In recent weeks, a wave of anti-Israel fervor has swept across college campuses in the United States, resulting in the arrest of nearly 2,200 protesters.

Ltaw enforcement officers have been compelled to deploy riot gear, tactical vehicles, and flash-bang devices to disband tent encampments and clear occupied buildings, aiming to restore order amidst the chaos.

An extremist on the mic says: "There’s only one solution, intifada revolution. We must have a revolution so we can have a socialist reconstruction of the USA."

These demonstrators are vocalizing their opposition to the Israel-Hamas conflict and expressing outrage over the escalating death toll among Palestinian civilians. As tensions escalate, campuses have become battlegrounds for ideological clashes.

At Columbia University, over 100 protesters were apprehended during a police crackdown, with officers forcibly removing demonstrators who had established a camp inside Hamilton Hall, an administrative building.

Simultaneously, on the opposite coast, police confronted a crowd of agitators at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Despite orders to disperse, protesters fortified their encampment with barricades made of plywood, pallets, and metal fences. Ultimately, law enforcement dismantled these barriers and arrested over 200 individuals.

Similar scenes unfolded at other institutions across the country. The University of Southern California, Dartmouth College, and the University of Texas at Austin were among the numerous campuses where arrests were made as tensions flared.

President Biden, after days of silence, finally addressed the upheaval, defending the right to peaceful protest while condemning acts of violence. The demonstrations, which initially began at Columbia University, have since spread to campuses nationwide, with students demanding an end to the Israel-Hamas conflict, which has claimed thousands of lives.

Despite the passionate displays of dissent, some schools have managed to reach agreements with protesters to avoid disruptions during commencements. However, the fervor shows no signs of abating as the conflict overseas continues to fuel activism on American campuses.
