Rep. Ilhan Omar asks Columbia University president if she has seen anti-Muslim or anti-Jewish protests on campus.

One of my colleagues asked you: have you seen any anti-Muslim protests on campus? I saw that we had pro-Israel protests on campus. No, no, no, but just a protest against Muslims. No I do not have. Have you seen one against the Arabs? No I do not have. Have you seen one against the Palestinians? No I do not have. Have you seen against one, against the Jewish people? Have you seen a demonstration saying we are against the Jewish people? No, I saw. Okay, thank you for this clarification. There was an increase in targeting and harassment against anti-war protesters because they were pro-war and anti-war protesters, that’s what it looks like, right? That’s right, there were some. Ok thank you. Activists on campus, including Jewish, Black and Brown, Arab and Muslim students. How many of the canceled organizations in Colombia involved Jewish students? One such organization is called Jewish Voices for Peace. Yes, and encompassed by Jewish students? Yes. All right.
