White House Slams "Grotesque" Displays of Antisemitism on College Campuses
(Times of Israel) Jacob Magid - "Amidst the rise in poisonous, antisemitic rhetoric and hate crimes that President Biden has fought against for years, there is an extremely disturbing pattern of antisemitic messages being conveyed on college campuses," White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates told the Times of Israel. "Just over the past week, we've seen protests and statements on college campuses that call for the annihilation of the State of Israel, for genocide against the Jewish people. Jewish students have even had to barricade themselves inside buildings. These grotesque sentiments and actions shock the conscience and turn the stomach." "Delegitimizing the State of Israel while praising the Hamas terrorist murderers who burned innocent people alive, or targeting Jewish students, is the definition of unacceptable - and the definition of antisemitism."
