Students participating in the Gaza Solidarity Encampments at universities across the country are being taught to become militants, according to nine manuals obtained by The Free Press. Many of the manuals, which are being shared via phone group chats with students across the country, encourage “militancy” and instruct protesters to break laws, seize buildings, vandalize them, and then use tactics to evade police detection and arrest. One guide, called “De-arrest Primer,” teaches protesters to physically resist arrest or, in some cases, assault police officers or throw projectiles at them to protect fellow “comrades” from arrest. “Each de-arrest,” the guide states,...

Columbia University and other private colleges should cough up and help foot the bill for the NYPD having to swarm the Ivy League campus and crackdown on pro-terror protests, Mayor Eric Adams said Thursday. Hizzoner addressed the cost to Big Apple taxpayers after cops were finally called in to help oust a destructive mob that had illegally taken over Columbia’s Hamilton Hall academic building late Tuesday and to clear out an encampment on the school’s iconic lawn. “We believe that they, too, should contribute to the cost,” the mayor told FOX5 when asked whether the Ivy League school should have...

NEW: Mass Arrests INSIDE Columbia University as hundreds of cops Flood to Clear the Occupied Hamilton Hall. **** Maggots get cleared out! https://twitter.com/ULTRA_MAJESTY/status/1785504418965705155

One of the problems with the campus radicals and useful idiots is that they don't really live in reality. They talk about an occupation when there is no occupation of Gaza by Israel. They talk about a genocide when there is no genocide by Israel. There is a genocide being attempted by Hamas against Israel, but the radicals and idiots seem to refuse delivery on that reality. Fox's Lawrence Jones asked one of their people hawking propaganda material on the street outside of Columbia University some important questions, and her responses show how empty their positions truly are. He asked...

As the criminal trial of two So Cal Antifa members goes into its third week, the public is learning about how one of the notorious Antifa groups organizes and carries out violence against targets. Jeremy Jonathan White, 41, and Brian Cortez Lightfoot Jr., 27, both of Los Angeles, are accused of carrying out violent attacks on supporters of former President Donald Trump in a felony conspiracy—the first time Antifa suspects have been charged with such a serious felony accusation anywhere in the US. Nine of their co-defendant comrades have already been convicted in plea deals, including Luis Francisco Mora, 32,...

Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News. Tuesday, April 16, 2024. No, the people disrupting traffic Monday are not "pro-Palestine". The local news media all get it wrong. There protesters are not "pro-Palestinian." If they were "pro-Palestinian," they would protest how terribly Lebanon treats its Palestinian "guests." If they were "pro-Palestinian," they would protest how Egypt doesn't let any Gazans desperate to leave to enter Egypt without paying hefty bribes. If they were "pro-Palestinian," they would have protested how Syria besieged and starved Palestinians at Yarmouk camp. If they were "pro-Palestinian," they would protest Palestinian laws that are officially anti-women and...

A pro-Hamas mob learned a very important lesson in downtown Los Angeles today: don’t mess with commuters. The mob shut down the 110 Freeway.,P. Scroll down for videos

How much longer will we put up with “peaceful protests” actually being violent riots? How many more times will we allow our roads and bridges to be shut down for the leftist lunacy of the day before we say enough? This week, a pro-Palestinian protest shut down the Manhattan Bridge. It wasn’t the first time the bridge had been brought to a standstill to ostensibly take a stand for Palestine. The bridge was shut down in November too. As The Post reported at the time, “Three demonstrators — one woman and two men — were arrested during the protest, according...

The 110 is one of Los Angeles's busiest and most roaringly hellish freeways. Some people consider it the worst, or pretty close. My choice for 'worst' is the 101, but the 110 is right up there. If you have ever been on the 110, you would know that it isn't all that wide, and it's loaded with big rigs roaring down in high-speed convoys, coming and going from the Port of Los Angeles. SNIP So which highway did a band of leftist goofs, this group called "If Not Now LA" who apparently were leftist Jews imagining that appeasing Hamas would...

Pro-Palestinian protesters have shut down the 110 freeway in Los Angeles to demand a ceasefire. As you’ll see, LA drivers were not happy about it.

LOS ANGELES, California — Pro-Palestinian protesters vandalized buildings near synagogues, as well as a nearby church, with anti-Israel graffiti on Friday night after demonstrating against President Joe Biden at a nearby fundraiser on Friday night. As Breitbart News reported, the protesters gathered outside a fundraiser near Beverly Hills, waving signs that included “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” — a call for Israel to be destroyed.

The New York Post reports that several hundred students in a Queens high school caused several hours of violent rioting in protest against a teacher who attended a pro-Israel protest. The teacher in question was forced to take shelter in a locked office as the mob attempted to force entry into her classroom. The teacher was photographed at a rally holding a sign reading "I stand with Israel." “Everyone was yelling ‘Free Palestine!’” a senior said. “Everyone was screaming ‘[The teacher] needs to go!’” a ninth-grader added. School administrators and the NYPD, which responded to the school at about 11:20...

ABC News' Chief White House correspondent Mary Bruce was criticized for her characterization of a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Washington D.C., which left the White House and other buildings vandalized, over the weekend. Pro-Palestinian demonstrators descended on Washington on Saturday night, protesting President Biden's support of Israel and demanding a cease-fire in Gaza. Some in the crowd could be seen vandalizing and shaking the White House fence at one point. Antisemitic graffiti was also left on several buildings along the protesters' path through the city, according to social media posts. Some protesters were heard chanting, among other slogans, "F--k Joe Biden,"...

Over the Christmas weekend, Chicago surpassed the 750-murder mark for 2016. But as blacks lay dying on the streets of Chicago’s South and West Sides, a Black Lives Matter offshoot is more interested in traveling overseas to learn “resistance” from terrorists. The Dream Defenders bills itself as “an uprising of communities in struggle, shifting culture through transformational organizing.” But an investigation conducted by the Haym Salomon Center reveals the group’s embrace of anti-Semitism and collaboration with a State Department-designated terror group. In August, Black Lives Matter singled out Israel for condemnation, declaring it an “apartheid” state engaged in “genocide.” These...

Orwell could not have imagined the swiftness in which the Left has exerted control over our body politic... In George Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984,” he portrays English society – renamed Oceania – as a futuristic version of the 1940s Soviet Union. In this invented society that Orwell calls IngSoc – English Socialism – the populace has even less freedom than the Soviets permitted its citizens and life consists only of drudgery, loneliness and hideousness. The novel grips the reader with fear and loathing of a totalitarian future enabled by technological advances and prompts one with the question: “Can it, will...

The highest court in Brazil, the Supreme Federal Tribunal (STF), sentenced two of the first defendants implicated in the January 8 Brasilia riot to 17 years in prison on Thursday on a variety of charges including “attempted coup d’etat” and “attempted abolition of the democratic rule of law.” Aécio Lúcio Costa Pereira, 51, was identified as part of a crowd of thousands of supporters of conservative former President Jair Bolsonaro who stormed the Brazilian Congress, STF headquarters, and office of the presidency in January in large part due to videos Pereira himself published on social media in which he documented...

The existence of a masked gang of young men tying up rioters in one town is discussed in French language publications, but the mayor insists no such thing exists and tells locals to call the police if they witness unrest. Witness accounts of a so-called “brigade anticasseur” (anti-thug brigade) in the port town of Lorlent, Brittany are reported by local newspaper Le Télégramme. In addition to what is reported by members of the public to the paper, a journalist for the publication claims to have seen a group of between 20 and 30 “young, hooded men” wearing balaclavas and gloves...
