A group of pro-Palestinian students targeted Hillel, a Jewish student center, during a rally at Baruch College in New York City on Saturday, the latest sign that anti-Semitism is returning with a vengeance to college campuses this fall.
Jewish Telegraph Agency Reported:
A small group of protesters gathered outside Baruch College in New York City calling for “war” on America and targeting the university's Hillel Jewish student club, a sign of further escalation in campus rhetoric ahead of the start of the new semester on Wednesday.
On Saturday, demonstrators carried banners reading “Bring the war home” and pictures of assault rifles, as well as placards reading “Pave the way for the people's war with intifada.”

According to images posted on social media by protesters, demonstrators held up signs that read “Hillel go to hell.” An upside-down red triangle, a symbol used by the Hamas terror group to identify targets. The activists in the propaganda video are wearing kefir hats and their faces are blurred, and it is unclear how many of them are Baruch students.
Protests have already erupted at Cornell University and the University of Michigan as students return to classes.
The Biden-Harris administration has done little to address anti-Semitism on college campuses. Former President Donald Trump, who expanded civil rights protections for Jews on college campuses during his first term, promised to strip accreditation and federal funding from universities that allow anti-Semitic protests to continue.
