Pro-Hamas Groups Planting Seeds of Domestic Terrorism in U.S.
(Algemeiner) Dion J. Pierre - A new report by the Capital Research Center (CRC) think tank says domestic terrorism may be the end game for the over 150 pro-Hamas groups operating on colleges campuses across the U.S. According to the report, "the movement contains militant elements pushing it toward a wider, more severe campaign focused on property destruction and violence properly described as domestic terrorism. It demands the 'dismantlement' of America's 'colonialist,' 'imperialist,' or 'capitalist' system, often calling for the U.S. to be abolished as a country." The group most responsible for the anti-Israel protest movement is Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). Toolkits published by SJP herald Hamas for perpetrating mass casualties of civilians. SJP has endorsed Iran's attacks on Israel as well as its stated intention to overturn the U.S.-led world order. Other groups under its umbrella have called to "bring the intifada home." Pro-Hamas groups hope to create an army of revolutionaries willing to adopt Hamas's aims as their own.
