> Pro-Palestinian student protesters at Columbia University early Tuesday charged the same campus building that students advocating for racial justice occupied in the 1960s, a significant escalation at the elite institution that launched dozens of campus demonstrations across the world.
> “We will not leave until Columbia meets every one of our demands,” one of the students yelled from a balcony window. The demands include university divestment from Israel, disclosure of Columbia investments and protections for protesters.
I'm curious what you think your sources say? You originally claimed that this protest leader participated in the act of selectively denying access to campus facilities for Jewish people. That Politico article does not support your claim.
I did not claim that he directly participated in that. If you simply google his name, in every article the word 'leader' is used to describe him in relation to the Columbia protests, protests which did include such acts.
He was a leader of protests at Columbia which involved physically blocking Jewish students from entering classes and other forms of overt discrimination and intimidation directed at Jewish and Israeli students.
That he was a leader of protests at Columbia? That the protests involved physically blocking Jewish students? That the protests involved intimidation directed at Jewish and Israeli students?
It was a full sentence. Try backing it up with facts. This shouldn't take a 7 comment deep thread to handle, unless maybe you are full of shit and want to bury that fact with some of your bullshit.
You are trolling or I suppose you are just upset that your guy is being deported. If there's something specific you want me to find a source for, let me know.
I'm trolling? For asking you to source one claim? This is the sixth time you've been asked to provide sources. Two people have asked. Your unsourced comment is flagged. The one source you provided does not match your claims afaict.
You can find many other mainstream sources calling him a "leader" by simply doing a Google News search for the term "Mahmoud Khalil leader".
This is something you could have taken 2 seconds to Google. This is why you're trolling and acting in bad faith. Regardless of our discussions here, Mahmoud is being deported and many more are to come according to statement put out by the White House.
I appreciate the source and I'll get back to you with a detailed reply of my own once I've finished reading it and searching for corroborating details on the people who were there. Watch this space.

Why post a comment like yours that can be disproven within 2 seconds of Googling?
