NEW YORK (AP) — The pro-Palestinian demonstration that paralyzed Columbia University ended in dramatic fashion, with police carrying riot shields bursting into a building that protesters took over the previous night and making dozens of arrests. On the other side of the country, clashes broke out early Wednesday between dueling groups at the University of California, Los Angeles.

New York City officers entered Columbia’s campus late Tuesday after the university requested help, according to a statement released by a spokesperson. A tent encampment on the school’s grounds was cleared, along with Hamilton Hall where a stream of officers used a ladder to climb through a second-floor window.

Meanwhile, violence broke out at UCLA overnight between pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli protesters. Police wearing face shields formed a line but did not immediately intervene.

The clashes took place just outside a tent encampment, where pro-Palestinian protesters erected barricades and plywood for protection — and counter-protesters tried to pull them down.

    The answer is, it doesn’t. Just like the public financial statements of other companies, it’s a standard format report. They think you’re a moron and are treating you like one by saying “loOk at My PdF”.

    The person trying to “debate” you is just yet another Zionist playing disingenuous game of moving goalposts and confusing the dialogue.

    The demands are clear. Divest from the MIC members whose arms enable genocide. The president of the university said no, and protests started.
