FIELD REPORT FROM THE ENCAMPMENT AT SUNY NEW PALTZ
I spent several hours there last night, interviewing students. They’re on the grassy quad of the Dioxin Dorms, by Gage, Bliss, etc.
There was one other townie, who I’m in staying touch with (older lady with a white lab named Karma). Nobody from off-campus is involved or instigating; all handmade signage and widely diverse tents.
It’s about 100 kids, studying for finals. They are organized with security and food, and have published rules. I’ll send those later today.
They vetted me before they would let anyone talk to me and have a photo of my press ID. Well coordinated, non-central leadership.
No hostile rhetoric; the two guys I talked to were about 19 and had impressive command of a broad range of historic issues. I could not trip them up once.
They are not breaking any local or state laws, as it’s a 24-hour public campus, and they are also students. They are in violation of a campus code against sleeping outside. So I have no idea what the president would order their arrest for, as nothing they are doing even warrants an appearance ticket.
I explained at the end of one interview with two of the leaders that the president of the college has sole prerogative over whether police are invited in — not the chancellor, trustees, College Council, etc.
They understand they have to expel anyone who comes at them with hot talk, stirs aggression, etc., but I doubt that will be an issue. It was like Rainbow Gathering without any drugs or alcohol. No plans for any building takeovers; they just plan to hang out on the (slightly toxic) lawn, and get through finals.
Since Covid hit I have stopped watching any MSM … I get all my news from YouTube & Rumble. I found many freedom fighting journalists that I never heard of before & A few who were let go from MSM that I continued following…
I am shocked & dismayed & disgusted by how they are portraying the situation on the campuses on all MSM & how many of my so - called Free Speech Covid freedom fighters have become full supporters of cancel culture and speech deniers….
Many in the MAGA party are the biggest hypocrites & I am shocked 🫢 that they are believing all the crap 💩 of MSM ..
As a supporter of the Canadian trucker's convoy protests, I feel the same way. I wrote a post about it on FB and referred to my so-called fellow Freedom fighters as hypocrites. Either we believe that the right to protest is sacrosanct or we don't.
Can you explain? Are you saying the reporters who spoke out against covid protocols are supporting the protests, or supporting MSM, or something else? pardon my question, but I have some cognitive issues and am also trying to not pay attention to the media... So I'm genuinely curious as to what you are implying here. I have no opinion yet. I am deeply involved in a personal medical issue and am finally able to poke my head up in the world... Would you mind elaborating on your comment? If not, and you don't wish to take the time, I understand. Thank you for your consideration.
Yes. Reporters who spoke out against Covid Oppression & spent all of 2020 making fun of those who wanted to
declare all MAGA as racists … those same exact people are labeling all protesters as HAMAS & are for banning speech .. ex.. Rebel News .. many MAGA Republicans … any FOX news reporter .. Gutfeld is the WORST .. etc etc 🙏
sorry it's a little off topic, just want to chime in here quickly. Avi at rebel had no shame in revealing his intelligence level in October. Then it quickly became apparent how extremely Zionist rebel news is at its core. At first I thought Alexa quit, but she was just on vacation, and when she returned she joined right in.
Avi's coverage with his vest and helmet was rediculos. Now I only remain subscribed for an alternative view.
Rebel News never went beyond the "Pandemic"/"COVID-19"/"SARS-Cov-2” fraud narrative, only opposed shots and other "countermeasures." So this makes sense.
During the pandemic in NYC Lincoln would record covid news stories off the TELL A VISION and then get on his motorized bike recording the whole trip until he would arrive at said covid hotspot where Lincoln would record for hours with nary a word of commentary unless it was to interview or ask a question.
He exposed the makeshift central park hospital, the freezer trailers storing dead covid bodies, the javitts center, the USN hospital ship, all the hospitals in the NYC area simply by filming them for 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12 hours.
Lincolns videos and the comments from posters literally walk you though the fraud.
Well now Lincoln is at Columbia filming, asking questions and exposing the narrative spewed by liars who Tell A Vision of Hate.....check Lincoln out....you will love him....I do!
Oh, yes, Lincoln is excellent--I followed him too during the #FilmYourHospital movement. He did an excellent job exposing the fraud in NYC--he should actually get in touch with Jessica Hockett, who is going back through what happened in the Spring of NYC to get the numbers so high (looks like some might have been killed with too much oxygen, which is new info to me).
