Stefanik is a rising star. Meanwhile that President of Columbia is a sinking row boat.
Elise Stefanic makes me so proud to be an American. She reminds me of the girls I grew up with back in the day. Whip Smart, tough, clear spoken and courageous enough to call out a naked king. She’s a breath of fresh air in a world of yammering DEI hires.
Courageous enough to call out a naked king!?? Immediately after January 6th, she called out Trump for inciting the violence. Now, for her own naked quest for power she has completely changed her position. Your comment would make me laugh, if it didn't have such serious consequences for our country.
@@lucillesanders3865dude calm down.
@@RachelOfArcadia Now writing from a place of inner calm and peace, I ask the gentle reader to re-read what I wrote above, as I very calmly hold the same position. It is ok to call out hypocrisy especially when one of our "leaders" isn't just one of the loud-mouthed dumb as a rock (apology to rocks) MAGA sycophants. Stefanic is bright and knows just what she is doing, which makes much of her behavior unconscionable. Enjoy your calm, dude.
@@lucillesanders3865 you sound upset.
@@RachelOfArcadia 😂
This rector is a disaster, with no management skills, no leadership, no democratic convictions.
'We prefer not to hear it.' Every word out of Shafik's mouth is so ineptly political.
It’s admittedly enjoyable to watch her struggle with these questions though.
Why not ask for the reports of these so called discipline actions? The way she looked around and messed up here sentences.. tells me she was lieing.
I'm so glad I didn't apply to Columbia, even though I would have had legacy status.
Nobody needs this in their education.
Restricted on "where" they happen?? This is a higher learning institution?
Go Elise! Don't let 'em squirm out of it! No one ever questions them--that's why they are so pathetically clueless.
Would be interesting to learn how Jewish students at Columbia feel about everyday life at the University.
They have testified before congress, to say the least their time since 10/7 has been pretty miserable and they can't wait to graduate or transfer
@YonieZukowsky51
Two clicks on a search later: ‘Columbia-Barnard Jewish Voice for Peace’. Read all about their views on the JVP website (Another click, sorry) Here’s one:
“Instead of listening to the calls of Columbia and Barnard students to divest from the genocide perpetrated by the Israeli government, the university has called in the NYPD to arrest students, suspend them and even expel them. At present 85 students, 15 of whom are Jewish, are suspended.”
@@user-sz9yz5wb6xdamn, wonder how the muslin and arab students must be feeling then.
Certain chants are restricted to certain places? Obviously Jewish students need not apply if this is the case
Yes, they are restricted to anywhwere on campus, 12am to 12am, Monday to Sunday.
Shouldn't apply? This university shouldn't be open if that is the case. It's not a branch of Hitler's youth
Absolutely! She is not capable, she is failing. Shame on her!
Where is the f democracy that USA talks about
Democracy and Islam will never work. That's why majority of Islamic countries have authoritarian rule. You have a very twisted view of what democracy is.
Meaning of the words like terrorists, democracy, civilisation, anti semiotic, holocaust utterly replaced the real meaning what it was right now. I’m not sure how can but if I can be president of theUSA or I’ll have power more than the USA than I can apply to real meaning of those words or replace the meaning. The people who says Russia is aggressive and taking action against the same people saying Israel is civilised, democratic, Semitic and support them to do even utterly worse thing than what Russia is doing in Ukrain. Right now what is real meaning or what is truth?
Shafik and her colleagues can not even answer the most simple questions. If the board of a listed company would have the same kind of question by shareholders they would be fired on the spot if they could not answer satisfactory. Dussins of questions that they can not answer. They are incredibly incompetent for their jobs.
ThaNk you
The current antisemitic chant is
From the river to the sea
By any means
Totally unacceptable!
Even though Palestinians are semitic?
@@ManessahIsraelplease learn what antisemitism is. It’s not Semitic hatred. That’s like saying homosapiens can’t be homophobic because they’re both homo…
You oppose freedom for all?
@@ManessahIsrael I guess you also have Jewish friends.
@@JorgeRzezakif they can prove biblically that they are the biblical people known as Jew.
Disciplinary action against free speech.
there is no freedom of speech in USA - it is freedom of speech to say what makes them happy
it isn't protected. from the river to the sea is a threat. so not covered, I get it, you aren't rational, the trademark of anti-Semitism.
No, disciplinary action against hatred speech.
@@JorgeRzezak Hate speech is free speech. If you're for censorship of any kind you are against free speech.
@@_Nougatina Free speech, not free hatred, you must read it and interpret it correctly. The constitution was written by real democrats and intellectuals, they never promoted hatred.
Jeez, Elise. You’re in Congress, not South Beach. Throw on a blouse already.
