Abstract

The article discusses the recent anti-Israel protests and occupations at Columbia University and other campuses. The encampment organizers demanded that the university divest from corporations profiting from Israeli apartheid and occupation, provide transparency for financial investments, and grant amnesty for disciplined or fired students and faculty involved in the movement for Palestinian liberation. The article highlights the presence of radical Islamists, antisemites, and revolutionary Marxists within the protest movement, as well as the involvement of unaffiliated professional activists. It also mentions the participation of uninformed protesters who lack knowledge about Israel and the conflict. The article suggests that while some protesters hate Jews, they see them as symbols of what they dislike about the West and view Israel as a colonial outpost of the United States.
