Cal Poly Shuts Down Its Campus Until Autumn After Students Trash 'Intifada Hall'

We reported earlier about some turmoil amid the pro-Hamas protests going on at the campus of California Polytechnic University (Humbolt). It seems a self-proclaimed anarchist attempted to plant "sacred olives" outside of what is now known as "Intifada Hall," only to be scolded for planting "non-native species on occupied land." Speaking of Intifada Hall … what is peaceful about seizing control of the school's administrative building and calling it Intifada Hall? That doesn't sound antisemitic at all. Apparently Cal Poly has just given up the fight and closed down the campus until the fall semester. Here's a quick tour of the makeover the "protesters" have given to school property: California Polytechnic University (Humboldt) closes its campus until autumn. Anti-Israel students seized several buildings 5 days ago & hold them. There’s graffiti all over the walls & a building was renamed “Intifada Hall.”Show more

As you can see, the students have spray-painted just about every available space on the walls with messages like "Free Gaza," "End the Occupation," "Stop the Genocide," and "Blood on Your Hands." They've vandalized the building and renamed it Intifada Hall. Does defacing statues and signs convey a love of campus? What do angry activists mean when they chant “globalize the intifada” and “we love Hamas”? Do the SJP activists confuse these jihadist slogans of conquest and war for expressions of compromise and peace? Or do they hate us? So the administration has just abandoned several buildings to the "occupiers," who have been free to vandalize every square inch? Here's another university just caving to a bunch of Hamas sympathizers.
