A Princeton student is going viral this week for saying she’s “starving” after going on a voluntary hunger strike to protest Israel’s war against Hamas.
“We are both hot and cold at the same time. We are all immunocompromised and based on the university’s meeting yesterday with some of our bargaining team, they would love to continue physically weakening us because they can’t stand to say no to unjust murder,” she said to cheers.
“I will say I truly do not feel like I am doing anything special. This is my choice, and I would not spend my birthday doing anything other than being here,” she said.
“No matter how physically weak we may be, united we have never been stronger,” she added as the crowd began to chant, “The people united will never be defeated!”

From The New York Post:
A student-led hunger strike began Friday, with protesters demanding the school meet with them to discuss divestment and drop the criminal and disciplinary charges against two students who were arrested for erecting tents and 13 other peers who were arrested for trespassing an academic hall last month, Princeton’s student newspaper, the Daily Princetonian, reported Monday.
…
According to the student newspaper, at least 15 students were taking part in the hunger strike Sunday night.
It was not immediately clear how that number may have changed throughout the week.
School president Christopher Eisgruber, graduate school dean Rodney Priestley and Amaney Jamal, dean of the School of Public and International Affairs, told students in an email Tuesday that administrators were working with the protesters.

The only reason not to jail this idiot is that she seems to be mentally ill. She makes a conscious choice to commit suicide, and beg the world to rescue her. No, we will not bargain with you. You have all the food and water you need. If you feel badly due to your hunger, your remedy is waiting for you. If you are evil enough to believe you can manipulate the world with your stupidity, your demise will be a boon for the gene pool.
Go get a job like the rest of us
Will they also hold their breath till they turn blue?
Let them ALL starve to death!
Interesting how she can speak after not eating for 105 hrs. I am sure she is eating….nonetheless she forgets one big point…all of the horrible things she mentioned were caused by Hamas. Guess what…she can’t say that because if she did she would have to run for her life….welcome to reality.
College is the new middle school/high school. Why is anyone shocked at this stupidity?
She forgot to mention that, besides the fact that she’s starving, she’s also insane and stupid and evil
Dumb idiot! If you are hungry go and eat. If you don’t want to eat, then shut up. Lowlife animal.
Starve to death.
