1. Protest tents on a campus lawn at MIT
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Quinn Perian, MIT Student:
"I'm one of the organizers leading MIT Jews for Ceasefire and we're out here joining in this encampment because we know, as Jewish people, our liberation and our safety is tied up in the safety of the Palestinians and it's day 199 of genocide and that's far past the line."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Quinn Perian, MIT Student:
"At MIT in particular, we know that there has been immense complicity and direct involvement with the genocide that's going on. They've had over $11 million allocated in investments for projects directly relating to the Israeli Ministry of Defense in the past decade. And this is exceptionally direct. MIT is building the weapons that Israel and the Israeli military are using to terrorize and to bomb the Palestinians in Gaza."
5. Wide of tents
STORYLINE:
Students protest at on the campus of MIT Tuesday, with many of them calling for the university to divest from efforts that support Israel.
Several tents formed an encampment on a large grassy section of campus. Quinn Perian, an undergraduate student, helped organize the effort.
"At MIT in particular, we know that there has been immense complicity and direct involvement with the genocide that's going on. They've had over $11 million allocated in investments for projects directly relating to the Israeli Ministry of Defense in the past decade. And this is exceptionally direct. MIT is building the weapons that Israel and the Israeli military are using to terrorize and to bomb the Palestinians in Gaza," Perian said.

stupid people do and say stupid things, they later regret.
This guy is no Jew worthy of the title. He does NOT get it. He’s a fraud.
You've been indoctrinated and that guy is like a modern computer compared to an abacus, you.
@@heraclesreborn you've been brainwashed by a modern computer. if he is an abacus, you are just purely retarded.
@@heraclesreborn so you are saying you can't think for yourself and you need to depend on some self-proclaimed entity to spoonfeed you information so then you can regurgitate that bs without any form of critical thinking. unlike a modern computer, you have to find the answer with rational calculation and critical thinking. abacus is incapable of indoctrination but a modern computer is surely capable, so wtf are you on about tard?
I'd consider divesting when the protesters divest from Soros funding.
Students have every right to protest a conflict that could turn nuclear
@BarMagnet they have no right to demand our Government to ACT on every war that other countries start. Let them call on the Government of their own Country that they ran away from.
@@BarMagnet Not on private property, and if Trump can be gagged why can't these students be limited on when they speak?
There is no "Soros funding", dispose of the old B.S. canard.
@@fgv1001 There is Soros funding, your denial is old BS canard.
THEN THEY SHOULD DIVEST IN ALL MUSLIM COUNTRIES TOO
Right. Biden gave money to Iran that funded Hamas. Dementia
You're a backwoods carcass left in the sun for a week.
It is about war not religion
Just imagine if all weapon tech companies pull out of MiT and stop funding or hiring students.
Wow, good point. They’d have some really shitty weapons!
Why are you against Isreal
Then they would have to develop something that is unrelated to weapon. You think they will not find another way to invest the money they have? You think Walmart will close down if they are not allowed to sell alcohol? They will sell something else.
@@hawavideouploader weapon tech companies have been donating millions of dollars to MIT for decades. So mit is willing to lose tens of millions of donations along with millions in investments just to appease students? The students can go to school elsewhere!
@@jjmah7 tech companies would just invest their money into a different universities, and create a new “MIT”
Dude should take "how to talk" 101 immediately
😂 Actually hilarious
Nah, I'm sure he sounds like Christopher Hitchens compared to you. I bet he can also do tensor calculus yet you're commenting on his intelligence.
Just thinking the same thing.
@@xvLucario actually corny
Then the gap between you and him will be even wider
MIT needs to strip grants and boot out these troublemakers,set an example that students can’t act this way. Go to class,work,study and STFU about Geopolitics
As an American I say shut down MIT for good. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😝😝😝
We don't have to worry about "free Palestine" We now have to worry about "free America"
Can't repay their student loans but dictate how investments should be made. Interesting 🤔
how do you know he has student debt. Also, debt does not take away free speech. Read the Bill of Rights.
@@victormendez1231put down the crack pipe Nancy.
can't be a real human being without real empathy, but you still telling people how to live? interesting. oh wait, no it's not. you suck, pure and simple
Would you want your kids helping to design devices that are directly used for oppressive indiscriminate killing of men women children and infants??