Elise Stefanik for president!
Hey-Hey
Ho-Ho
Shafik has got to go
They give the word no meaning. Any criticism of Israel and Netanyahu seems off limits. Pity.
Free Palestine
Minouche Shafik.......ah hah, now it becomes obvious why she is so reluctant to speak the truth. Blood is thicker than water........thank you Israel 🙏
Great talking! But what will be done about it ? This is a circus
1. Shafik is Egyptian. So she supports the protesters. 2. And, in general, these protesters are so vile and aggressive that administrators are worried about their well-being or whether their home will be set ablaze or their tires slashed if they stand up for the Jewish students.
SHAME.
Has Shafik taken a presidential post at a university actually in Iran yet?
I feel v bad for the President of my Alma Mater Columbia University -- I wish in general the Student Code of Conduct was tightened up-even when I was there .
Pity the poor Ivy League presidents...they continue to answer questions like lawyers, not human beings.
It’s obvious she is bias and sugar coating the issue, kindly have her remove , thank you.
So we prefer not to see you in charge of Columbia
Stefanik is supper smart woman, pro American and right person. God bless her and her family.
Poor audio mixing, it's only playing on the left side.
AIPAC girl to be sure
All congress men and congress woman, God bless you for standing up for these Jewish kids. They truly need your support. When people of Columbia including the President close their eyes to these important facts, Thank you for your support.
Such one sided questions! Do these people even live in this world or Know what’s going on?
Stefanik should stick to her SNL career - she is a better comedian in that venue .
Not going to do a thing to those kids unless the funding is cut.
The President of Columbia with her evasive responses appears to be complicit in the on campus antisemitic behaviour.
Children throwing tantrums never have to face consequences it seems
From the river to the sea Palestine will be free
I love this lady congress women. Stay strong.
Elise Stefanik won't relent here. She's focused and astute. 🇺🇲
Focused on being a opportunist creep!
@@mikespector2👌🏻
All I heard was “we have … we have … ewwwwweweeeeee …”
Very telling of the times we live in. Bible says in the last days "they will make lies look like truth and call evil good" - Know the truth, what is right and let nothing & no one stop you to stand up for it. Whatever profession you are in, stand up, speak up against injustice- but don't be deceived.
she may be liking the '' river of never return ''😂😂
...I don't know about her, but the stand and steadfastness of the president of Harvard specific to the matter she was questioned and intimidated was really interesting.
It just proove how dangerous and farcical all that is with Élise Stephanik
So restrict calls for genocide, but allow some to be said………
Congress passed a resolution. Resolution is not a law.
Why is "to the river to the sea" anti-semetic?
It implies that the land from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea should be entirely Palestinian, hence erasing Israel in the process
Because it violates Zionist thinking and the Zionists are in control
@@bhaktichaudhary1797 Thank you!
minouche shafik is very good. She is clever
Why is she answering questions like my viva 😂
I thought only i was bad.. She set a new benchmark 😂
If you don't inforce rules and the law fairly to all,surprise, surprise you end up with a lawless country, Europe is the same.
Europe isn't a country. Same like africa, it isn't a country.
Conclusion from failed geography dismissed.
We’re she from?
Palestinian maybe 😂
Frankenstein's woke monster....
Just to be clear, that statement is panned if a pro Palestinian said it
But allowed if a pro isreali said it, correct?
🤣 the only violence shown is by the pro Palestinians... what a joke...Khaled
Chants should be restricted?
Just a thought, Go Rep Elise Stefanik, get her out, Obviously she is a one, left-sided bad prez.
Its time to send them home you want this wishy washy leaders of the university to raise the next generation of our youth😢
Hiw about from the river from the sea there will be osreal only..is this normal...
Start looking for another job, you’re done.
Uhhhh perfect example of hate speech ....
Translation; “no”. Compare that response to any non-woke speech…
This lady needs to be locked up
Won't be the first time a member of Congress went to jail
But Shafik herself is Egyptian, and probably a m3sl1m. So she prob anti-sem herself at the moment. The teachers were prob expressing out loud what she herself thought in secret, but couldn’t express given her position and salary. People are naive.
Stefanik is the latest McCarthy.
Excellent
minouche shafik
Illiterate and ignorant house education committee
LIAR !!
'"From the river to the sea" can be used in an anti-Semitic context, but it is not the only way the phrase is used by everyone'.
There, was that so hard to say?
Doesn't matter. The statement still significantly highlights the hatred of Jews and the state of Israel
There is no other way to say it though, if it's from the river to the sea, that means no Israel... This is antisemitic, I can not see any other way you can interpret that.
