Many people are wondering about what’s happening on U.S. campuses.
While I can’t speak about all other college campuses, I can definitely give you an insider’s view about @Columbia University.
(this thread may be a bit long, but trust me: it's worth it)
At @Columbia, the pro-Hamas protests have been primarily led by Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine (SJP).
Before I begin, one thing needs to be made clear:
I have never spoken against any @Columbia student nor have I ever called for the ‘doxxing’ of our students.
My problem is the pro-terror *organizations* that are operating on @Columbia’s campus.
So, what is Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine all about?
This organization was founded in 2001 by Hatem Bazian at @UCBerkely.
From its inception (and despite the lies they perpetuate), SJP called for violence in the United States
Here is a short clip of the founder of Students for 'Justice' in Palestine calling for an armed uprising in the U.S., just like the one in Iraq.
Reminder: Hatem Bazian is, at this very moment, a professor @UCBerkely
SJP has never hidden its support for terror.
In 2014, SJP raised funds for Rasmea Odeh – a terrorist convicted of bombing a crowded supermarket and murdering Leon Kanner and Eddie Joffe – two undergraduate students at @HebrewU
*This is what makes SJP a pro-terror organization*
For years, SJP has openly supported Hamas.
Hamas is a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
Don’t take my word for it.
Here is the official list of foreign terror organizations that are recognized by the U.S. State Department Bureau of Counterterrorism,
SJP celebrates terrorists who target any civilian, not just Israeli ones.
Here is a post celebrating a terrorist who hijacked an *American airplane*.
On board was Thomas Boyatt – a high ranking U.S. diplomat.
*This is what makes SJP a pro-terror organization*
Now, let’s take a look at what SJP had to say about the October 7 Massacre, in which Hamas terrorist raped teenage girls, executed babies, and kidnapped more than 250 civilians (*including 14 U.S. citizens!*)
Here are some excerpts from the official letter from the national chapter of SJP, *written on the day of the October 7 massacre*
SJP calls rape, torture, murder, and kidnapping of civilians a ‘historic win’
*This is what makes SJP a pro-terror organization*
The national chapter of SJP calls terrorists who rape teenagers, murder babies, and kidnap old women “resistance fighters” and “martyrs”
(Notice the first person plural. They view Hamas terrorists as *their* martyrs)
*This is what makes SJP a pro-terror organization*
Celebrating violence against Israeli civilians is not enough for SJP.
They also call for confrontations on all U.S campuses.
(Some people may find this extremely telling - the national chapter of Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine refuses to acknowledge the U.S. by name)
SJP views rape, murder, and kidnapping as *legitimate* and *necessary*
My 93 years old grandmother lives in Israel. SJP believes that kidnapping her would be a necessary act of resistance.
These are their words, not mine.
*This is what makes SJP a pro-terror organization*
But here is the smoking gun.
Maybe the most telling thing about Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine is that they are merely a mouthpiece for Hamas.
Again, don’t take my word for it.
Listen to this message from a Hamas spokesperson on the day of the October 7 Massacre
Now, let’s focus on @Columbia.
SJP at @Columbia will tell you that they are merely protesting the war in Gaza.
That’s a lie.
As you can clearly see, the @Columbia SJP chapter already mobilized on October 7, *while the massacre of civilians by Hamas was still taking place*
In fact, a mere five days after the October 7 massacre (and weeks before even a single Israeli soldier set foot in Gaza), the @Columbia chapter of SJP orchestrated a protest to celebrate the rape, murder, and kidnapping of Israeli civilians.
After repeatedly breaking @Columbia’s policies for holding unauthorized protests, SJP was temporarily suspended from campus.
In response, they call their friends from Within Our Lifetime (WOL) – an even more radical pro-terror organization.
Like @Columbia’s chapter of SJP, Within Our Lifetime also believe that raping teenagers, executing babies, and kidnapping the elderly are all legitimate forms of resistance.
So, what is this organization called Within Our Lifetime?
In February 2018, the New York City chapter of Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine was renamed Within Our Lifetime.
*WOL is basically SJP, re-branded.*
In fact, Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine clearly take their cues from the Within Our Lifetime playbook.
Here are some recommended chants from the WOL ‘rally toolkit’:
@NYPD, KKK, IDF, They’re all the same
There is only one solution! Intifada revolution!
And, of course, their personal favorite:
(Notice that they are not even pretending to say that they are chanting for coexistence. They don’t want Jews in Israel. They are literally saying the quiet part out loud.)
If you still have doubts about what Intifada means in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, see here:
There are many more examples of the terror-sympathizing, hateful rhetoric of Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine.
This is not about individual students.
*This is about a well-funded pro-terror organization that operates across more than 200 (!) U.S. campuses.*
This is what the President of @Columbia University is unwilling to put a stop to.
This is why we must all ask Congresswoman @virginiafoxx to issue a subpoena and force the President of @Columbia to testify in front of the U.S. Congress.
