Masked students disrupt Columbia classes, distribute antisemitic leaflets as college named ‘national model’ for anti-Israel protest

Columbia University erupted in another round of anti-Israel protests Tuesday, with masked people disrupting classes and passing out flyers showing a boot stamping on a Star of David, witnesses told The Post.

Video shows the masked protesters bursting into a History of Modern Israel class on campus and handing out flyers showing an Israeli flag on fire and the words “Burn Zionism to the ground.”

The incident comes as Columbia was named the “national model” for anti-Israel protest — setting a template copied by others for coordinated protests across the country, according to a watchdog group.

In its report looking at protests on campus last year, the Canary Mission identified more than 300 Columbia faculty, students and others who were “influential in promoting Hamas ideology at Columbia” after the terror group’s October 7 attacks on Israel, which left 1,200 Israelis dead and saw 250 taken hostage.

However, most of the people who took part in the protests were “outside agitators” and only 68 were Columbia students, according to the 53-page study “From Tehran to Columbia: Inside America’s Student Intifada.”

Student Lishi Baker, 22, a Middle East history major whose class was disrupted Tuesday, told The Post the posters “looked like images we might see in 1930s Germany.

“This movement continues to reveal itself as pro-terror … they spit in the face of liberal values and create an intolerable hostile environment for Jewish students.”

Following Tuesday’s disruption, visiting professor Avi Shilon told The Post he was mostly concerned for the safety of his class.

Hard to tell if it’s leftists, moslem terrorists or feds (or some other tentacle of the cabal).

“Masked Students” should be freely beaten with sticks. Open season. No bag limit.

“ Masked Students” should be freely beaten with sticks. Open season. No bag limit.”

I endorse that approach. Separate a few from the herd and leave them a reminder on what will happen if they do this again.

Always has been. At least since the 1950s.
