Anti-Israel and antisemitic protests are spreading across US college campuses, perversely energized by last week’s arrest of more than 100 students at Columbia University.

More than 150 protesters were arrested at nearby New York University (NYU) on Monday.

The universities have done little to quell the unrest and the protesters have faced little in the way of disciplinary action, while Jewish students remain threatened.

Of those arrested at Columbia and NYU, none will face criminal charges and all have been released, The New York Post reported on Wednesday.

“They’ll keep getting arrested and go back out and keep doing the same thing because this is all a performative game for them,” a law enforcement source told the paper. “It’s a game because the system doesn’t hold them accountable for their nightly temper tantrums.”
