Pro-Gaza, anti-Israel Columbia Zoomers to world media: “Speaking as militant, keffiyeh-wearing revolutionaries, we’ve occupied Hamilton Hall in order to dramatically demand an end to Israel’s policy of murder and terror in the Gaza Strip. But at the same time our stomachs are growling…waaahhh….Columbia University administrators need to send us food and drink…pizza and sodas anyway…waaahhh.”
I somehow don’t recall anything about radical student activist David Shapiro, who was notoriously photographed smoking a cigar while sitting at the desk of Columbia University president Grayson Kirk during a six-day revolt in late April of ’68…I don’t recall Shapiro or any of his SDS comrades demanding food. They either toughed it out or snuck out and grabbed takeout for the occupiers.

Student: The school is obligated to bring us food.
Reporter: But you guys put yourself in that position?
Student: Nobody is… pic.twitter.com/1qimmoQc8O
