NYU officials deny this, but given today’s academic environment, there is absolutely nothing unbelievable about this claim.
“Jewish students sue NYU claiming university allows students to chant ‘gas the Jews,'” by Richard Percival, The JC, November 15, 2023 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
New York University (NYU) has been sued by three Jewish students for allegedly failing to protect them against “festering Jewish hatred permeating the school.”
Bella Ingber, Sabrina Maslavi and Saul Tawil accused the university of “egregious civil rights violations” by allegedly allowing students to chant antisemitic phrases like “gas the Jews” and “Hitler was right.”
In a lawsuit filed at Manhattan district court, the students claimed antisemitism had been a “growing institutional problem” at NYU even before the war between Israel and Hamas began last month.
The lawsuit also alleges Jewish students’ complaints are “ignored, slow-walked, or met with gaslighting” by NYU administrators.
According to the lawsuit, university president Linda Mills this month dismissed a petition from 4,000 NYU members expressing concern about antisemitism.
The three students in the lawsuit urge NYU to terminate employees and suspend or expel students responsible for antisemitic abuse and pay compensatory and punitive damages.
In one instance, Ingber and Maslavi said that while attending a silent vigil on 17 October supporting Israel, they saw nearby faculty and student members of on-campus pro-Palestinian groups burn an Israeli flag, make “slit-your-throat” gestures toward Jewish students and scream epithets….

Nazis /Nazism is one of the very few historical models which is totally rejected by all except those who wish to redo the Holocaust and exterminate the Jewish people once and for all. It doesn’t take a master degree to come to the conclusion that this very vocal group should be banned from all forums which include all universities and places of “learning”. There is no Freedom of Speech to call for Genocide of any ethnic, religious or racial population. Or did we not learn anything from the horrible experience of WW II, Hitler and Nazism and the millions who perished to stop Nazism from controlling Europe and possibly the world?
It is important to note that the Muslim populations of North Africa and the Middle East were more pro-Nazi than they were pro Allied forces until Hitler’s armies began to suffer big losses. Those Arabs most pro-Nazi happened to be Egyptian and Palestinian. Arafat was an Egyptian. The Mufti of Jerusalem, the most prominent spokesman for Palestinians would up living in Germany during the war and was in charge of a Nazi propaganda radio station which broadcast anti-Semitic calls into the Middle East for Arabs to kill Jews.
The mufti in face to face meetings with Hitler thanked him for his support of Arab causes, especially the Palestinian cause, to which Hitler had given clear support in his public speeches. In fact the Mufti. Mohammed Amin al-Husseini was more Nazi than the Nazis as he lectured the top Nazi leaders against the Allied offer to trade Jewish children for German POWs and actually convicted the Nazi regime not to do it! The children were shipped off to the crematoriums and the German POWs remained as prisoners. Such was his extreme hatred for Jews.

The Jewish and Christian communities need to form a group like CAIR to espouse their sentiments and fears. If one does not smile and bow to the Muslim desires, CAIR attempts and often wins large sums of money in court. We should learn from their success.

Glad that they are doing it. More and more Jews should file class action lawsuits against these schools, & force them to empty their Alumini coffers in the process
Lisel Sipes says
NYU should be defunded.
