'F**k Israel, long live the Intifada' angry mob screams at Jewish UC student

(The Jerusalem Post) An angry anti-Israel mob at the University of California at Irvine chased a Jewish student into a building while chanting anti-Semitic epithets after she tried to attend a campus screening of an Israeli documentary last Wednesday, the Observer reported.

The angry mob proceeded to pound intimidatingly on the windows and doors while shouting "Long live the Intifada!" and "F**k Israel!"
In contrast to the Kopley's response to the irate horde of protesters, the UC Irvine campus group Students for Justice in Palestine lauded the mob's behavior and labeled their intimidation techniques a success.
Academic centers across the United States have seen an uptick in increasingly vehement anti-Israel sentiment, particularly in California.
“For years, Jewish students have been subjected to anti-Semitism. For years, we have been forced to wear the badges of our politicized identities. For years, UC administrators have allowed anti-Semitism to go unchecked. For years, we have suffered in silence. But we endure in silence no more,” a group of students at Friday’s meeting said in a joint statement to the regents.
