U.S. Campus Groups Condemn Israel after Hamas Massacre of Israelis
(Free Press) Nellie Bowles - Nearly 2,000 sociologists signed a letter that Israel was committing "genocide" and anything Hamas does is justified. The University of California, Berkeley Ethnic Studies Faculty Council released a statement condemning anyone who describes what Hamas did as "terrorism," which is offensive. The student leader of a Wellesley residential house wrote to the entire dorm she oversees: "We firmly believe that there should be no space, no consideration, and no support for Zionism within the Wellesley College community." Harvard launched a task force to help ensure the pro-Hamas protesters feel safe and can get jobs. At George Washington University, students projected onto the side of the school library: "Free Palestine from the river to the sea." At Stanford, students are asking the school to pay for round-trip tickets for Muslim students to visit home. At Cooper Union, pro-Hamas protesters chased a clutch of Jewish students into the library and pounded on the doors. Librarians reportedly offered to hide the students in the attic. UCLA professors are offering extra credit for students who go to pro-Hamas rallies.
