A Columbia group's antisemitic newspaper sparks controversy among NY lawmakers, prompting an investigation by the university.

An antisemitic newspaper called "The Columbia Intifada" is being distributed by students at Columbia University, prompting one New York lawmaker to demand action.

On campus, students from an anti-Israel club distributed newspapers with articles such as "Zionist Peace Means Palestinian Blood" and "The Myth of the Two-State Solution," according to the New York Post. The authors' identities were not revealed.

"Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., suggested that Columbia University should lose federal funding and its tax-exempt status if it fails to protect Jewish students on its campus. He also proposed deporting students who engage in an "intifada" against American students of the Jewish faith while studying at the university."

The Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine X account posted images of a newspaper, which they referred to as their "official newspaper."

Columbia issued a statement about the paper on Friday.

"We condemn the use of the Columbia name for a publication that promotes violence and makes individuals in our community feel targeted. Discrimination and promoting violence or terror are not acceptable and go against our community's values. We are investigating this incident through our applicable offices and policies."

The publication disturbed some Jewish students, according to the Post.

Brooke Chasalow, 20, stated that when she sees things like the title "Myth of the Two-State Solution," those people do not desire peace.

Another student who declined to reveal her identity stated that she is "supportive."

She told the Post that she supports the variety of thoughts in a school when we're being restricted.

During the spring semester, Ivy League university faced anti-Israel protests, leading to the cancellation of its university-wide commencement and implementation of campus safety changes before the start of the new academic year, which began earlier this fall.
