The NYPD made alarming discoveries at a pro-Palestinian encampment on a college campus, including weapons and a terrorism-related book.
Deputy Commissioner Kaz Daughtry shared the concerning findings at Columbia University’s Hamilton Hall.
“Pencils, books, laptops, those are the tools of students and what you expect to find on a college campus.
But here’s what the NYPD found in Hamilton Hall at Columbia University after we were able to arrest the protestors and agitators for commandeering and barricading themselves inside the building.
Gas masks, ear plugs, helmets, goggles, tape, hammers, knives, ropes, and a book on TERRORISM,” he wrote.
“These are not the tools of students protesting, these are the tools of agitators, of people who were working on something nefarious.
Thankfully, your NYPD was able to prevent whatever they were planning and stop them before they could do it. Continue to peacefully and lawfully protest; but know that if you engage in illegal conduct, the NYPD will hold you responsible and hold you accountable—someone has to,” he added.

NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry, speaking to reporters, voiced apprehensions about the highly organized nature of the protests.
“I just want to say—and I’ve said it before—there is somebody behind this movement. There is some organization behind this movement,” said Daughtry.
“The level of organization that we’re seeing in both of these camps, here and at Columbia, is evident from the leaflets on how to protest, how to commit civil disobedience, what to do when you get arrested, and what to say to the police when they question you,” he added.
The NYPD’s Deputy Commissioner of Counterterrorism and Intelligence is reportedly taking a proactive role in investigating these concerns.
“There is somebody funding this; there is somebody radicalizing our students. Our Deputy Commissioner of Counterterrorism and Intelligence will find out who it is,” Daughtry said.
According to Fox News, some of the protest groups are linked to far-left organizations supported by George Soros.
These groups, such as National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP), have been accused of promoting anti-Israel sentiments and radical ideologies.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams has claimed that protests at Columbia University and City College of New York (CCNY) were influenced by external agitators associated with terrorist organizations.
Adams stated that the demonstrations were taken over by outside agitators connected to terrorist groups.
He referenced intelligence reports that pointed to individuals with terrorism-related backgrounds and affiliations among those who were arrested.

Come on, MAN! Those helmets were for when they rode their bikes to the terrorist sites. Don’t want to cause more carbon, the bombs create enough already.
And those hammers??? They were going to build some shelters for the illegal alien voters Joke Biden has invited.
That somebody is george soros and the lady seen on film at the beginning of these protests. She is on film and if you really want to grab those responsible, get the earl film of the protests and you will find who is responsible.
Otherwise, you are just giving lipservice to the public.
So why is it surprising to find tools of terrorism in a Pro+Palestine demonstration. You know terrorists and enemies of America are sneaking into the country along with the other ILLEGAL ALIENS. Another 9-11 attack is coming!

Since when would Brag or any of those NY legal eagles bother to hold a “piecefull protester” accountable for anything, they could burn down the city hall and nothing would be done.
Not surprised in the least. These RIOTS are profession organized and stage. The Marxist Left has been doing this for better than 30 years.
Our tax dollars are at work, funding universities like Columbia University, where anti-US sentiment runs rampant, thanks to George Soros and the like.
How many were held for trial – or were they all released to start again tomorrow. Until these terrorists are prosecuted and jailed, this mayhem will continue. Liberal DAs are part of this chaos. They should all be fired for not doing their job.
Americans, do you really understand Islam?
QUESTION: May an old soldier/cop with many years of experience combating all manner of terrorism ask all of you who are currently demonstrating in many different ways that you sympathize with and/or support varied Muslim causes (i.e. pro-Palestinian, anti-Jew, anti Israel, pro Hamas, anti-Christian, anti-America, pro-Iran, etc.) a question? Just how much do you know about the mandates/tasks given to Muslims over 1400 years ago by the Prophet himself? Suggest all those non-Muslims feeling and/or demonstrating sympathy for any/all Muslim causes take note. Muslims were charged over 1400 years ago to rid the world of non-believers, install Sharia as the law of the land, and establish Islam as the world’s only religion.
In 1982 a team of army officers were charged by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs after the kidnapping of an army general (December 1981) with the tasks of assessing the primary threats to DOD personnel deployed overseas, and developing doctrine for combating the same. The team presented the results of their assessment to the Reagan administration clearly identifying the ‘Primary Threat’ to DOD personnel in the spring of 1982. Take note, that ‘Primary Threat’ was then as it is today, except today it applies to ‘All Americans’. That ‘Primary Threat’ is the threat presented by radical Muslims to all non-believers. Like most of the so-called ‘Free World’ has been doing for many years, the Reagan administration did not take the team’s assessment to heart until over 200 military personnel were killed by a single Muslim suicide bomber in 1983. Sadly and tragically every democrat administration starting with Bill Clinton has downplayed the Muslim threat. Both of the George Bush’s turned their Counter-Muslim Terrorists campaigns into country building campaigns primary aimed at making trillions for the American Military/Industrial/Political Complex. Only Donald Trump attempted to find a compromise with Muslim world. As soon as Joe Biden stole the Presidency did we see how easy it was to negate Trump’s efforts and provide opportunities around the world for Muslim radicals to complete the tasks Mohammad gave them. What Joe Biden has done will more than likely enhance completion of the Muslim’s objectives beyond measure. As a Christian soldier I believe we have reached the point that the return of Jesus is the only hope of survival for the non-Muslim world.
Suggest all non-Muslims consider the words of one of the army officers who served on that 1982 team presented to a large gathering of college students at the invitation of their college shortly after the Biden administration abandoned many Americans and our Afghan allies when he literally surrendered to the Taliban.

