An Israeli professor at Columbia University wants New York Governor Kathy Hochul to deploy the National Guard to the school to combat pro-Palestine protestors amid the ongoing war on Gaza, which has seen ethnoreligious conflicts from the Middle East spill over into the diversified United States.
Jewish-Israeli Columbia University professor, Shai Davidai has quickly become the face of the pro-Israel faction of demonstrators at Columbia University, after going viral while casting himself as a victim of students and school employees that he and his peers claim are Hamas supporters and neo-Nazis, because they’re protesting against Israel’s war effort and America’s funding of it.
In one video clip, Davidai, who is surrounded by a crowd that’s waving Israeli flags, clamors in a foreign accent for New York Governor Kathy Hochul to send in the National Guard, to confront pro-Palestine and anti-Israel demonstrators, and called for the impeachment of several politicians who he claimed aren’t doing enough to back Israel and its supporters in the United States.
“Mayor Eric Adams, if you can’t do something, we’ll make sure we vote you out or impeach you,” Davidai shouts in the video clip, before moving on to New York Governor Kathy Hochul.
“Kathy Hochul! You have the National Guard! You have terrorists in a university, at New York! That’s your state! Bring in the National Guard!” he shouted, before declaring that “we are going to rid this country of terrorists and terrorist supporters” – apparently by way of military force.
Ironically, at the end of his tirade, Davidai claimed that he supports free speech, but that regardless, he wants the National Guard to combat people he disagrees with and who insult his foreign home nation.
