From the Washington Free Beacon: Several Columbia University student activists chained themselves to a school gate Wednesday afternoon, chanting “globalize the intifada” as prospective students walked by.
The four unmasked protesters secured to the St. Paul’s Chapel gate, which serves as a campus entrance, were joined by additional students behind them, wearing masks and holding signs that read “Pigs aren’t kosher,” “Israel bombs, Columbia pays,” and “ICE off campus.” The group assembled to demand the names of the trustees who “collaborated” with the Trump administration, resulting in the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil.
As a group of prospective students and their families passed by, the anti-Israel agitators chanted, “There is only one solution, intifada revolution,” and “Intifada, intifada, globalize the intifada.”
Columbia’s Public Safety removed the chains after several hours and escorted the activists through the gate, where they continued their protest. Later in the evening, Public Safety removed a second group that had chained themselves to the gate.
