I am not an expert on Judaism, but I’ve attended several Seders with Jewish friends and it’s my understanding that across the world last night - the first night of Passover - Jewish people read the following words from the Haggadah:

“For it was not one enemy alone who rose up against us to destroy us; in every generation, there are those who rise up against us and seek to destroy us.”

In America that prescient verse was read against the backdrop of rabid anti-semitism spreading like a deadly virus across elite college campuses.

The sight of thousands of students and professors at Columbia and Yale and other elite educational institutions shouting bloodthirsty slogans, hurling invectives at their Jewish classmates and blocking Jewish students from university buildings is chilling.

These spoiled children, whose parents are shelling out $65,000 a year in tuition for their leftist indoctrination, are behaving like a mob of mindless cult members. They’ve erected an “encampment” of pricey North Face tents on Columbia‘s campus and are refusing to move.

Impotent Columbia President Minouche Shafik cancelled in-person classes on Monday because the school could not guarantee the safety of students.

That’s a disgraceful admission. Arrest the hate-spewing campers and clear out troublemakers by any means necessary. Students who are not terrorist supporters have a right to attend class. In person. 

Let’s not call these Hamas supporters “demonstrators” or “protesters”. That’s too benign. These are mobs of seething Jew hating anarchists whose unabashed support for terrorism shocks the senses.

Their gleeful lack of humanity is a sign of a deep rot in higher education. These students are actively engaging in evil. 

Every Christian ought to condemn them. 

This is not Germany in 1938. This is the United States. We cannot stand by and allow Jewish students to be tormented. The lawbreakers on campuses need to be arrested and join the January 6th rioters in cells.

Anti-semitism is ugly and unAmerican. At Columbia and elsewhere it’s crossed the line from simple ugly speech to intimidation and threats.

It needs to be stopped. 

Federal funds should be immediately cut off to schools that can’t - or won’t - control the hate. Federal loans to students taking part in these mob actions should be cut off and repayment should be due immediately. 

The university president should resign and make way for someone with the courage to stand up to hate.