A Counter-Terrorism Soldier’s Remarks.
“Americans still feeling sympathy for radical Muslims, LISTEN UP!
As an old soldier who was involved in counter-terrorism operations targeting Muslim terrorists for most of my military career I have something to say to those among you who are non-Islamic males and/or females, and a little something extra to say to you folks who are not sure as to which gender you want to be and/or want to be with. If you support Muslim terrorists activities and/or sympathize with the Muslim community in general suggest you carefully consider my words.
After I render my remarks I challenge all non-Islamic persons to carefully study the strategies/tactics presented by Mohammad (supposedly given to him by the angel Gabriel) for Muslims to employ in order to achieve one of their primary objectives, that of ridding the world of non-believers.
If after you have completed your studies (in which you will discover just how effective the Muslim community has been over the last 1400 years in achieving their objective of not only eliminating many non-believers, but terrorizing and/or brainwashing many others into becoming ‘good little believers’) you still support Muslims over any segment of the non-Muslim community, I suspect each of you may see the Muslim world from a different position after considering my remarks rendered next.
Though not a school trained human behavior expert in my opinion the Muslim sympathetic males among you are at worst want-a-be sadists, fools, and cowards. Similarly, the females among you are want-a-be masochists, fools, and cowards. In short, if you think you can continue your current life styles (including public behavior, dress, etc…) in the Muslim community you are in for a rude awakening. And, for you ‘gender differential folks’ who think Christians, Jews, Conservatives, others are less than supportive of your various preferences, let me share some of the more than just unpleasant experiences of my career. I cannot report the precise number of bodies of males and females I have encountered with their sexual parts removed and/or mutilated. According to some of my interpreters/guides I was witness to a standard practice used to persuade members of the Muslim community to follow the paths supposedly mandated by the Prophet and God for their assigned genders.
Though I cannot muster up a significant level of sympathy for those among you who have allowed various politicians, academicians, bureaucrats, and/or the media to completely load your brains with propaganda and/or pure BS about the Muslim community I will assist you in your conversion to Islam. Yes, believe it or not I teach classes on the eight prayers you will need to learn in order to begin your conversion to Islam (kind of my way of helping the cowards and wimps among you escape much unpleasantness). Oh, you will need to bring your own prayer rug.
Last, I do have some good news for you females who are considering conversion. When you convert to Islam you will save a lot of money on your wardrobe, makeup, education, social life, etc., etc., etc…, and most likely you will not have to work outside of your husband’s home!”
Note: Question/Answer session that followed was reported to have had several students asking very serious questions regarding the old soldier’s on the ground experiences. Wish I could have him give a like presentation today and let me ask the gathered college students one question.
“Imagine yourself living in an American town very close to the border of a neighboring state and you wake up one morning to the sounds of gun shots, explosions, and the screams of your neighbors. After you come out from your hiding place you learn that a mob from the neighboring state had not only destroyed many of the homes of your neighbors, but had killed, maimed, sexually assaulted, and/or kidnapped many women and children. What actions would you expect/demand the authorities in your town and/or state to commence post haste?”
