Pro-Palestinian activists have launched a disturbing campaign against Jewish students, culminating in violent threats directed at the Hillel Jewish student center at Baruch College in New York City.

In a deeply alarming rally on Saturday, a small group of demonstrators openly called for “war” on American soil, specifically targeting Israel and its supporters.

Brandishing banners that proclaimed “Bring the war home” alongside images of assault rifles, the protesters displayed a flagrant disrespect for both Jewish students and the wider community.

Among the signs was a particularly egregious message aimed at the Hillel center, reading “Hillel go to hell” and showcasing an inverted red triangle, a symbol associated with Hamas propaganda.

This incident is not isolated; it reflects a growing trend of antisemitism on college campuses that has intensified alarmingly in recent weeks.

As students return to class, campuses like Cornell University and the University of Michigan have already witnessed similar protests, indicating a troubling normalization of antisemitic rhetoric.

The Biden administration has faced criticism for a perceived inaction against this rising tide of hatred, failing to protect Jewish students from hostility in academic settings.

In contrast, former President Donald Trump has a record of taking substantive actions to combat antisemitism on college campuses, extending civil rights protections during his presidency.

Trump has proposed measures to strip accreditation and federal funding from any institution that allows such antisemitic protests to take place, signaling a commitment to protecting Jewish students and the principles of free speech.

In light of the recent threats against Hillel and the escalating climate of hostility, it is clear that stronger leadership is essential to ensure the safety and rights of all students on campuses across the nation.

The need for decisive action has never been more urgent.
