Why doesn’t Columbia stop the protests? Because they don’t want to.

Dozens of anti-Israel protesters broke into an academic building at Columbia University and took it over early Tuesday morning - hours after the school began suspending students who refused to vacate their encampment.

Footage posted on social media shows numerous protesters milling about inside Hamilton Hall with some placing wooden chairs and tables in front of the doors to block others from entering shortly before 1 a.m.

Another shocking video shows a hammer-wielding demonstrator inside the building smash two windows of an exterior door and place what appears to be a bike lock around the door’s handles.
