It was obvious from the beginning that the student protesters were tools of Hamas. Now it turns out that they were actually an arm of Hamas. This supports, of course, the idea that those among them who are not U.S. citizens should be deported.
“Columbia activists worked with Hamas, captors told rescued hostage Shlomi Ziv,” by Michael Starr, Jerusalem Post, March 25, 2025:
Hamas kidnappers told rescued hostage Shlomi Ziv the terrorist organization had operatives on American campuses, according to a Monday lawsuit by October 7 victims, with the terrorists showing him articles and photographs of Columbia university protests.
In a lawsuit filed Monday to the New York Southern District Court against Within Our Lifetime and its leader Nerdeen Kiswani, Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine and representative Maryam Alwan, Columbia-Barnard Jewish Voice for Peace and representative Cameron Jones, and Columbia University Apartheid Divest and lead negotiator Mahmoud Khalil, Plaintiff Ziv said that his Hamas captors referred to protests planned by the defendants when bragging about having American operatives.
The lawsuit alleged not only that Columbia SJP renewed its dormant Instagram activity three minutes before the attack and National SJP appeared to have produced propaganda material during or before the massacre, but argued that the affiliated groups been financed and supported by Hamas through organizations that the terrorist group founded.
The Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas founded the Palestine Committee in 1988 to fund and support its operations, the suit alleged, creating arms such as Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development and the Islamic Association for Palestine.
After HLF and IAP were exposed, key members of the group allegedly founded by American Muslims for Palestine. AMP sponsored the first National SJP convention, which according to the suit has no independent corporate structure and is controlled by AMP.
Columbia SJP is a chapter of NSJP and WOL is a rebranded New York City Students for Justice in Palestine. The suit noted that Columbia JVP has a close relationship with the local SJP chapter, as do the national bodies. The suit alleged that JVP is use to provide cover to SJP against charges of antisemitism. CUAD, a coalition of hundreds of student groups, according to the suit ceased to be dormant until November 2023 after the Columbia SJP and JVP chapters were banned, and according to the suit has been acting through CUAD.
“Upon information and belief, and based upon statements made to Plaintiff Shlomi Ziv by his Hamas captor, Hamas and AMP/NSJP provided financial, organizational, and other support to CUAD and the Columbia AMP/NSJP Affiliates for the Encampment,” read the suit.
Khalil, who has represented CUAD through the protests in New York City, is now at the center of the US federal government’s campaign to deport pro-Hamas activist students from the country….

President Trump wisely understands and recognizes that all this anti-Jewish and anti-Israel hate is dangerous ,malice-filled spiteful and vicious as well as irrational and ignorant and outright evil.
Likewise, President Trump is doing something, about severe and malice fill hate for the Jewish people and the State of Israel at Columbia University, which is ,no doubt , the result of Muslim stealth jihadist infiltration and influence at that institution of “higher education” That type of the stealth jihad is backed supported by oil rich Islamic nations , such a Qatar.
In addition, it should be remembered that former US President, William Howard Taft, was right then he wisely, declared in a speech “Anti-Semitism is a noxious weed that should be cut out it has no place in America.”
For this anti- Jewish hate is also, in essence, very un-American.
As in the grand statement in a speech the former President Theodore Roosevelt, rightly, declared, “There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only one hundred percent Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.”
Walter Sieruk says
Many universities and colleges, as Columbia University, across the United States ,as observed in Columbia University, have been thoroughly infiltrated and influenced by the insidious stealth jihadists.
There may be little doubt that those stealth jihadists are backed and funded by Qatar as well as oil rich Saudi Arabia.
This is terrible. We as Americans should glad and relived that President Trump is doing something about all that sinister and demonic hate at those institutions of “higher educations”
Rob Porter says
Donald Trump needs to appreciate that regardless of howls from the left he will need to conduct mass deportations of Muslims – whose first allegiance is to Islam, not a country. Most of theseMuslims represent ‘the enemy within’.

