At the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), vice-chancellor Mary Osako said, “horrific acts of violence occurred at the encampment tonight”.
At Columbia University in New York, police arrested protesters nearly 24 hours after they took over an academic building.
US universities have been gripped by protests as students demanded a boycott of companies and individuals with ties to Israel.

It's nuts that Americans watching this are ok with it.
@Badgerbeard
Dear BBC your definition of "impartiality" needs reviewing because it seems your version includes dissembling. On the basis of your own photographic evidence – who perpetrated the violence? Perhaps you should start up a team to check the facts. Perhaps call it "BBC verify".
@Kuhmuhnistische_Partei
I like how they tried to frame it as "violence on both sides" and then Dylan Winward comes in and just says what's going on, clearly communicating that the violence comes from the counter protesters and they are just like "… Interesting".
@TheEggroll4321
The org that sets these protests up is the SJP, Students for Justice in Palestine. Their largest donors are the Rockefellers and George Soros. Point the blame where it needs to go.
@AZBCDE
This is ridiculous, why is the university not doing anything about this
@249cubegame
The police should be neutral! And there’s a misleading title!

Did Hamas start this? I believe not, because since 1948, Israel has been trying to clear the Palestinians from the area by occupying their land. But why? Is this the fault of the Jews? Of course not. The Europeans, specifically the Germans, committed genocide against the Jews, creating an unsafe environment for them in Europe. This led to the idea of Zionism, which claimed that Jews had a right to have a country. This idea could be seen as justified, given that Jews suffered centuries of persecution, torture, and genocides. There is arguably no group more capable of understanding the impact of genocide and torture. However, some extreme governments seem to forget this lesson. They capture Palestinian land and homes, and continue to kill Palestinians not just in Gaza but elsewhere. European politicians, especially those in Germany, might support Zionism due to their historical responsibility, but they should not support the mass killing of Palestinians.
I believe that 90% of Israeli people are peaceful and can coexist with people of all religions. This issue is not about religion but rather about the ambitions of certain politicians who aim to create a country from the river to the sea. We need peace and we need day zero to start the game again as this game didnt go well for anyone.

The “encampment” is backed by terrorists.

The current American government and the Israeli Prime Minister are very dangerous for the people of this peaceful world, so the people of the peace-loving world must be saved from these madmen.
@foxter_4375
I thank the American students that they live in such a high class but have such beautiful humanity in them. I thank them from the bottom of my heart and the solidarity of this movement.

America's democracy is not safe in the hands of sick Biden and crazy Trump. America must not hand over power from these crazy people to the young generation or America's destruction is inevitable.
