WATCH: Jewish Students Plead With University Amid Pro-Hamas Rally - 'They Want Us Dead'

On Thursday, a pro-Palestine rally was held at the University of Washington which saw hundreds of pro-Palestinian demonstrators take to UW's Red Square for a "Day of Resistance" leading to a number of Jewish students begging university administrators to shut down the demonstration.

"The fact that Palestinians have been living under terror regime of occupation for over 75 years. These moments are a manifestation of this oppression. It is the oppressed fighting the oppressor," said rally attendee Bissan Barghouti, per Fox 13 Seattle.

Clips of the protest show the demonstrators chanting "intifada revolution," "resistance is justified when people are occupied," and "free, free Palestine."

"[They] went missing for four days. They were found on Tuesday murdered. No one had found them for a very long time," said Jewish student Nina Carmeli in response to the rally. "I don’t know if it’s okay to come here and say that you're pro-resistance, when that resistance is killing your own people as well as the people in Israel. I know there’s a lot at stake."

In a clip that has garnered over 39 million views, a number of Jewish students called on the university to take action as the demonstration continued as the pro-Palestianian protesters called for jihad, the fight against the enemies of Islam, and justified the recent killing of over 1,300 Israeli civilians as "justified" for "occupation."

"They want our people dead. They want us killed," one girl yelled in between sobs. "Why are you allowing this? Why aren't you putting a stop to this? They want us dead. Please."

The scene was like many others throughout the United States on college campuses nationwide. Similar pro-Palestinian demonstrations that justified Hamas' atrocities also took place at George Washington University in D.C., the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Florida State, the University of South Florida, UCLA, UNC, and various other institutions of higher learning.

The war in Israel has allowed many on the left to show their true colors. Americans of all stripes should condemn the anti-Semitism seen on these college campuses. While those who support Palestine and justify the actions of Hamas have every right to their freedom of speech and freedom to assembly, their actions should result in both personal and professional consequences.
