Pro-Palestine Protests Across UNITED STATES

 Amidst the ongoing wave of anti-Israel protests sweeping across American universities, numerous demonstrators have been taken into custody in recent days. In a single day, more than 200 protesters were arrested at esteemed institutions such as Northeastern University, Arizona State University, Indiana University, and Washington University.


Videos circulating on social media platforms depict scenes of chaos unfolding on various campuses. Anti-Israel protesters clashed violently with law enforcement, resulting in the forceful removal of several students. It has been reported that a staggering 900 individuals have been arrested over the course of the past ten days.

At Harvard University, the situation took a particularly symbolic turn. Demonstrators were captured on camera hoisting a Palestinian flag in a location typically reserved for the American flag. The video showcased three students at the prestigious Ivy League institution raising the Palestinian flag above the statue of John Harvard, where the Stars & Stripes should rightfully fly. In response, Harvard facilities staff promptly removed the flags, as their display violated university policy. The individuals involved in this act will face disciplinary action.

The University of Southern California also fell victim to vandalism during these protests. On April 27, individuals associated with the group illegally camping on campus reportedly defaced university property. The iconic Tommy Trojan statue and a fountain in Alumni Park were targeted. Despite repeated warnings, this group continued to disrupt campus operations and harass students, violating numerous university policies.


Washington University in St. Louis witnessed a significant protest as well. Over 80 pro-Palestinian demonstrators, including students, employees, and non-affiliated individuals, were arrested on Saturday. The group marched across the campus and even set up tents as part of their demonstration.
