Rantz: Are the pro-Hamas, Columbia University student protesters the new Black Lives Matter radicals?

Police take security measures as demonstrators gather outside Columbia University to support the students'"Gaza Solidarity Encampment" demonstration held on South Lawn of Columbia University campus.

presented the post-arrest demonstration and encampment as celebratory “with dancing and pizza,” as if it wasn’t fueled by hate. “Planning to stay all night, they were in a rather upbeat mood, noshing on donated pizza and snacks. An impromptu dance party had even broken out,” the report said. It sounds a lot like the media claims that CHAZ was like a street festival.cheering the activists on. It makes sense: This is their base.

After Seattle police responded to BLM and Antifa violence, then-mayor Jenny Durkan caved to the perpetually outraged activist mob. Not wanting to suffer political consequences for letting police arrest progressive activists, even though they were violent, Durkan ceded six city blocks to armed radicals. She even ordered the East Precinct emptied. Her political cowardice created CHAZ.

They’re expressing outrage, as they did after the pre-CHAZ arrests. And they’re threatening political consequences, which threatens President Joe Biden’s chance of re-election. Politicians know what’s on the line, as was the case with Durkan).
