I'm a #UCLA professor. Why didn't the administration stop last night's egregious violence? : The university should have anticipated Tuesday night’s chaos — but security personnel were nowhere to be found（Opinion by David N. Myers | Forward, 2024-05-01）
------
"What makes last night all the more inexplicable was that the university had, over the weekend, seen a haunting warning of what could happen."
"... even they were greeted with insulting words from the other [Pro-Israeli] side, as were members of a small contingent of a local chapter of Standing Together who came bearing signs calling for peace and equality for Palestinians and Jews."
"Before Tuesday ... In the face of immense pressure, UCLA Chancellor Gene Block managed to keep the peace."
"... There has also been increasing pressure on the university from outside forces, including the Jewish Federation, to act more forcefully against the demonstrators."
