The New York City Police Department (NYPD) has revealed that officers found signs that included the slogans used by Islamic terrorists and America’s enemies while clearing out anti-Israel protesters from the NYC college campus.
Police officers are sharing examples of the material that they found while breaking up an “illegal encampment” at New York University on Friday.
Cleaning crews were called in to remove tents and sweep away the belongings left behind by the protesters.
NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry shared various photos of “inflammatory literature and signage” found at the protest.
Among the materials recovered from the scene were signs that carried the terrorist slogan “Death to America.”
“The NYPD proudly protects everyone’s right to free speech and peaceful protest,” Daughtry said in the post, before sharing the signage.
One piece of literature found on the site explicitly calls for “Death to America” and “Death to Israeli real estate.”
The signs urged protesters to “destroy zionist business interests everywhere.”
“Long live the intifada [uprising against the Jewish state],” the signs declare.
NYPD Chief John Chell spoke to reporters on Friday about the discovery.
Chell confirmed the NYPD had two operations “at the request of school presidents.”
Police ran operations at New York University and The New School in NYC.
He confirmed that officers arrested 56 people, with no incidents.
The police chief noted that “99%” of those arrested were students.
“You will not find a truce from us,” one sign recovered from the protest area said.
“Enough with De-Escalation Trainings: Where are the Escalation Trainings!” added another.
On April 22, police went to NYU and arrested more than 100 students.
The students held a demonstration in solidarity with the students at Columbia University.
On Wednesday, the anti-Israel agitators had already re-established the encampment on the campus.
They were allegedly there to oppose Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza.
However, as Slay News reported, some of the leftist students even admitted they had no idea why they were protesting.
One young woman was asked on video why she was protesting.
However, she struggles to answer when asked what the “goal” of the demonstration was.
“I think the goal is just showing our support for Palestine and demanding that NYU stops — I honestly don’t know all of what NYU is doing,” she tells the interviewer.
“I really don’t know,” she admits.
“I’m pretty sure they are…”
She then asks her friend for help in explaining.
“Do you know what NYU is doing?” she asks.
They both admit they have no idea.
“I wish I was more educated,” the friend, who is wearing a Covid mask outdoors, admits.
“I’m not [educated] either,” the first woman adds.
