As the encampment at the school continued for an eighth day Wednesday, some Jewish and pro-Israel students wrote to the school president to complain about the conditions on campus. CBS New York's Lisa Rozner reports.

I cannot believe this person just said they are working toward full, equal human rights through the 'freedom' of Palestine. American education means absolutely nothing.

[@johnsonjobs7399]

Perhaps you’re just uneducated, Israel is the most condemned country in the UN for human right abuses.

[@P.90.603]

Quote one person, and then judge a whole institution. Your comment means nothing.

Peaceful protests should be tolerated. The exceptions to the first amendment and obstructing essential ingress and egress should not be tolerated, in my opinion. Most importantly, disagreements with policies of any country's leaders is NOT reason for hating (or assuming protesters hate) an entire RACE of a nation of Israel

[@Winpegal]

This is NOT a peaceful protest. This is a terrorism

They haven't watched the videos of gays being thrown off the roof in Gaza yet.

[@user-rx9uc1jh2h41]

America has been Pro Israel and sent money and weapons for 70 years but no changes in Apartheid practice and Palestinians are still being treated as second class citizens as if here black people were in 1970s. How about we change that for the first time? They can’t discriminate against Palestinians forever. At least we say no that’s not right. People shouldn’t be marginalized and cordoned off and foods, electricity, medical supplies shouldn’t be cut off. I’m not saying Hamas civilians attack is legitimate , but treating like people as if animals for 70 years based on skin color of people and their religion is too harsh and enough is enough.

[@hahdakdahkdhalsla]

Can you say the same to israelis?

People don't protest if there is no injustice happening!!!

Students protesting and now negotiating? For what ? Seems like- everybody has forgotten Oct 7??😢

[@62Cristoforo]

It’s like you forgot about the ongoing genocide

[@JibskySacar]

October 7 is a result of Israel's decades of oppression in Palestine. Palestine deserves to be free from this oppression!!!

[@JNB0723]

All the Pro-Israel folks who say "I fear for my life" are full of crap. Half the jews are in the camp, and no harm has been done to the other half.

[@Winpegal]

That is a lie. Students have been assaulted and harassed. That’s why so many have reported the crimes and why so many are suing as the university isn’t investigating anything. If the protesters are so peaceful why then did Iniversity shut down

@seandowney6216 please show me that. Besides, there will always be pro-agitators at every protest, ignore them. Look at the goals of the protest.

Claiming that destroying Israel has nothing to do with antisemitism is like claiming that destroying Italy has nothing to do with Italians.

So people who protesting to stop the killing of innocent civillians are terrorists?

[@supermanny865]

They are American citizens who are fighting for the rights of others and to stop an ongoing g-side in Palestine.

[@dcar6530]

terrorists mean Hamas?

[@zb6070]

Palestinian protestors: we want the war to end. Ceasefire now. A random person: so should gaza release all hostages, hamas stop using human shields and agree to have gaza be led by a government not dedicated to killing all jews and destroying israel by repeating oct. 7 over and over. Palestinian protestors: LOL OMG NO

[@MattMajcan]

the hostages will be released immediately when israel agrees to a ceasefire and goes home. they refuse to give up control of gaza so there you have it. the human shields thing is propaganda and there is no evidence of it. also hamas just said theyll agree to peace if a two state solution is agreed

[@dcar6530]

maybe we should investigate what's or who's behind this.

Sorry, the mass graves have no possible connection to Russia, so the media don't care.

GO TO CLASS

[@autumnfragrance6326]

These are your best Universities ... therefore these students represent your best and brightest intellectuals. You people should be listening and learning from them. An objective was that protesting beats studying for final exams. Finals are now "take at home" tests. Mission accomplished.

[@Winpegal]

Obviously NOT !

[@dcar6530]

the profs should fail these students of not taking the exams.