Some of the videos Lincoln posted during the pandemic b/s were made private due to receiving threats.
the videos of the refer trailers/morgues and the central park makeshift hospital did it for me. The fakery was evident and those participating were to busy following orders to think that something was not on the up and up, thus they perpetrated the fraud when in fact they believe they were being heroes.
Plus Lincoln's camera work is stellar.
In the central park makeshift recordings he zooms in on a central park police officer in his little three wheeled vehicle watching Lincoln's videos about central park hospital on youtube....I lost it...Lol!
The No Agenda podcast is also all over what a bunch of BS this is. Adam Curry & John C. Dvorak both have decades of media production & broadcast experience; what they do is media deconstruction.
All just another grift against America. Slight of hand, distract, confuse, anger, the populations, including this one. There’s a bigger picture out there and more things that each of us individually need to do it’s all we can do keep our integrity intact. Speak truth stay healthy show compassion.
A maga Christian friend told me he's in favor of the police using water cannons on protesters, that god is on isreal's side, and he also bought ivermectin to take if he gets sick. I felt disappointed that the left right divide and conquer ensares so many, and the industrial complexes profit regardless.
I think several things. The first is, how did students all across the country choose this as an event worthy of protest so early on in the conflict. Was it natural or created? I feel they had to have been fed information somehow.
Second, I think they were nudged into protest to put the conservatives firmly back into the pro-Israel box that some or many were starting to stray from. I mean, if a bunch of liberal kids think one way obviously that group must think the opposite.
Third, I think it is all being blown way out of proportion on both sides. Being used, as always, to cause strife and division. Oh, and to distract people from focusing on what is important and true.
When u say "so early on in the conflict", are you being sarcastic? Seems to me that the general population of the US was lazy, distracted, nervous, and took a while to act. If they/we had started speaking up sooner it may have saved a lot of innocent lives.
It’s been happening since 1948, The Nakba. We’ve witnessed atrocities thanks to Tik Tok and the brave journalists in occupied Palestine, over which 100 have been killed for just reporting what they have witnessed first hand. Our media does not show these horrors and as usual very biased. So many innocent people killed and maimed by bombs and now are being deliberately starved. I’m proud of the pro Palestine protesters. I’m upset about the attacks on professors by police at college protests, causing injury. There are decent and loving people in this world and “Let Love Rule” !!!!!!!!!!!!!
One could say it started in the 1880s when the colonial project first started in what was still the Ottoman Empire, the area which became the British Mandate of Palestine after WWI.
“…I am sympathetic to the Palestinians, absolutely, and also Israeli people (and I am Jewish, but the way the Israeli govt handled covid revealed a hatred of Jews—and where was the IDF on Oct 7? I suspect a false flag as provocation to level Gaza). However, are these protestors really helping Palestinian civilians? Or putting off those who might be critical of Israel, because they don’t want to be associated with these student protestors? They have been indoctrinated and are now being USED to make criticism of Israel a crime, I suspect“
All good points there. Neither the Israeli government nor Hamas is anything to admire. The folk on both sides have more in common than they realise. As is always the case.
I've been following this on twitter (I don't pay attention to MSM), and they seemed peaceful and pure to me (at least at first). I think as they became a threat (spreading to more campuses, calling attention to the genocide/slaughter), then they started to send in infiltrators to try to make them look bad. I don't buy the idea that these were orchestrated by Soros-if that was the case, then they would have been allowed to continue (just like the BLM riots that burned down cities for months on end). To see the treasonous whores in Congress (all politicians) spring to action for their Zionist masters confirmed my belief that Israel owns the US and State governments, and that America is an Israeli occupied territory.
I'm also completely disgusted with the conservatives and MAGA types--I thought they had changed when they finally admitted that the war on Iraq was a mistake and wanted to stop the endless wars. But as soon as 10/7 happened, they IMMEDIATELY bought the official MSM narrative, despite knowing all through the Trump years that the MSM was nothing but propaganda. But now with these protests, I'm even more disgusted with them as they have proven themselves to be utter FRAUDS when it comes to protecting free speech. And they are apparently buying the MSM narrative about the college protestors being "terrorists" and "terrorist supporters."
