Anti-Israel radicals share guide for taking over university buildings
NY Post
A Big Apple anti-Israel group blasted out a how-to guide to seizing buildings as protests rocked universities in Manhattan.
Days after cops arrested over 100 Columbia University students and cleared a large anti-Israel encampment at its upper Manhattan campus, The Peoples Park radicals posted “The Do-It-Yourself Occupation Guide” on its Instagram account, which has 2,300 followers.
“We are sharing educational-only materials on tactical skills like holding down occupations *inside* of university buildings,” read the post, originally penned by the group Palestine Action US, which featured the hashtag “EscalateForGaza.”
The 32-page booklet details tips for breaking into abandoned and commercial buildings; diagrams and step-by-step guides for barricading doors; and advice for how to maintain control of an occupied space.
When “less-destructive methods [for entering a space] don’t work, more aggressive options are abundant. Use a crowbar to open a window. Cheap Milgard latches and latches on older aluminum windows often break in place,” the guide suggests.
It also included tips for how to create shields out of trash cans for protesters to defend themselves during a march onto a property, and advice for handling different alarm systems.
