The Jew hate permeates every department and section of USC and UCLA. In football they are rivals. Now they have a new rivalry They are fighting to prove they hate Jews more than the other school. Professors at both schools, in the classrooms and on the quads shout, “from the desert to the sea”, the Hamas slogan to kill all Jews.
“The task force plans to meet with university leadership, students and staff, law enforcement and other community members.
“The President, Attorney General Pamela Bondi, and the entire Administration are committed to ensuring that no one should feel unsafe or unwelcome on campus because of their religion,” said task force member Leo Terrell. “The Task Force’s mandate is to bring the full force of the federal government to bear in our effort to eradicate Anti-Semitism, particularly in schools. These visits are just one of many steps this Administration is taking to deliver on that commitment.”
At this time the only difference between Gaza University, USC and UCLA is the language they speak—but they do speak the language of hate.
Federal antisemitism task force to visit UCLA, USC campuses months after protests
By FOX 11 Digital Team, 3/1/25 https://www.foxla.com/news/antisemitism-task-force-visit-usc-ucla
A federal task force is investigating antisemitism on college campuses across the U.S. The task force will visit 10 campuses, including USC and UCLA.
The Brief
- The Federal Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism will visit UCLA and USC to look into alleged incidents of antisemitism on campus.
- Both campuses were home to massive, extended protests over the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, which got violent at points.
- Exact dates for these visits have not been announced.
LOS ANGELES – The Federal Task Force to Combat Antisemitism announced this week that it will visit the campuses of UCLA and USC to investigate allegations of antisemitism on campus.
The announcement comes nearly one month after an executive order signed by Donald Trump calling for his administration to “combat anti-Semitism vigorously,” and months after massive pro-Palestine and pro-Israel protests broke out on both campuses in response to the war in Gaza.
Antisemitism task force to visit campuses
What we know:
The Department of Justice announced on Friday that the task force had informed 10 universities across the country that it would be visiting, saying it was “aware of allegations that the schools may have failed to protect Jewish students and faculty members from unlawful discrimination, in potential violation of federal law.”
The task force plans to meet with university leadership, students and staff, law enforcement and other community members.
“The President, Attorney General Pamela Bondi, and the entire Administration are committed to ensuring that no one should feel unsafe or unwelcome on campus because of their religion,” said task force member Leo Terrell. “The Task Force’s mandate is to bring the full force of the federal government to bear in our effort to eradicate Anti-Semitism, particularly in schools. These visits are just one of many steps this Administration is taking to deliver on that commitment.”
Protests on campus
The backstory:
During the spring 2024 semester, UCLA and USC’s campuses were both home to large-scale protests, both pro-Palestine and pro-Israel, in response to the Hamas attack against Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, and the ongoing war in Gaza.
Neither FOX 11’s crews nor SkyFOX spotted LAPD or UC’s campus police confronting the alleged agitators during the hours-long chaos at UCLA. At one point, members of a private security firm stood still as fists were flying and firecrackers were being tossed around just feet away.
Groups set up encampments on both campuses for days. At UCLA, dueling protests between the two factions broke out into violence, with brawls and firecrackers being shot for hours before police arrived to break it up.
In at least one instance, a Jewish UCLA student claims that pro-Palestine protesters kept him from going to parts of campus, keeping him from class, leading to at least one lawsuit against the university.
Pro-Palestine groups suspended
Dig deeper:
Demonstrations have continued in the months and weeks since on both campuses. In February, UCLA suspended two student groups — Students for Justice in Palestine and Graduate Students for Justice in Palestine — following allegations of vandalism and harassment at the home of a UC regent.
What we don’t know:
It was not immediately clear when the task force would be visiting the campuses or what recourse the universities could potentially face.
Other campuses investigated
Big picture view:
In addition to UCLA and USC, the task force will visit eight other college campuses across the U.S. facing similar allegations, including Columbia University, George Washington University, Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University, New York University, Northwestern University, UC Berkeley and the University of Minnesota.