@@victormendez1231 Don't even try to use fee of speech as an excuse. Why don't you try that freedom of speech where u work then wait and see if it works well for you 😮😅
Pure entitlement and stupidity.. give them a ticket to go and stand for this.. I'm sure they could use the help.
Look at all those uniform green tents! Not a grass roots protest.
Get a job…
Pay your own bills…
Do your job, get back on phone stealing Cc numbers.
that is pretty funny when you consider israel get billions in us taxpayer money yet they have universal healthcare and free college education. lol
Why dont you 5 year olds load up and go to gaza and help?
I hope y'all are enjoying your camping .
So, why not go and protest at the counties requesting the weapons instead?
Oh right, because here in the US, you can be as much of a brat as you wish without consequences
I thought MIT was supposed to have smart students. He doesn't even know what genocide is.
Maybe you’re the one that’s not smart. There’s literally an ICJ case going on right now where they’ve determined it’s plausible there is a genocide going on and have ordered Israel to stop their actions.
You literally have the intelligence of a chimp compared to any MIT student.
Community guidelines = censorship
You learned to do whatever you want. If it against your will you change to "karen".
So if the police are called in to remove the camps and arrests.. what will happen if the majority of students go on strike. Wouldn't that teach the university's, managers, lecturers who they are.
LOL. What a SCAM
If you want to see what hate looks like, walk by one of these “protests” with an Israeli flag.
🤣keep the spin going my guy.
They did, nothing happened lol. why you lying? clutching those pearls hard enough?
The video started out with a Jewish kids talking about being in the protest. What are you talking about?
@@nukleartaro490 Lol. Guess you didn’t have it happen to you since you support those who throws members of the LGBTQ community off buildings…
No these protests have ramped up the genocide. To clearly start hating Jews and your own nation for a terrorist group is a threat. Blood is not just on Hamas and ISREAL hands. I'll admit there was collateral damage. But this ramps up getting rid of the enemy because it shows the enemy is really a threat and doesn't want peace. Hamas has been screwing over PALASTIANs for years. Even.the bordering countries didn't want them in
Better MIT divests from the pretend "students".
They're being paid by taxpayers.
They got into MIT because MIT deemed them to be better than you. May be much better than you or you will ever be.
wow guys isnt so cool how they all got matching tents? twinning amirite??
no. u r definitely not right. it's called Target
@@RicoCollins sure, everyone just bought the same 3 tents, total coincidence
@@RicoCollins. No actually they were supplied these tents by an organization financially supported by George Soros. Organizations are supplying everything to them and some of them are even getting paid to orchestrate this whole thing….these people aren’t just doing this on their own. And this isn’t even about the Palestinians either….many speeches given at these “protests” are calling for the “Socialist reconstruction of the United States” and it’s on video. These students are also being told to go to other schools to “protest”…..some on video saying they don’t know what the protest is actually about but that they were told to show up and participate. This is all organized….and not by the students themselves…but by “activists” and organizations who want socialism to take over.
@@christianrk5747 It's not a coincidence. There was a small group of students that organized this. There is an interview with them. Maybe learn some media literacy and it wouldn't have been a mystery to you.
@@christianrk5747 You think that 30 people who go to the same school can't go to the same stores to buy affordable tents? How many people in Boston even own a tent? Nobody's funding this. You don't get grifter money for protesting a war -- you grifter money peddling a narrative.
How will this be twisted into being “antisemitic”…?
Probably from them calling for the genocide of all the Jews in Israel….
just moronic
Its easy to jump onto the hate Wägen. I swear ive read about this happening around mid 20th century, some guy convinced a whole nation to hate and they just blindly followed
@@mechwarrior13 Thats DEFINITELY what is happening here. Lmao
@@mechwarrior13 I know right!!? They’re literally calling for the Genocide of all the Jews in Israel and don’t even care. It’s sad to see history repeating itself…
protestors used to protest to show support, now theyre making demands like they have some kind of power, dorks
Protestors have always made demands lol you’re thinking of a rally
They have a lot of power. You can go back to watching QVC now.
@@heraclesreborn yeah they have the power to whine and cry like little babies with nothing else to do lmao
This student loan forgiveness makes sense now
No! You borrow in good faith...............you honor your debt in good faith! No free rides!
Doesn't look like a school to me....
It only accepts brilliant students so you don't have to pay any mind to it.
Silly children. You're supposed to be going to school for an education, not indoctrination.
