Radical Leftists, Not Students, Behind Pro-Hamas ‘Uprising’ In US

-

ANALYSIS – Yes, it's an uprising and the participants will soon turn to violence. It's their plan. In case anyone hasn't noticed, the “campus protests” against Israel, and in favor of Hamas terrorists, are not really student-led.

They are funded by shadowy far-left groups like Soros' network but also potentially receiving funding from the Middle East and elsewhere. And they won't stop at campus “sleep-overs.” (RELATED: NYPD Commissioner Reports Startling Findings At Columbia Encampment)

As The Daily Mail reported: “Expensive tents, giant banners and adult agitators who have nothing to do with the schools where they're causing anarchy make experts think the uproar in America is a ‘professional job.'”

The outlet adds: “Organized encampments have appeared across the country's universities” and “Known agitators have been seen at several of the anti-Israel demonstrations.”

Mayor Eric Adams of City, heightened this when he said many of those arrested at Columbia and City University of New York, weren't students.

The CEO of Crowds on Demand, a company that provides paid protestors to various causes and events, claims his firm isn't behind the ongoing unrest.

However, as The Mail reports:

While his company is not taking the jobs, [Adam] Swart believes someone is, because as an expert on this type of operation, he recognizes the telltale signs pointing to big money behind a cause, like similar tents and expensive banners seen at Columbia University over the last week.

‘I do, to be , think there is money behind the pro-Palestine protests – 100 percent. I'm just saying we're staying out of it,' he said.

Swart said it's possible for tax-exempt advocacy organizations to not disclose their donors, and thus anyone could be funding their causes, opening the door to enemy foreign powers like China or Russia to sow discord in the US.

‘If this is coming from abroad, and I believe that it might be in some part, that is very troubling,' he added.

And The Mail notes that: “The People's Forum, a tax-exempt advocacy group who often hosts propaganda events for the regimes of countries like Venezuela and Cuba, has been accused of being behind the Columbia protests.”

Just as serious is the fact that these agitators and radical activists are pushing other protesters to ramp up their actions, to include taking over buildings, blocking military bases and fighting cops.

And it has already begun. Violent clashes between protesters and police have followed at various schools including UCLA and the University of  at Austin.

And on Thursday, dozens of protesters blocked access to one of the main gates at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, Waving flags, they vowed to “shut everything down” over U.S. military support for Israel's war in Gaza.

Another radical group, Palestinian Action US, which promotes “direct actions” such as vandalizing weapons companies with ties to Israel, released an egregious pamphlet calling for violence from anti-Israel activists. 

The group has more than 75K followers on Instagram.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reports:

The recent anti-Israel protests are often portrayed as a spontaneous uprising of student indignation against the Gaza war. But we're learning that behind the young idealists is an organized movement of leftists who want to spread disorder and whose candid strategy is to defy school administrators and police to achieve their radical goals.

A window on this movement is CrimethInc.com, a website that has become a hub for anarchists, Antifa activists and radical leftists. In recent weeks it has published anonymous reports from around the country drawing lessons from various campus protests. They reveal the method behind the mayhem—and a plan to use violence and break the law.

The New York Post adds more:

[The] website is encouraging anti-Israel student protesters to escalate the violent demonstrations — by urging them to hijack buildings, arm themselves, and use the protests as a “movement against the police.”

CrimethInc.com, which describes itself as a “rebel alliance,” analyzes the protests erupting across US campuses and gives students advice on how to up the ante.

“Organizers should not concern themselves with de-escalation or ‘remaining peaceful,'” one analysis of the encampment protest at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign read.

And how do they plan to fight the police?

“Plywood, insulation board, lumber, scrap wood, metal sheeting, garbage cans, and water barrels can all be used as raw materials, and some can even be sourced from campus dumpsters. Be creative and be brave,” the analysis's “strategic reflections” said.

The analysis of Cal Poly Humboldt also advised that “it is best to come to all demonstrations with goggles, gas masks, laser pointers, and shields.”

The website also told students to avoid negotiating with college administrators.

Rest assured. This anti-Israel, anti-American, far-left, terror supporting-movement won't stop at protesting peacefully. Things will get much worse, especially if they sense weakness like they did at Columbia University or UCLA. 

It's time for some law and order.
