Hundreds of anti-Israel protesters broke down the door of Zellerbach Hall Monday night, preventing an Israeli speaker from a addressing Jewish students.

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.

    This is not the way to voice displeasure over what’s happening in Israel

      What is the way?

      Also can we disconnect anti-jewish from anti-israel? Israel through its actions is literally commiting genocide in Gaza. I work with people from Israel, jewish people that are horrified by the action their government is taking.
