A student at Columbia University expressed 'regret' after he was caught on video saying Zionists shouldn't exist and it was possible he could murder them.

One of the student faces of far-left, anti-Israel protests at Columbia University, Khymani James, expressed 'regret' Friday after he went viral online for previously suggesting the murder of Zionists, whom he likened to 'White supremacists' and 'Nazis.' Without explicitly mentioning what they were, James copped to inflammatory comments that were first reported by The Daily Wire, during a livestream of an official Columbia inquiry.

' In a statement released to X Thursday, James expressed 'regret' for some of the rhetoric in his video but also complained that 'far right agitators' discovered his language in the first place. 'What I said was wrong,' James wrote. 'Every member of our community deserves to feel safe without qualification. I also want people to have more context for my words, which I regret.
