Sueda Polat, a student organiser, told reporters that the university's negotiating position 'evidenced an elementary understanding of the words boycott and divest' and they would not 'be moved unless by force'.
Columbia University has been at the heart of a student protest movement calling on their institutions to cut ties with Israel and join calls for a ceasefire.

The Students change the World for Peace and Justice....
Not these terrorists
Yeah exactly these people 😂😂😂
Swedish millennial, thanking these brave and honorable students for representing the younger generations, who are locked out from politics! DO NOT STOP! ❤️ 🇸🇪
Peace Gaza 🕊️🕊️🕊️ Free Palestine 🇵🇸🙏🏼
free all hostages
@@GaneshM-xm8kgthe thousands of Palestinian hostages in Israeli prisons too?
You mean Hamas
salute these brave students putting their academic careers, years of hard work to gain admittance to these competitive schools, thousands of dollars of tuition, their security and property, to stand up for the rights of a beleaguered people who have been abused for 75 years at the hands of the Israeli ethnostate.
Is this sarcasm?
Apparently bright young students have enough self confidence not to be intimidated like the rest of us by establishment lies
Keep exercising your right to peaceful protest, students! Anyone who wants you punished for doing so is not a real American
It hasn’t been peaceful. That’s why it’s making headlines.
@@ABC-1234- when you rely on the major news networks that have a financial interest in AIPAC, then yes, the content you view will appear chaotic, and dare I say even unruly
@Moxie860 they are not supporting terrorists. But if we can't even agree on that one simple fact, I don't know what else to say
@@Balletcalvero The video doesn’t lie
@@ABC-1234- please find videos that highlight more than just the chaotic moments. I truly believe your perspective could change (if you are willing)
Students are our hope to free America from occupation of foreign power!
😂😂😂😂
I stand with the brave students they are on the right side of history!!!
Thank you Columbia University
I respect the freedom to protest but are people allowed to pitch tents in public places...?
It won't surprise me if those tents transform into brick houses in some years
It's time for lawyers to step up and start a petition is support of these students who have a right to protest and want peace. What is wrong with wanting PEACE Mr President?
What a joke! 34000? 700 000 Syrians have died and no ones protesting that! 🙄
Because they are not taking away Emerican tax $. where 000111srex1111 taking 26b of their tax $, annually
Don't be silly. It's not a joke because people also were killed somewhere else.
FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
It’s scripted and financed
Why don't you mention that Israel has been oppressing the Palestinians for the past 75 years
Divest

Palestine chose to go to war. That was a bad decision.
Yeah but you skipped a couple seasons of this series
You skipped the war before the war 😆 🤣 😂 😹
You live in a fool’s paradise
Why don't you mention the oppression of the Palestinians for the past 75 years
bro started watching from season 69420
Why are they not protesting problems here at home? Inflation, 80 yr olds running the country, housing costs. What about the country you live in? A stronger American can help the ailing world better with less money spent.
The U.S. government has recently approved a $95 billion aid package for Ukraine and Israel, which certainly raises some points for consideration
Because none of those issues are considered 'cool' or the 'latest thing'
🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉Free Palistine!!! go,Go,GO Leaders of tomorrow!!!❤
Go to Gaza it's better for you there than spreading hate in US.
If you're offended by calls for peace and the genocide to stop then the problem might be you
I am a Democrat. There Hamas supporters on campus scare me. I am voting for Trump this time. We need a strong president.
Courageous principle people. These guys are the future.
From the river to the sea Palestine shall be free
Kiss me?
Divest from Apartheid Israel. Free Palestine 🇵🇸.
Felony charges
Protesting should be a felony in the land of the "free"?
First Amendment is a scam in the US.
Weird comment
The U.S. and Russia; both places where you can be arrested for protesting war.
😭♥️🇧🇩🇧🇩🍉🇯🇴
authorities: do not allow terrorist flags & apparels to be displayed so aggressively in the great USA...ban all the illegal sales of such anti-national eye-sores
Boycott next semester
