Outside the gates of Columbia University on Friday afternoon, a man wearing a black balaclava was shouting about Jews.
Security guards, employed to guard the entrance after pro-Palestine students set up an “encampment” at the university in protest of the war in Gaza, looked unmoved by the man’s rant.
“Jews have total control of everything. Inflation is a result of greedy Wall Street Jews,” he shouted, holding a banner depicting an Israeli flag soaked in blood and the word “Nazis”.
