The remora of JPP
Hear me out... there is no evidence that he is pro-Hamas and that he harassed the Jewish students.

Again. You are simply ignoring facts that do not support your assumptions. Jewish students on the Columbia campus were harassed during these protests to the point where leaders told them to stay home, taking away their right to participate in the educational environment.
Once that line was crossed he was violating others' rights, this is where his problems began.
Cite the actual harassment. Use facts.
Not in California, or Illinois, or New York.

You can start there. I don't know what you know about The Atlantic but they are not what anyone would call a "right wing" publication.
The main reason their contracts became under scrutiny was because of the reports of the harassment of Jewish students.

Well, other than the facts it cites... that you ignore because they are inconvenient to the leftist mantra at the moment. I get that it is easy to ignore facts that do not fit into your comfortable confirmation bias, but it doesn't expand your mind or bode well for your future capacity to learn new things.
post the facts. Use police records.

Ah you were "joking".
Only people physically assaulted were protesters on UCLA campus beat up by pro-Israel students.

The fact is that there is no evidence as of yet that Khalil was pro-Hamas and that he harassed the Jewish students.

- Assault of an Israeli Student (October 2023): Following the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, an Israeli student at Columbia was assaulted in what the New York Police Department (NYPD) charged as a hate crime. This incident occurred amid rising tensions on campus due to anti-Israel protests. The university acknowledged the event, and it was reported that police were involved in investigating it as a hate crime.
- Punching of a Jewish Student (December 2024): On December 9, 2024, a Jewish Columbia University student was punched in the face by an anti-Israel activist during a protest against Barnard College, an affiliate of Columbia. The suspect stole the student’s Israeli flag, and when the student pursued, the assailant assaulted them. Columbia University Public Safety confirmed that the NYPD was investigating this as a robbery and hate crime, with the NYPD Hate Crime Task Force involved. New York Governor Kathy Hochul also stated that the New York State Hate Crime Task Force would assist in the investigation, indicating official police action.
- General Harassment Reports During Protests (2024): Throughout 2024, multiple reports emerged of Jewish students facing harassment during anti-Israel protests at Columbia. For instance, in April 2024, amid the "Gaza Solidarity Encampment," Jewish students reported being targeted with antisemitic vitriol, including chants and physical intimidation. The White House, New York Mayor Eric Adams, and Governor Kathy Hochul condemned these actions, and Adams noted an increased NYPD presence around Columbia’s campus to address such incidents. While specific police reports for each instance are not always detailed publicly, the NYPD confirmed they were investigating reported violations of law, including harassment, as stated by Deputy Commissioner Michael Gerber in April 2024.
- Broader Context of Police Involvement: Columbia University has repeatedly called on the NYPD to intervene during protest-related incidents. For example, in April 2024, over 100 protesters were arrested for trespassing during the encampment clearance, and in other instances, police were deployed to manage off-campus demonstrations that spilled over into harassment. The university’s statements, such as one in December 2024, emphasize collaboration with the NYPD to ensure safety and investigate hate crimes, suggesting that police reports were filed for significant incidents.
That would be incorrect. The article is about Columbia University which is in NYC. And inconveniently for you, the same university where your sordid hero led protests...
bye. You refuse to cite source.
WHY IT'S IMPORTANT
In one of the most violent incidents from U.S. protests related to the Israel-Gaza war, masked assailants, described by officials as "instigators," stormed the tent camp of pro-Palestinian protesters with clubs and poles. The encampment occupants said fireworks were also hurled at them.Jumpstart your morning with the latest legal news delivered straight to your inbox from The Daily Docket newsletter. Sign up here.
The situation continued for at least three hours into the early morning of May 1 before police moved in and restored order. The following night, hundreds of police officers raided the encampment, arresting over 200 people.
KEY QUOTES
"Not a single member of the mob attack was arrested that night, even though police and private security watched from just a few yards away as the attack raged for hours and was broadcast live to millions of people," the lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles superior court, said.The office of the University of California's president said the suit was being reviewed and the university rejects violence and "all forms of hate, harassment and discrimination."
CONTEXT
The disturbances thrust UCLA to the center of weeks of tensions at U.S. college campuses, which saw protests against Israel's ongoing military assault that has killed over 49,000 Palestinians in Gaza, according to Gaza's health ministry, and led to genocide and war crimes accusations that Israel denies.Israel's assault followed an October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas militants in which 1,200 people were killed and over 250 taken as hostages, Israeli tallies show.
The UCLA police chief who was criticized for the handling of the attack left the campus police department last year.

Third Story, a source (there are others but this one strikes me):
The last was my opinion and gave information which I did cite (including one from the University which finally started to act as they should have from the beginning)...
Anyway, you are purposefully ignorant. You ignore any and all information that doesn't fit into your own very small worldview to the detriment of your own ability to understand and empathize with others around you. Had this man led peaceful protests that did not harass a minority ethnic group I think he would never have had any trouble...
