00:02:20.000Senator, it has been a crazy week on college campuses specifically.
00:02:24.840And also, we are now understanding a little bit more of these protests.
00:02:30.900We understand where the money's coming from.
00:02:33.700We understand they're working with colleges and professors.
00:02:36.800We understand that the colleges are giving these students the leeway to really push the limits on free speech and to attack Jewish students, to intimidate them.
00:02:58.220And you have to understand, first of all, the radicals that are putting this on.
00:03:02.480This is not ordinary political speech.
00:03:05.500This is not within the mainstream of discussions.
00:03:08.920These are radicals who hate Jews, who are bigots, who are violent, who are threatening violence, who are threatening so far as murder.
00:03:20.140Here, I want you to look at one of the organizers of these pro-Hamas protesters at Columbia University and take your own assessment of just kind of what kind of person this is.
00:03:31.540And so, be glad, be grateful that I'm not just going out and murdering Zionists.
00:03:43.900I've never murdered anyone in my life, and I hope to keep it that way.
00:05:08.980But what Hamas did on October 7th, the Nazis would be proud.
00:05:15.920It was the same sort of indiscriminate mass murder directed at Jews because they are Jews.
00:05:21.760That the world has not seen at that scale since the Holocaust.
00:05:26.720October 7th was in one day the largest mass murder of Jews since the Holocaust.
00:05:31.560And by the way, when you are murdering civilians, when you're murdering the elderly, when you're murdering children, when you're raping women and little girls, when you're beheading people, those are the atrocities the Nazis committed.
00:05:46.400That is what these pro-Hamas protesters are chanting.
00:05:51.060Now, you asked about, is that a threat?
00:05:54.120Listen, if you are threatening violence, that is not protected by the Constitution.
00:05:58.460If you are threatening to kill anyone, that's not protected by the Constitution.
00:06:03.920We know that the threats are being heard and perceived because we know at Columbia the Orthodox rabbi sent out an email, actually a WhatsApp, to the some 260 Jewish students on campus saying, do not come to campus, stay home.
00:07:10.020But number two, just because the Constitution allows you to say it, does not mean a university has to allow it on their campus.
00:07:19.000That's what I was going to ask second.
00:07:20.380And I'm glad you went there, is that there doesn't seem to be any accountability on these college campuses from the administration.
00:07:28.080If there is accountability, it's coming from police outside.
00:07:30.480So listen, does anybody doubt that if a student on a campus went to the center of campus, erected a cross, lit the cross on fire, put on a white sheet, and advocated for the murder of all African Americans, that that student would be expelled?
00:07:54.560And let's be clear, well, depending on burning the cross might be arrested, but if you do it in a public square, that actually is protected free speech.
00:08:03.120You're allowed to say it, just like the Nazis are allowed to say, we want to kill Jews.
00:08:08.040The Klan is allowed to say, we want to kill African Americans, or Hispanics, by the way.
00:08:12.420Let's be clear, the Klan wants to kill me too.
00:08:39.880And so, of course, if a student began speaking as a Klansman and arguing for killing fellow students, you would expel that student.
00:08:49.960Likewise, and by the way, in a normal world, if a racist who happened to be African American began saying we should murder white students, you should expel that student.
00:09:01.500And in this instance, where you have students calling for murdering Jews, in my view, those who are engaged of threats of violence, a threat of violence crosses the line to criminality, they should be arrested.
00:09:16.720Especially those who commit actual violence, they should be arrested.
00:09:21.960Students who engage in this should be expelled.
00:09:27.460Professors who engage in this hateful speech should be fired.
00:09:31.240Look, we talked in a prior podcast about what appeared to be a Columbia student holding a sign.
00:09:37.900So there were several Jewish students behind her waving Israeli flags and American flags.
00:09:43.460And she's holding a cardboard sign that is handwritten that says Al Qassam's Next Targets with an arrow pointing to the Jewish students.
00:09:53.440And interesting enough, this young woman appears to be a blonde young woman.
00:09:57.240And I don't know if the Internet's right, but it's identified her as from a wealthy Georgia family.
00:10:01.740So not Palestinian, just a young leftist who feels perfect.
00:10:06.740And she's wrapped in a Palestinian scarf.
00:10:50.600They were anti-Israel and allowing this to play out.
00:10:53.800The leadership supports the pro-Hamas protesters.
00:10:56.740All right. Listen to the president of Columbia University not long after 9-11.
00:11:01.980So it's not you'll always have individuals who will have extreme views.
00:11:05.960But what's really troubling in the region is that there's actually quite a broad base of society which has some sympathy for the terrorists.
00:11:13.580Not so much because they approve of their methods, but it's a form of protesting against a system which is not delivering for them on the economic or the political front.
00:11:29.560So let's be clear. Flying jet airplanes into the World Trade Center, flying jet airplanes into the Pentagon, murdering some 3,000 people is not a form of protest.
00:11:38.300That is a form of mass murder. That is a form of terrorism.
00:11:41.060That is a form of targeting civilians to murder them in many instances, to burn them horribly alive.
00:11:46.600Not only did they die, many of them died horrible, wretched deaths.
00:11:50.860You and I were both alive and remember the images that day as those towers that burned.
00:11:55.880We remember the people at the top of the towers. Burning alive sounds like really a horrific death.
00:12:00.460But there she is, is this leftist academic saying, well, it's a form of protest.
00:12:07.440No, waving a sign and chanting in a public park is a form of protest.
00:12:14.020Murdering 3,000 people is a horrific crime and it is terrorism and it is evil.
00:12:20.400If there's any place where you would think a university president would not say this after 9-11, wouldn't you think it would be a university that's in New York City?
00:15:26.100Every one of them, they ought to file a class action lawsuit against Colombia and against NYU and against any of these other schools and say, look, we paid you $70,000 in tuition.
00:15:35.920And now you're not honoring your contract.
00:15:40.320You're not actually teaching your classes.
00:15:43.640They're teaching it all remotely because they won't stand up to the radicals.
00:15:48.080And the Jewish students, there is an obligation when you pay tuition that you're going to protect my safety.
00:15:53.860That is part of the contractual obligation.
00:15:57.000And Colombia is on a racial matter discriminating against Jews and saying, because we Marxists view you as oppressors, we're not going to protect your safety.
00:17:29.800Like, this is so, like, it's actually comical at this point.
00:17:32.840If you don't know, the seniors that are graduating college right now are the seniors that graduated in 2020 where we didn't have a high school graduation.
00:17:39.920And a lot of us had, like, drive-through fake graduations or no graduation at all.
00:17:45.580And now we are seniors about to graduate, getting ready for our first real graduation.
00:18:30.960They sent out an email 10 minutes ago about how they know it's disappointing, but they're canceling it.
00:18:36.380And they're going to have other fun events, which I don't even know what that means.
00:18:41.980I understand that, like, a lot has been going on at USC right now with, like, protests and everything.
00:18:46.680I just feel like there could have been a different way to go about this than to cancel the entire graduation for a class that never even got a high school graduation either.
00:18:54.000It's almost like it's lack of institutional control from the universities.
00:18:57.220I feel bad for this student and all the students.
00:18:59.120And they don't care about the students.
00:19:00.420One of the problems with the Marxists is their ideology matters more than everything.
00:19:05.460So, listen, it is a tiny fringe that are conducting these protests, these anti-Semitic displays.
00:19:12.380But the rest of the students get screwed over, as she's saying.
00:19:15.600Like, you know, it is not the majority of students that are out there.
00:19:20.420But the interest of the majority of the students, the administrators, don't care because part of the view of the modern leftist is politics trumps everything.
