Danielle Sobkin, one of the organizers who invited Israeli lawyer Ran Bar Yoshafat, said the mob grabbed a sophomore who tried to attend the event, called him a “dirty Jew” and spit on him. She said that protesters also shoved a senior into the auditorium door as she tried to check in attendees, and that they grabbed a freshman by her neck.

      Imagine thinking that anything that shows, even remotely, some opposition to what jewish people do is antisemitism.

          Sure thing buddy. This antisemitism that you’re talking about is happenening right now because people are awful. It has absolutely nothing to do with the genocide in Gaza. Nothing! In fact we have been experiencing “antisemitism” for ages at Berkley every time a jewish speaker was invited to talk. /s

          How disconnected are you from the real world?
