Anti-Israel, pro-Hamas protestors are back in full hateful swing as a new academic year begins across the country.
Incoming freshmen from Jewish Baruch College were attending a welcome event at a Midtown Manhattan event this week, where the depraved protestors taunted them.
The video shows the protestors taunting attendees by referencing the six hostages recently murdered by Hamas terrorists, including Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23.
A student group from the college, Hillel at Baruch, posted the disturbing video and said the following, “At what should have been a warm welcome for new students at our annual Welcome Back Dinner at the kosher restaurant Mr. Broadway in midtown, we were met with hate instead.”
The protestors shouted hateful comments including, “You ain’t going home tonight,” “Go back to Brooklyn,” “All Zionists are terrorists,” ‘Baby killers,” and “Where’s Hersh, you ugly a– b—h? Go bring them home bi***.”
Not satisfied with just hurling hate, the protestors also allegedly physically assaulted one of the organization’s staff members.
Hillel at Baruch added, “This is the reality Jewish students are facing today on American college campuses.”
Watch:
The disturbing behavior was not isolated to the welcome event. Protestors are also directly targeting Hillel organizations on college campuses.
Hillel International is the largest Jewish campus organization in the world and works with thousands of college students at more than 850 colleges and communities globally.
Watch:
Outside Hillel at Baruch College, demonstrators chant, “Baruch Hillel, go to hell.” When Jewish students say we don’t feel safe on campus, this is why.

It is disheartening to witness such blatant hatred and discrimination towards Jewish students in an academic setting. The rise of anti-Israel sentiment and pro-Hamas protests only serves to create a hostile environment for those who are simply trying to pursue their education. As members of a diverse community, it is vital that we stand against such bigotry and work towards fostering a more inclusive and tolerant atmosphere on college campuses.
Instances like the one at Baruch College highlight the importance of organizations like Hillel International, which provide support and a sense of community for Jewish students around the world. By amplifying the voices of those affected by hate and discrimination, we can work towards creating a safer space for all individuals to learn and grow.
As we navigate through the complexities of campus life, it is crucial to remember that education should be a beacon of enlightenment and progress, not a battleground for divisive ideologies. By promoting understanding, empathy, and mutual respect, we can build a brighter future for generations to come.