Where’s CAIR? Is that group which is a Hamas one, laying low as it has already been found to be a co-conspirator to a terrorist charge in an earlier lawsuit and don’t want to be investigated in any further inquiries? Terrorist organizations, especially Palestinian ones change their names once their original name becomes connected to a terrorist charge. Hamas is different because its intended audience is the Palestinian people who do no really care about names and Hamas has a lot of support among the Palestinian population. But in the US a Hamas connection would be harmful during a Trump Presidency.
But names like AMP/NSJP which provided financial, organizational, and other support to CUAD as well as CUAD itself and the Columbia AMP/NSJP Affiliates for the Encampment are less known in the US and only recently are becoming known. But they are pure Hamas.

Seize the phones of these campus agitators and track their communications since 10/7. They all need to be turned over to the IDF or put in GITMO.

There are several ways to deal with the utter mess that Columbia University has become. One such way President Trump already has taken and that is denying it money. Another way is to just soberly expose it with a plethora of facts respecting how stupendously Leftist and unhinged (excuse the redundancy) it has become. And yet another way is to use the second best method of dealing with evil, crushing evil being #1 here, and that is ridiculing it, mocking it incessantly.
Columbia deserves to be deprived of money and deserves to have its radical faculty revealed for what it is, but it also richly deserves to be mocked, laughed at repeatedly, because humor is a very powerful way to deal with evil. And I will end here by averring that any parent who thinks sending their child to Columbia is a good idea is absolutely a very bad idea and an example of rank child abuse.

“any parent who thinks sending their child to Columbia is a good idea is absolutely a very bad idea and an example of rank child abuse.”
Yes.
Certainly true after Columbia has recently been exposed as being a Hamas loving / Jew hating Institute of lower learning.
Cynthia says
A once revered institution, Columbia U is not considered as a choice by many applicants today. Unless you want to major in “activism”, there is nothing but a negative impression when choosing a university.
The majority of students being foreign is another clue to the subversive nature of this school.
We absolutely should follow the money, and expose and disallow funding by Qatar and Saudi Arabia that is purposely poisoning our next generation.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
How money given to “Palestine” gets hijacked either into building an underground jihad, or going to Western countries for jihad propaganda
Yeah, the First Amendment exists, and Jew-haters in Columbia have a right to their views, but Columbia ain’t compelled to keep them. The school should do a purge of all Hamas protesters, and let them self-deport to Syria
Lenny Leaps In says
Hamas’ useful idiots is a more apt description of the Columbia Students…
Patriot64 says

Donna says

Billy says
Islam, a Terrorist-Criminal Enterprise, and its predatory believers continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, supremacy, segregation, hatred, violence, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law and in Islam’s Quran, and Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Americans and Westerners(Quran 9:5,29; 49:15; 60:4 and more).
Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam is a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) fighting against Non-Muslims and NOT A PEACEFUL religion under Western Law because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes a Terrorist Criminal Organization with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 9:5,29; 49:15 and more). Under Islam and Islamic Law, Muslims have the legal right to terrorize Non-Muslims because neglecting this QURANIC DUTY is a Crime against Allah; Jihad means warfare against Non-Muslims to ESTABLISH ISLAM’S RELIGION(Quran 3:151; 9:5,29,111; Muslim Law Manual: “Reliance of the Traveller”, o9.0 and more).
More specifically, Islam, a terroristic-destructive way of life, is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, segregation, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, incitement, sedition, rape, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran(Quran 2:216; 4:65,89,95; 5:14,64; 8:12,39,74; 9:5,21,29,36, 41,49,73,88,111,123; 21:92; 49:15; 60:4 and more).
Tony says
Islam and its Muslims in the West are using Western Freedoms and Laws against Non-Muslims. Consequently, Non-Muslims should legally designate Islam as a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO) to fight back against ISLAMIZATION, Muslim subjugation, discrimination, and violence(Quran 9:5,29,111; 98:6-7 and more).
OLD GUY says
Not surprised at all. Islam has been infiltrating our education system, local, state and federal agencies and political offices for 30 years. It’s hard to turn down those million dollar contributions that look so innocent. Well they are anything but innocent, they are the enemy of freedom infiltrating our countries with one goal, the destruction of our freedom and total dominate of Islamic rule.
Those accepting these contributions are either fooling themselves or are greedy criminals on the take.
