Pro-terrorist student governments defund student activities.
Student government is a farce manufactured by leftist groups. It works like this. The small groups of ambitious students who actually run for student government positions have been mainly sidelined by leftist identity politics coalitions. The one actual job these groups have, to dispense student activity fees forcibly collected from students, were then redirected to funding various leftist, including pro-terrorist, causes.
Now as the new semester arrives, some of these student governments are ‘defunding’ student activities to pressure administrations into meeting their pro-terrorist demands.
They’ve gotten away with everything else so far, including the encampments, because most college students don’t care about student government, don’t vote or, if they do vote, follow along with whatever the student papers, who are run by the same leftists, tell them. (Yes, college really is a microcosm of our system.)
But what happens if the student governments do something that impacts students. And not just Jewish ones.
This happened at the New School in New York and now it’s happening at the University of Michigan.
The UM administration is looking for ways to fund student activities while working around the terrorists who have taken control of student government.
Meanwhile, students have paid in mandatory activity fees for activities they can’t use unless the terrorists get their way.
And the question is whether any lessons will be learned by students about the cost of letting leftist radicals and their Islamist allies control the process.

Freedom of speech is one thing. Freedom to support terrorism is not a thing. They should all be booted out of the college’s and be given 24 hours under Police supervision to pack for their one way trip to Gaza. Even if they were born in the USA they can still be removed, stripped of their citizenship and barred from ever returning The alternative being life in prison without parole..

“islam will prevail allah willing and the muslims will rule over the whole earth”
1.allah is NOT the Biblical God YHWH/Ha Shem.
allah/islam comes from the kaaba cult.Clearly allah/YHWH are NOT the same.
2.It is already owned by YHWH[why does allah of the kaaba cult not already own the world?
3.For Christians it is the Parousia
4.Jews may see it differently but DANIEL and ZECHARIAH are good prophetic sources..
5The diference between YHWH and allah can be found by following allah’s unwitting advice in koran 10:94
allah’s “torah” is NOT the Biblical Torah so allah missed entierly the Law of Moses… despitr confirming the Torah in koran 3:3
6JERUSALEM Zecharish 12 v 9 and the cosequences awaiting nations that make war on Israel Zechariah 14.12
7 I believe that Elijah would say that islam comes from the baal cult,islam is neither Abrahamic nor Biblical.hu ball is the god of the kaaba..allah comes from the kaaba
Where did the cult of baal that Elijah had to deal with,where did it go?What the koran teaches is in OPPOSITION to the laws of Moses.in islam Moses,lie Abraham,ridiculously, is a muslim

I don’t think anyone pro-Israel would last in student government. They’d be expelled.

Look at this stupid looking creature who thinks he will be able to rule over the women of his choice. And if he dies trying he will finally get lucky with 72 virgins. Why is he even near our collages and Universities.
