‘Vile anti-Semitic pogroms’: Greg Sheridan on ‘very serious situation’ at universities in US

The Australian Foreign Editor Greg Sheridan says university campuses across the United States are facing the “very serious situation” of “vile anti-Semitic pogroms”. New York’s Columbia University has cancelled in-person classes due to rising tensions over pro-Palestinian demonstrations. More than a hundred people have been arrested on campus since the rallies began. “I think it’s a very serious situation for America,” Mr Sheridan told Sky News Australia. “It’s part of the breakdown of civility and basic willingness to abide by the law in America. “It’s a complex situation. “What you’ve got now in campuses across America is a situation of vile anti-Semitic pogroms which are reminiscent of Europe in the 19th century.”