To learn more about the how Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine operate, orchestrate their lies, and recruit naïve students all across the U.S., I recommend that you follow this guy: @thestustustudio
If you've made it all the way to the end of these thread, I kindly ask you to retweet this, so we can get the word out.
Every American parent needs to know about this pro-terror organization that is operating on their kids' college campus.

Journalists, I can't speak to all of you, but if I could, this is what I would say:
Within Our Lifetime is the organization whose members beat to pulp a Jewish man in the streets of New York in 2021. Why? Because he was the first Jew they could find. (see below, in the thread)
Guess what Within Our Lifetime used to be called before they changed their name in 2018? Students for Justice in Palestine, NYC. (yes, it's the evidence is in the thread below)
The leader of Within Our Lifetime - Nardeen Kiswani - is a Jew hater who openly support Hamas and the annihilation of Israel. Last Saturday night, she got married. Do you know where? Inside the pro-Hamas illegal encampment at @Columbia. (see below, also in the thread)
Nardeen Kiswani does not have a Columbia ID, yet she is allowed to be on campus. Yet I, a Columbia *professor*, am barred entry because the university cannot guarantee my personal safety from the pro-Hamas mob.
Also, remember those videos of protestors burning the American flag, chanting "down with the U.S.A.", and saying that Bin Laden "did what had to be done"? Do you know who organizer those protests? Within Our Lifetime. (see below, also in the thread).
All the evidence is out there. It's clear as day. You just have to let the world know about this. These are not "peaceful protests" like Rashida Tlaib and the New York Times would have you believe. You have a responsibility for the truth, and it is laid right there for you. @CampusJewHate and I have been documenting this for six months. All you have to do is report it.
And by the way - stop calling these protests pro-Palestine. They are not pro-Palestine, they are pro-Hamas. They even say so themselves. And Hamas doesn't care about the Palestinian people. You know it and I know it.
But don't take it from me. Take it from people like @afalkhatib. Ahmed and I may not agree about everything, but I respect his courage, his humanity, his moral backbone for speak for the Palestinian people and against Hamas.
Palestinian people like Ahmed - who was born and raised in Gaza and lost many family members in this horrible, horrible war - speak for the Palestinian people. Not some radicalized White student from Wisconsin who has no skin in the game and who thinks that buying a keffiyeh on Amazon Prime makes them a liberator.
And if you take even one thing from people like Ahmed, let this be it: can be pro-Palestine AND anti-Hamas. By calling these protestors pro-Palestine, the media does a disservice to all the Palestinians who oppose Hamas and spreads a lie that supporting Palestine requires supporting violence and terrorism.
Start calling it as it is: pro-terror.

And journalists, one more thing:
Please stop treating this like the "Shai Davidai Show." This is not my story. This is OUR story. This is the story of all the Jewish and Israeli students, staff, and faculty at @Columbia and all other U.S. and Canadian universities. Start interviewing them. Ask them how *they* are feeling. Ask them what they've been seeing and hearing on campus. This is the story about how antisemitism and an ideology that glorifies terrorism snaked their way into academia and the illiberal left.
It's all there on my feed. Just scroll back to October 12th and start from there. I know it might take long to go over everything, but please do. Look at how the pro-Hamas professors and a few radical extremists on campus brainwashed latently antisemitic protestors into a terrorist idolizing mob.
(seriously: they have posters of suicide bombers in this illegal encampment on campus. There is nothing peaceful about that)
So, just read all the threads, watch all the videos, and listen to all the speeches. It's all there.
This is the story of what it's like being Jewish at @Columbia.
All you have to do is tell it.
About Within Our Lifetime:
They are domestic terrorist threat, and they operate right here, in New York City.
Nardeen Kiswani's wedding ceremony *inside* the illegal encampment. This is the leader of Within Our Lifetime.
(reminder: she doesn't have an ID and can be on campus. I am a professor, but can't. One of us is Jewish. The other one supports terror. you do the math.)
A suspended pro-Hamas student organization at @Columbia makes up a lie about me.
A prominent pro-Hamas organizer at @ColumbiaSSW with thousands of follower retweets the lie.
This is modern day Hitler Youth.
But this Jew will not be scared away.
(see below for the truth)
Here is a video of the event, taken by a brave Jewish student.
You can clearly see that: 1. I am facing away from the protest 2. I am calling out my colleague, Prof. Joseph "October 7 was awesome" Massad for participating in an unauthorized protest.
I would never speak to or over a student. That's just not my style.
But I will always keep calling out Hamas-supporting professors who are poisoning the minds of college students across the country.
Just Prof. Joseph Massad (who, on October 8, published an Op-Ed praising the 10/7 Massacre) and a student organizer getting their marching orders during an unauthorized pro-Hamas protest at @Columbia.
Did I say "marching orders"? I meant, "intellectual frameworks of decolonization"
