How close are we to violence from the anti-Israel extremists in Seattle?
Yingling, who is active in local anti-Israel activism, separately posted on the Palestine Solidarity Committee – Seattle Facebook page. The account amplifies local antisemites. It’s where Yingling warned of pending chaos.
“S**t is about to hit the fan (already is in other states). If anyone here is ready and willing to support/defend a student encampment, please DM and join us on Telegram. There will also be an encampment of asylum seekers in need of support,” she wrote.
In a statement to The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH, Yingling stated that characterizing their Telegram channel conversation as planning to physically harm cops and otherwise engaging with them to stop arrests are “pretty inaccurate assumptions.”
“We will support and defend students’ & asylum seekers’ rights to peacefully protest,” Yingling said.
Activist defends comments
When asked how the comments by Andrew were mischaracterized, Yingling explained, “It is important to address misinterpretations and ensure accuracy in discussions surrounding student activism and protests. The original poster did not intend those actions to be taken in the manner they’ve been portrayed. Thus, it’s important to clarify the context accurately.”
Yingling did not, however, clarify the context.
“Furthermore, as we uphold students’ rights to peaceful protest, it’s equally vital to foster conversations about best practices and nonviolent strategies,” she said. “These discussions should include ways to address instances where police abuse their power, emphasizing the importance of holding law enforcement accountable through lawful and constructive means. They need to be held accountable for their actions.”
