-resolution/1173/all-actions
H.Res.1173 - Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 615) to prohibit the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture from prohibiting the use of lead ammunition or tackle on certain Federal land or water under the jurisdiction of blah blah blah…
…providing for consideration of the bill to ratify and approve all authorizations, permits, verifications, extensions, biological opinions, incidental take statements, and any other approvals or orders issued pursuant to Federal law necessary for the establishment and administration of the Coastal Plain oil and gas leasing program…
…blah blah…
…and provide for… a definition of antisemitism set forth by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance for the enforcement of Federal antidiscrimination laws concerning education programs or activities, and for other purposes.
...bl-ut-oh.
H.1173 was an in-house paperpushing exercise of the House Rules Committee… that got slightly amended outside working hours… and this is the result:
The Antisemitism Act, formally known as HR 6090.
h ttps://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/6090/all-actions?s=1&r=3&q=%7B"search"%3A"antisemitism+awareness"%7D
10/26/2023 Introduced in House
10/26/2023 Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
Where it was buried forever… until…
04/29/2024-8:25pm Rules Committee Resolution H. Res. 1173 Reported to House.
…three hours after Columbia’s Ben Chang announced Columbia’s ultimatum, and simultaneously, the expiration of that ultimatum. You know hanky panky is about, when the Congressional Record shifts to by-the-minute bill tracking.
04/30/2024-12:46pm Rule H. Res. 1173 passed House.
I doubt any Representative read H.1173 one final time that morning, so nobody knew about that little, last-night, late-night addition until after they agreed to it… to bring HR 6090 out of committee.
The worm has turned, ye plotters of Obamacare!
05/01/2024-1:15pm DEBATE - The House proceeded with one hour of debate on H.R. 6090.
I can’t even research the political maneuverings that are summarized at the link. This here was surely a stalling tactic, which lasted all of two hours:
05/01/2024-2:05pm POSTPONED PROCEEDINGS - Pursuant to clause 1(c) of rule XIX, further proceedings on H.R. 6090 are postponed.
05/01/2024-4:18pm Pursuant to clause 1(c) of rule XIX, the House resumed consideration on H.R. 6090.
And here is the result:
05/01/2024-4:55pm On passage Passed by the Yeas and Nays: 320 - 91 (Roll no. 172).
That’s right, HR 6090 had been introduced three weeks after the Oct 7 attack… last year… and leveraged out of the Judiciary Committee, by the Rules Committee, only at 8:30pm the day before the vote on the vote was voted on and passed. After just three hours of debate.
While in the background, the news media were screaming about the police assault at Columbia University’s Hamilton Hall…
…Which is the same tactic that was used on President Shafik when she first testified on April 17. Same m.o., same perps.

Campus Update for April 30, 2024 (8 a.m. EST)
From Ben Chang, University spokesperson:
Early this morning, a group of protesters occupied Hamilton Hall on the Morningside campus of Columbia University.
The safety of every single member of this community is paramount.
The first step we have taken… we have asked members of the University community who can avoid coming to the Morningside campus to do so
Campus Update for April 30, 2024 (9 a.m. EST)
Media access to campus is suspended. Campus is accessible only to CUID-holders and essential personnel as a safety measure and that includes media.
Media blackout is a common IDF tactic in Gaza. An unconfirmed 140 independent journalists have been assassinated in Gaza over the past year. Recently, all of Al Jazeera’s offices in Israel were closed by the Israeli government.
Campus Update for April 30, 2024 (12:55 p.m. ET)
From University Spokesperson Ben Chang:
We regret that protesters have chosen to escalate the situation through their actions…
How convenient that they waited for the media blackout, before escalating.
Campus Update for April 30, 2024 (3:40 p.m. ET)
We know many members of the press are trying to gain access to Columbia's Morningside campus. Because of serious public safety concerns, we had to limit access this afternoon.
Why don’t you want them pictured being violent and hateful? Wouldn’t that help YOUR cause?
Columbia Updates for April 30, 2024 (5:40 p.m. ET)
A press briefing by Ben Chang, vice president of communications.
We know many members of the press are trying to gain access to Columbia's Morningside campus. Because of serious public safety concerns, we had to limit access this afternoon.
No, that’s not a double-post.
Campus Update for April 30, 2024 (9:26 p.m. ET)
From a university spokesman:
This is the first time that Ben Chang isn’t specifically named.
A little after 9 p.m. this evening, the NYPD arrived on campus at the University’s request. This decision was made to restore safety and order to our community.
We regret that protesters have chosen to escalate the situation through their actions. After the University learned overnight that Hamilton Hall had been occupied, vandalized, and blockaded, we were left with no choice.
Because barricaded vandals are a clear and present danger to the general public outside a college campus-sized police cordon?
Columbia public safety personnel were forced out of the building, and a member of our facilities team was threatened. We will not risk the safety of our community or the potential for further escalation.
Ahh, because THAT happened. How violent.
Early Tuesday, [roughly when we imposed the media blackout,] protesters chose to escalate to an alarming and untenable situation—including by vandalizing property, breaking doors and windows, blockading entrances, and forcing our facilities and public safety workers out—and we are responding appropriately as we have long made clear we would. The safety of our community, especially our students, remains our top priority.
That’s what the IDF said when it opened fire on a Palestinian bread line.
Within 24 hours, with the news media full of riot cops storming a building full of violent antisemites waving the Palestinian flag, was when HR 6090 got debated and passed.
Campus Update for May 1, 2024 (11:15 a.m. ET)
This morning, President Shafik sent a message to the Columbia community about last night’s decision to ask the NYPD to enter campus.
“… Because my first responsibility is safety, with the support of the University’s Trustees, I made the decision to ask the New York City Police Department to intervene to end the occupation of Hamilton Hall and dismantle the main encampment along with a new, smaller encampment. These actions were completed Tuesday night, and I thank the NYPD for their incredible professionalism and support. …
I don’t know what happened there… media blackout… but I have a concern: might the suspects arrested at the Hamilton Hall encampment actually have been “sourced“ from a different and nonviolent encampment? Because that might have allowed some of the Hamilton Hall perps to sneak away, without a headcount detecting their absence.
Everything about the Columbia incident is astonishingly convenient timing for consolidation of Israeli control of the United States, far more so than any other Palestinian protest to date.

Department of Education opens Title VI investigation into Columbia following complaint of anti-Palestinian discrimination

2 May 2024
The launch of the investigation came two days after the Tuesday police sweep—authorized by University President Minouche Shafik—of occupied Hamilton Hall, which resulted in over 100 arrests. New York Police Department officers pushed protesters to the ground, threw one down the stairs, and utilized stun grenades upon entry to Hamilton roughly 22 hours after the occupation began.
The investigation is the third that the department has opened into Columbia since November 2023.
The April 25 complaint followed Shafik’s authorization of the April 18 police sweep of the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment,” which resulted in the arrests of 108 demonstrators.
The Department of Education opened another investigation into Columbia on April 23, according to the Office of Civil Rights’ website. The nature of the complaint is unknown.
How prompt the Dept. of Education has been, to champion the plight of Palestinian students in America! I’m not suspicious at all!
The United States government is near collapse. The proxy civil war in the Levant has become a proxy civil war here, and like everybody else, the American Golem cannot serve two masters.
National File has this report for additional reading on Israeli infiltration of American government.
