Footage taken late Friday night of a tense confrontation between pro-Palestine demonstrators and pro-Israel counter-protesters at the encampment revealed it was a pro-Israel student demonstrator who said “Kill the Jews,” asking the pro-Palestine demonstrators “anybody on board; anybody on board?”

Hours later, the same statement was used by Northeastern as a part of the reason for clearing out the “Gaza solidarity encampment” in Centennial Common, which resulted in the detainment of over 100 individuals.

      Unrelated to the incident you’re referring to, but during the 2020 wildfires here in oregon, proudboys and maga types were out searching the countryside for BLM activists. They’d heard via police scanners that BLM were setting up checkpoints and denying entry to fire-affected areas. Which was absolutely true - since that’s what the Bureau of Land Management is supposed to do.
