Columbia University has three college administrators who promise to provide a safe space for everyone—except Jews; who promise to validate the lived experiences of everyone—except Jews; who promise to be sensitive to and inclusive of everyone—except Jews. The erasure and exclusion of Jews—the practice of “except Jews”—is antisemitism.

Jews are one of the smallest minorities (0.2%) and have been under attack by Islam (a large majority of over 20%) for 1600 years. Israel is the indigenous home for Jews and has been under constant attack from its genocidal neighbors since before gaining independence from the oppressive colonialism. The same colonialism that gave Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Syria land without a second thought. Yet Islamic racism together with envy of the result of Jews hard work drove these neighbors and their immigrants to attack Israel over and over.

Another phrase for Antisemitism is simply "Jew Hatred". We do know what happened after the last time Jews were blocked from attending their Universities...
Disgusting examples of educators gone bad and must be punished with expulsion
Those colleges and businesses who support antisemitism or are NOT doing anything to protect Jewish students should have their federal funding pulled. The Executive Order in 2019 made Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act applicable to antisemitic acts. The order suggested the alliance’s definition be considered by those enforcing Title IV – which bans discrimination based on race, color or national origin in programs and activities, like colleges and universities that receive federal funding. The order also pointed to the group’s examples of antisemitism. My World War II hero (in the middle) fought for freedom in the world. We don't need our rights to be lost on our own soil.
I hope they pay the full price for their bigotry and antisemitism.
If not done & if true about deans, time to sue Columbia, it's admins, deans, & others responsible under title VI plus Constitution ( Freedom of Assembly, etc ).
It’s obvious these college administrators are not qualified to serve in such critical positions

These administrators need to be served their walking papers if the allegations are proven true. No severance package!

1wThey refuse to combat institutional antisemitism because they are the institutional antisemites. So long as these are the ideologies of our university leaders, Jewish and Israeli students’ grievances will not be addressed
