    This isn't just something the Zionist state does in Palestine.

    Last week at Columbia University, former IDF soldiers who may or may not have studied there sprayed a Palestinian Solidarity campaign with skunk. Several of them had to be admitted to the hospital.

    This was, essentially, a terror attack against s peaceful protest, using a chemical weapon, by military members of a foreign power.

    Columbia University began by trying to ignore it, originally refusing to comment and instead putting out a statement about how Jewish students had a right to feel safe on campus (one of the groups at the protest was in fact Jewish Voice for Peace). The university has been shamed into putting out a generic statement saying that there's an investigation, but nothing has happened since and they wouldn't even publicly say what they were investigating.

    Meanwhile students have reported thr university ignoring them and trying to pressure them into shutting up about it in public.
