A pro-Israel activist group hired a fleet of U-Haul trucks Thursday to demand the resignation of Columbia University President Minouche Shafik for failing to stop antisemitism on campus following her controversial testimony before Congress.
“Minouche Shafik, it’s time to resign and we’re here to help you move,” a mobile billboard on one of the trucks read as it drove past anti-Israel protesters who were demanding the destruction of Israel outside the Ivy League university.
At least two dozen marchers shouted slogans like “Settlers, settlers go back home, Palestine is ours alone” and “Resisting is justified when people are occupied” — referring to Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack on southern Israel, which killed about 1,200 people.
A second mobile billboard was also deployed outside Shafik’s official residence on Morningside Drive, a stone’s throw from the main campus, according to a press release from the group Accuracy in Media.
The bright red signs also included the web address “ColumbiaHatesJews.com,” which allowed supporter to send a message to the university demanding accountability of antisemitism among students and faculty.
