‘Death to America’: Campus Student Groups Express Solidarity With Iran, Call for Uprising Against US

Category: WARS & RUMORS OF WARS

Summary:
Following a joint U.S.-Israel military operation that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other officials, several anti-Zionist student groups across the U.S. expressed solidarity with Islamism and jihad, with some calling for an end to the U.S. "settler colonial project." The Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD) group, unaffiliated officially with Columbia University, posted "Death to America" slogans and shared messages supporting Iran's resistance against Israel. Columbia University condemned CUAD for falsely claiming university affiliation, and other Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) chapters at institutions like New York University and the University of Chicago also held demonstrations criticizing U.S. actions. CUAD and related groups have promoted armed struggle and endorsed Hamas, while U.S. experts called for officials to consider consequences for those openly supporting terrorism on U.S. campuses.

Scripture: Proverbs 6:16-19 (NASB 1977)
"There are six things which the LORD hates, Yes, seven which are an abomination to Him: A false witness who utters lies, And one who spreads strife among brothers."

Commentary:
When slogans celebrate death and armed struggle, it isn’t just “speech”—it is strife being planted. It’s ugly. Same-day chants, posters, and masked crowds on campus show how fast distant conflict can be imported and amplified. Scripture treats lying and stirring division as not merely bad manners but moral offense before God. This kind of polarization fits the prophetic pattern of escalating hostility and hardened allegiances surrounding Israel and the nations. Israel stands on covenant land God gave her, so unrest tied to that land carries unique weight.

Prophetic Trend:
Campus activism is increasingly merging ideology with open celebration of violence, reflecting the wider hardening of alliances and hostility around Israel and America.

This should not be a controversial position.” In other posts, the group shared an April 24 tweet in which Khamenei told pro-Hamas college students, who were in the middle of convulsing higher education institutions with illegal building occupations and antisemitic hate crimes, that they are “on the right side of history” and another which said “Iran has every right to defend itself against zionist [sic] warfare....
