<p>Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) visited the anti-Semitic protest encampment at Columbia University this week and praised its leadership, which comes after video went viral of one of the most vocal students in the protest saying earlier this year that “Zionists don’t deserve to live.”</p>
<p>Ocasio-Cortez traveled to the school on Friday where the demonstrations have generated national headlines for over a week.</p>
<p>&#8220;The leadership you have is so excellent,&#8221; Ocasio-Cortez told one of the activists. &#8220;It&#8217;s really special. It&#8217;s really amazing.&#8221;</p>

<p>The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/zionists-dont-deserve-to-live-meet-the-leader-of-columbia-universitys-anti-israel-encampment">unearthed</a> earlier this week that Khymani James, who CNN <a href="https://archive.is/PnL55#selection-2475.48-2475.70">described</a> as a &#8220;student protest leader,&#8221; openly stated in a live-stream of an official university inquiry in January that “Zionists don’t deserve to live.&#8221;</p>
<p>James, who was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/columbia-student-who-said-zionists-dont-deserve-to-live-reportedly-expelled?topStoryPosition=1">reportedly</a> barred from campus late this week, had claimed in a statement posted to social media on Friday that he was the victim of “far right agitators” who he said posted his remarks on social media “without context.”</p>
<p>In a video stream from January, he made the case for Zionists to die several times and stated “Zionists don’t deserve to live.”</p>
<p>James said he made the comment because he was feeling “unusually upset after an online mob targeted me because I am visibly queer and Black.”</p>
