Former bartender and the "Squad" sued for 'inciting' Columbia's pro-Hamas encampment

You can put lipstick on an anti-Semite, but she's still an anti-Semite

Rep. and comrade Alexandria Occasionally-Comatose (Socialist-NY) and other members of far-left "Squad" face a class action lawsuit that alleges they incited and encouraged anti-Israel [read: pro-Hamas; anti-Semitic] protests and encampments at Columbia University earlier this year.

Five anonymous students filed the lawsuit, naming AOC and Democratic Reps. Jamal "Fire Alarm" Bowman of New York and Ilhan "Her Brother's Sleeper" Omar of Minnesota. The lawsuit also names roughly a dozen anti-Zionist organizing groups.

"The Gaza Encampment was extreme and outrageous conduct. It was illegal. It violated university rules. Its occupants harassed, followed, physically blocked, intimidated, and bullied Jewish students," the lawsuit reads.

Of the five students, two are Jewish; one identified only as "Tim Doe,"  spoke to the New York Post about his experience.

"During the protests, I witnessed numerous offensive and anti-Semitic signs and messages, including anti-Semitic skunk posters with the Star of David," he told the newspaper.

"In one instance, I was walking with my non-Jewish friends when I was singled out because I was wearing my yarmulke [a Jewish skullcap]. A leader of the pro-Palestinian protest approached our group and confronted me. He singled me out, yelling that I needed to move, and when I refused, he began to shove me out of the way," he added.

The Columbia encampment made international headlines, with pro-Hamasshole students and even faculty participating in a campus takeover that lasted weeks and forced classes to be held online as it limited access to campus buildings at a time when students were studying for their final exams.

Columbia, like other Marxist-led universities across the country, ultimately had to cancel its graduation ceremony.

"Those were real damages sustained by the 36,000 students at Columbia who chose to obey university rules, go to class, and pursue their education, only to be frustrated at the finish line by the … acts of their classmates and professors, with the assistance and encouragement of outside activists," the lawsuit says.

AOC, Omar and Bowman all spoke glowingly of the anti-Israel protests at the time.

Am Yisrael Chai! In spite of these cretins.