Note to self: Do not hire anyone who attended these schools.
LOL, any educated person wouldn’t have any interest to work for someone names himself “MasterYoist”. Problem solved.
Why should they go to school and create weapons for Zionist Terrorists? I would stand against that so would anyone who loves peace. The Zionist Netanyahu regime doesn't want 2 states they want to use Hitler's final solution to exterminate all Palestinians and sieze their land.
@@FloatingEggShellwho^* clearly you've never had an education, Mr. FloatingEggShell.
silly boomer, you're supposed to be irrelevant
The students are better informed than the staff.
Even if I assume he's correct about MIT building weapons weapons for the IDF, MIT pulling it's funding would likely haze zero effect on the conflict in Gaza.
Not quite. MIT pulling its funding would send a powerful message and possibly lead to a domino effect of other institutions withdrawing funding from Israel and its sponsorship of terrorism.
Everyone of them were told to leave and they didn't...can't follow our laws go back home!!!
Sick of these rich kids ..
Students have every right to protest a conflict that could turn nuclear
Who the hell these people think they are to be telling the school what to do with their money?
They're Americans exercising their right to free speech. They're also the ones paying tuition to the schools.
idk man it's their tuition money that MIT is using
@@DavidLS1they don't have to go to that school. I don't tell my boss who to do business with but I can leave the job
Entitled college students who were probably gonna drop out anyways
The people that gave the school that money in the first place?
Rediculous! We will always support Israel!
Me too. Such ignorance. That occupation story is old and nosense
"Israel working to block feared ICC arrest warrants against PM, others over Gaza war" -- headline from The Times of Israel. 4/28/24

They don't even know what the word divest means.
Dude, you have no clue of how smart a student has to be in order to get accepted into MIT. You don't even know that you faceplanted yourself.
Demonstrating and protesting (peacefully) are as American as apple pie. If memory serves, this country was born from protest.
but apple pie isnt american its european.
@@shadowwalker3204 If you're American in the kitchen, what are you in the bathroom?
European.
Is a protests burning?
@@shadowwalker3204 I don't know why TH-cam deleted my joke...so I'll change one word and try again:
If you're American in the kitchen, what are you in the lavatory?
European.
But students are “peacefully” protesting to advocate for the nonexistence of an entire race of humans.
I'm a Beirut vet 1982-83. When I listen to these useful idiots it reaffirms my regret for serving in the US Navy.
What are they useful for?
You went to Beirut in 82-83 and you think the MIT students are the idiots? Talk about self-own.

as a jew myself... this guy should go to Gaza and tell them what he's doing to help... i bet $1000 he doesnt last 24hrs
🇮🇱🙏🏻🇮🇱
I pray nobody ever treats you like you treat other people.
yeah. that's because of Israel
@@andrewbecker1013your brainwashed if you believe protesting on American university campuses will do anything to change the outcome of a country defending its survival from a terrorist organization.
People across Gaza support the demonstrations through and through and hope to see them cause change
And MIT needs to keep right on backing Israel.
Academia created this mess. Now they have to deal with it. The manipulation knows no bounds.
Devest from Israel. I didn't know MIT was investing in Israel. Its more like corporate dollars support the school. So what ate these best and brightest asking for.
They have a university campus there. They want to close it
But Israel is not even in the top 10 countries American universities invest in.
Biden war. Oh btw, these people are camping in front of student center W20, so... it's much less intrusive.
In your first statement YOU SAID It's far past the line of genocide . Now in your wise wisdom do you think that Israel would be still fighting this war if Hamas had returned all the people that they had kidnapped? Would they be fighting against a people that were peace loving and not trying to wipe their race from extinction? If a group of people came in and raped your sister, killed your brother and took your Mother away as a hostage how would you feel?l would really be interested to know your true feelings, if you personally believed that you would not do anything in your power to save your family! Stop and think about what your saying. This is not a game, it is not a political statement.
Amen, well said!!!
oh i remember the "divest now" back with south africa..i wonder if people can re-use the same phrase or are people obligated to come up with new ones for new situations. it took a long time...but in the end apartheid did end. though i don't know how much was caused by the divest movement
This is ridiculous when a university kowtows to its students. There should be consequences to their actions and behavior like suspending or expulsion. Total weakness on the university’s part.
Clueless
Lemme guess, these kids watch Schindler’s list and are cheering for the German guards…
Yes 100% yes they do.