At this point, I'm completely hopeless--America is captured by a foreign power. We tax slaves for Israel and apparently have no right to speak against Israel's war and slaughter of children and babies that we are paying for. America is FINISHED.
As Pat Buchanan said decades ago, the US Congress is Israeli occupied territory--it's obvious who the govt works for. I've watched lots of these videos and saw nothing like what this Zio puppet says (though apparently, there was a pro-Israeli infiltrator who shouted "kill the Jews"- so they could get it on camera and make the protestors look bad.
Yesterday afternoon, Speaker Mike Johnson ominously declared that US campus protesters were "calling for the extermination" of all Jews, and their "violent" political speech was "literally" imported straight from Nazi Germany. Within hours, the NYPD shut down and raided Columbia.
I saw that video on Max blumenthal’s show. Just like on Jan 6th riots they showed a minuscule clip & cut out where the crowd started shouting the PLANT down …the grayzone is tremendous news source. I found them during 2016 Election. They are TRUTH tellers
As I got the sense through the mainstream headlines recently that the protests were picking up steam and spreading, I found myself overcome with emotion, Not soley or even particularly about Gaza was my emotion, but about everything status quo from Kennedy forward. Tempering it , of course, is all the wondering : Is this a genuine sense of protest or are the students being manipulated or are the reports of protests being manipulated. Or wishing that they were also protesting about the Covid lies, or in the case of Columbia, how in-bed their university is with pharma, or wishing they were also protesting about the obvious 9/11 truths.
What we're watching is the embodiment, writ large, of what I call "only personitis." The mind set that "I'm the only person who matters" or "my opinion is the only one that matters." Therefore, I can break windows and take over an administration building. Same thing happened on January 6. No excuse for either.
The Anti-Apartheid demonstration in 85 on Columbia's campus was a peaceful one. Yes they inhabited and took over Hamilton Hall for a while (same building that was raided tonight by police) but I don't believe they did so by breaking windows and going in-- they just went in as students and stayed as I recall (though it's a long time ago).
That demonstration was much more organic and actually completely student run (my friend Rob Jones was one of the leaders of it). As part of that, they also did a sleep out on the Low Library steps-- as a friend who participated pointed out "We brought our own bedding. These kids all have new tents supplied to them."
But this assemblage has threatened Jewish students, it's leader said "Zionists shouldn't be allowed to live" and I'm sorry, protest all you want but those are unacceptable things for a University to withstand-- they can't be tolerated by the University staff whose job it is to protect all students and provide a safe environment.
BREAKING: Pro-Israel Protesters Shoot More Fireworks Into Peaceful UCLA Encampment.
One student reportedly injured & carried away. The cops allow this. So far the Israeli supporters have been assaulting women, screaming the N Word, using pepper spray & fireworks. No punishment.
As universities ban encampments, what do Canadians think about on-campus protests? Around 81 per cent of Canadians see protesting on university campuses as “acceptable,” a new Angus Reid Institute poll found.
Getting to the Truth of Anything means wading through Centuries of misunderstandings, misinformation, ignorance; and allowing Others to think for you. None of the explanations of the Garden of Eden, the Tree of Knowledge and the Serpent hanging on its branch (nor how Adam & Eve were created) have, ever, been properly investigated. Or, if they have, have been mish-mashed into a nonsense by those who would keep the answers from us. As did so many of the so-called 'Holy Books.' Isn't it time we got down to asking Questions about what Humanity was intended for; and what it should not be? And why we've had so many Wars, since it began to ask the wrong ones?
JUST SPOKE TO ERIC ON THE PHONE (9:45PM 5/2/24 US PACIFIC TIME, 12:45AM EDT ON 5/3/24)
The encampment on the Quad at SUNY-New Paltz has just been busted, 60-80 cops in full riot gear, including county and state police, the 150 protesters arrested, people arrested away from the Quad too. This was a Columbia U style bust. Orders must have come from the governor, forcing campus president Wheeler to do this.
The vicious response to these student protestors started last year. My friend's daughter studies in the US, she was doxed for her pro-Palestine activism. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQeDZktRiIg

Early in the conflict? Like it hasn't been going on for over 75 years?
"Conflict" is sanitized language designed to whitewash the barbarism involved in a colonial occupation.
Colonial occupation coupled with genocide. The maps at the top of the page linked here below show it in living colors.