@@tigress1girl there are several other ways to say it, actually. To many supporters of the Palestinians, it expresses a hope that there will one day be peace coexistence with Israel. This forcing of the phrase to have one meaning and one meaning only is a blatant attempt to shape the narrative and silence pro-Palestinian voices.
@@HughCorner i mean the phrase itself has been hijacked
Antisemitism, it is very confusing
Intentionally
Some of the videos I see on Forbes are relatively balanced among the mainstreams from the beginning of the war though I haven't seen much, and it's interesting.
But about this ruthless intimidation of educational institutions in the us, it is really something I didn't expect to happen.
I mean just any politician can rampage in to this institutions and the educational systems in the us? I mean in their own ways these institutions are well respected across the world, how could the Americans allow such kinds of intimidations and disgracing to their respected institutions by many across the world? It is something not easy to believe it in the beginning but it is still happening again and again across different institutions in the country.
I mean how could the Americans allow such kinds of things to happen to their some how respected institutions by may across the world?
Liar!
Elise Stefanik kicking ass and taking names
sharia shafik
Élise Stephanik is genius ❤
People like her are just dangerous. Everything with her is farcical.
We often hear that anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. But they are quite permeable. Let's face it, it's not easy for someone to say he hates Jews nowadays. Naturally, people hide this hatred behind other concepts. Normally anti-Zionism does not and should not mean anti-Semitism. But the truth is not like that. Let's focus on its real meaning. Zionism means the ideal of a Jewish nation-state. Where is it? Israel. We are talking about a realized ideal. Therefore, if you speak knowing its meaning, it means you are against the Jewish nation-state. So to Israel, the only Jewish state in the world. I wonder what could be the reason. I think out loud: Anti-Semitism.
I condemn the swastika, we are seeing that all over. Condemn that !
She needs fired or removed also….. weakness and lack of moral compass. Can not speak with any convincing conviction.
🇵🇸
Can t answer questions,,and they are PROFESSORS.
Blah blah blah blah
Ask netanyahu, he has been saying it for years. Why shouldnt people be free? All of the people.
Nothing I saw on Oct. 7 made me want freedom for all. On the contrary. It settle my mind in regards to the danger of 21st century tribalism.
@@_Nougatina i guess you missed the Nakva then? Right of return? Having schoolchildten write messages on bombs going for ethnic cleansing?
Besides what one thinks of the phrase, one has the right to say. Anyway, it is not antisemitic.
Why all universities have women presidents
Cuz muh diversity and equality
The education sector has mostly women since the mid 1800s. Why shouldn't it be led by women?
Freedom for Palestinians "from the river to the sea" is not antisemitic.
KANYE WAS RIGHT
No!
@@The_Anglo_Saxon-Celtabsolutely he was
She is an absolute failure and should resign immediately.
That would further tip the House to the Democratic side...but since we have the uniparty...does it matter?
👏👏👏👏👏🇺🇲🥸
Be careful where you make your comments on youtube or you will be banned 😂😂😂
Palestinians are semites, so how can that slogan be antisemite?
Antisemitism refers to Jewish hatred. Not hatred of semites. That is like saying homosapiens cannot be homophobic because they are homos.
If Shafik doesn't resign, someone should dig up any history of plagiarism on her.
This woman must resign
"From the river to the sea" is in relation to the 6 day war where "Palestinians" tried pushing Israelites into the sea.
Hitler infilrators
Haavara/Transfer Agreement into Palestine
Do you know history? 😂
First off do you know the people in Israel today arent the Israelites but they are Israeli? Biblically they can't prove they are either and if I'm incorrect then biblically prove they are.
@@ManessahIsraelIncorrect
@@philcollins1255okay prove to me biblically that those people in Israel today are israelites,I triple dare ya
@@philcollins1255okay prove to me biblically those people in Israel today are israelites,I guarantee you cant
@@philcollins1255i guarantee you cant prove they're israelites biblically
May Israel Prevail 🇮🇱
We need to protect our freedom of speech from Israel.
She is Egyptian. Who do you think she has a soft spot for ? Muslim sympathisers or Israel , the country that beat them when they tried to invade (with other fellow muslim countries)?
From river to sea is not antisemetic at all.congrats
All you ever have to do when someone claims to be a jew or Jewish is ask them what makes them a jew biblically,I guarantee you they can't ever tell you.
@manessahisrael What does being able to identify oneself as 'biblically ' a Jew or religiously a Jew or even culturally a Jew have to do with anything? Do you really think the Jew haters are going to stop and ask them if they are 'biblically ' a Jew before they attempt to drive them from their land? I don't think that happened on 10.7 when those demonized Palestinians carried out their genocidal attack.