You are currently doing just that, cheering the IDF guards in the Palestinian concentration camp
@@Topher19801413 Israel is the current German guard. Ironic huh?
@@Orgcent21was it the IDF or the Hamas terrorists that want to "eradicate all Jewish people from the earth," similarly as the Nazis did? I'm just trying to understand why it's okay for Hamas to kill Jews but not IDF to kill Hamas?
@@nukleartaro490No, the other guys just lump together civilian and militant casualties.
Best and the brightest Ahh?
Isn't MIT a school -- it's not a manufacturing company --
And it's not just any school. It's a school teaching youth who make up a healthy chunk of America's brain trust.
Thats what he just said…...
You should learn about a subject before commenting. MIT does an enormous amount of research and development, including industrial innovation.
Too bad MIT went woke. They signed their demise like Columbia.
It's dumb college kids thinking they're geniuses of the generation
As a jewish student, why don't you ask Hamas to release your Jewish hostages? Shame on you!
Why cant both sides just make peace?
@@UnknownUserp371
Because both sides have been set up not to.
@@UnknownUserp371 Because Hamas doesn't recognize Israel's right to exist and Israel is unwilling to make peace with a group that will kill it and enslave its people at the first opportunity. Not to mention, the Palestinians haven't had elections since 2007 and have no legitimate government.
@@my1vicethat's a retarded thing to say
You are Occupiers, illegitimate illegal settllers,listen the real jew people dude, not illegal like you 😂
Who do these kids think they are ? They don’t even know any history, they obviously don’t even know what started this conflict.
You must've been born on October 6th if you think this conflict started on October 7th.
Yeah….thats not happening…
Yes, it is...
As an MIT graduate (1972) this video makes me very sad and upset. This idiot should focus his anger on bloody Hamas. Release the hostages and you will have peace. His hypocrisy is stunning. Why doesn't he protest about civilians being killed in Syria, Sudan, and Ukraine? How he was admitted to MIT is beyond me.
Why are you anti-American?
Hamas killed 1200 people on October 7th, Israel has killed 34,000+ people since then, almost half of which were children.
Woke joke!
Let's not forget the 100 hostages that Hamas supposedly still have and let's not forget the families of these hostages anguish. Where are the innocent hostages.
@@frogdeity Why are you so stupid? th-cam.com/video/OpBrlSLNH5E/w-d-xo.html
Any funding to these schools should be canceled.
So that brilliants students can produce dumb comments like you do?
MIT is now a safety school.
Our country needs to divest from these radical students. I hear Gaza is beautiful this time of year and the real estate is dirt cheap.
This poor child has forgotten all the Jewish hostages that hamas is holding. Poor confused little boy, his parents should have raised him better
And you’re a sad person who continues to be a 🐑 for the Zionists, who control the U.S. government and punish you for speaking out against them. Poor 🐑.
No, they remember the thousands of Palestinian hostages that have and are in Israeli prisons being tortured.
Do you seriously believe they should go to school to create weapons for Netanyahu's Terrorist Zionist Regime??
All the schools have Indoctrinated your children,Most Corporations as well
Stick to your studies. May I suggest a public speaking course?
When they’re studying for relevant degrees in social issues, they’re “useless liberal arts majors”, but when they’re studying in STEM fields they need to “stick to their studies”? Who *is* allowed to speak on this then?
the answer the poster doesn’t want to give is that no one is allow to question the status quo except for the elites.
They all voted for this. Welcome to the Biden Regime.
Trump is also a puppet for Israel.
Nope, it’s been going on since 1995, funding of Ivy League schools by Qatar and Saudi Arabia in the billions. Every President and cabinet is to blame.
Big bang theory on FOX constantly make fun of MIT education. Hahahaha.
Protest with ROBOT PLS, AI Robot
Anybody else just immediately not care what a protester has to say? 😂😂
Students, I am on your side.
So you are choosing to hate Jews? So you are like a Nazi?
Stop giving weapons to psychopaths
Have genocide meaning changed??? they suppose to be the smart ones😢
No, you that don't know the meaning. Israel is st a war. Hamas want to eliminate all jews from all world. This is genocide.
They are but you're not.
You can transfer to another school.
You can transfer yourself to the Zionists in Israel if you think these students should be creating weapons for the Terrorist Zionist Regime
