US official vows to imprison pro-Palestine protesters

WORLD, Feb. 28 (YPA) -Leo Terrell, head of the US Department of Justice (DOJ) task force on anti-Semitism, announced his plans for lengthy prison punishments for those who protested against Israel during its genocide in Gaza.

“We are going to put these people in jail—not for 24 hours, but for years,” Terrell told Israeli broadcaster Channel 12.

Terrell also vowed to “financially attack” the universities where such demonstrations took place.

The announcement came as students at Columbia University began fresh pro-Palestinian protests after two students were expelled for their anti-genocide activism.

The decision to imprison anti-Israel students comes despite the fact that US President Donald Trump declared his intention to “stop all government censorship” and “bring back free speech to America” during his inauguration speech.
