UC Berkeley has been plagued by a number of arson fires recently. Last night a small fire broke out near Koshland Hall, on the northwest corner of campus.
Today, a
pro Palestinian group took responsibility for the act of eco-terrorism. Writing in the hard left "news" site, Indybay, they stated:
UCLA STUDENTS WERE ATTACKED LAST NIGHT SO WE RETALIATED WITH A FIREBOMB ON UCB CAMPUS
NOT SURE WHAT BUILDING IT EVEN WAS. HONESTLY DONT REALLY CARE. EVERY SINGLE BUILDING ON THE UC BERKELEY CAMPUS DESERVES TO BE INCINERATED FOLLOWING THE UC SYSTEM'S TREATMENT OF STUDENT PROTESTORS. LAST NIGHT THEY ATTACKED A YOUNG WOMAN STUDENT WHO WAS SPEAKING HER MIND ON A MEGAPHONE. SO WE UNLOADED A FIREBOMB ON THE SIDE OF A CAMPUS BUILDING. THE FLAME WAS BIG AND SPREAD ACROSS THE TREES AND BUSHES ON THE SIDE OF A BUILDING.
LONG LIVE THE STUDENT INTIFADA FOR PALESTINE LIBERATION
STOP THE GENOCIDE NOW
UC SYSTEM MUST DIVEST FROM ISRAEL OR FACE OUR WRATH OF REVENGE
BLESSED IS THE FLAME
Hezbollah anti-Israel Iranian proxies in Lebanon are responsible for setting over 2,500 acres in Northern Israel on fire. Is this a home-grown eco-terrorist group emulating Hezbollah, or is this simply an opportunistic claim?
Earlier this month, a
Berkeley police car was set on fire, "in solidarity with Palestine."
