Columbia is doing this because it wants to do it. They don't ever want another Palestinian rights protest and they hate unions. This allows them to make the draconian moves they've always desired deep down and say We were forced to, we had no choice. And that's why they say that, not because it's true, because they love the permission it gives.

Columbia is a garbage university where the exchange of ideas that are different from the prevailing anti Israel ideas are not tolerated. Anti semitism is rampant at the school. Mahmoud

Khalil is a terrorist supporter who should be thrown out of the country. The constitution and Bill of Rights do not apply green card holders. I’ve said this multiply times. Either you don’t know what genocide is or you’ve invented a new definition. All Hamas has to do is free the hostages, go into exile, and the war is over.

So a big talking guy comes over and takes a beanie off the top of your head while you and your friends are walking to class. He tells you you’ll get it back for your lunch money. You think it’s wrong, because the beanie and your lunch money are yours. Still, he holds it out of your reach. It’s getting close to time for the tardy bell and while your friends yell for him to give the hat back, they don’t want to be late for class. He doesn’t relent and the clock is ticking. You know if you don’t give up your lunch money, he’ll taunt you with the beanie in front of your remaining friends. The tardy bell rings. You give him your lunch money and he calls you a loser as he throws the beanie to the ground.
