Presidents of Harvard, MIT and UPenn Face House Committee on AntiSemitism on Campus

I saw a little of this on FOX this morning. They didn't stay with it though. I wish they did. The dangerous anti-semitism being allowed and even encouraged on college campus' is absolutely disgusting and I'm glad that it's being addressed in DC. What is happening on college campus' around the country isn't a freedom of speech issue ... it's threats and hateful fanatical fueled danger to innocent college students simply because they are Jewish. Jewish students aren't safe and the colleges aren't protecting them. It's just one small step away from another holocaust, which is something that some of these antiJewish protests are actually calling for.

Presidents of Harvard, MIT and UPenn Face House Committee on AntiSemitism on Campus

The presidents of Harvard, MIT and UPenn are being confronted Tuesday during a House committee hearing dedicated to confronting the surge in antisemitism seen on American college campuses in the wake of the Israel-Hamas war, as Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., pressed the trio about the "race-based ideology of the radical left" she said their institutions are supporting.

In her opening statement, Foxx, chair of the House Education and Workforce Committee, held a moment of silence "to recognize all the Israelis and others who have been killed, injured, or taken hostage by Hamas terrorists." Addressing the witnesses, Harvard University President Dr. Claudine Gay, University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill and Massachusetts Institute of Technology President Dr. Sally Kornbluth, Foxx said that "each of you will have a chance to answer to and atone for the many specific instances of vitriolic, hate-filled antisemitism on your respective campuses that have denied students the safe learning environment they are due."

Read the entire article. The GARBAGE being thrown at the Jewish students is sickening. The ignorance of the anti-semitic students and faculty is astounding. You would think people in 2023 would know better. Haven't any of these people been taught actual history? I don't think so. The overwhelming hate towards the Jewish students is perplexing. Where did it come from? Shades of Nazism. One small step away from another Holocaust.


Jews at Harvard, MIT, NYU and UPENN facing death threats, assault: ‘Back to 1939’

Jewish students attending four of the most prestigious universities in America recounted gut-wrenching experiences with antisemitism on their campuses Tuesday, with one saying school officers had spewed blood libels and another comparing the environment of hatred to before World War II.

House Republicans featured the four students at a press conference ahead of the presidents of American, Harvard, MIT and Penn testifying before the Committee on Education & the Workforce.

“An Israeli student whose identity and personal info was sold online for a bounty has not left his dorm room in weeks out of fear due to death threats,” said Talia Khan, the president of MIT’s Israel Alliance.

Khan also cited a survey of Jews on campus that found 70% felt forced to hide their identities out of fear.

Favorite quote:

"And now it is clear that Jews are at the bottom of the totem pole and without protection under this critical theory framework,"

And still always to blame.

Foxx quoting Schumer at length? Must be end times.

This is the time older people need to collectively say, "Shut the F up, you're in college, and mostly privileged 18-25 year olds don't know what they're talking about yet."

Freaking younger millennials and Gen Z.

I swear at one point Antisemitism was at the forefront of eradicating hate. But then they started teaching that it's institutional systematic hatred and it blurred all context.

I agree to blame the CRT stuff. Really backfiring now.

Israel zionism in its current context is equivocal to the USA segregation laws in the minds of stupid kids, because they lack context and experience. And while the USA did some screwed up things, this entire coming clean thing, now condemns all tactics that are seen sharing a thread with past institutional racism.

So to these stupid kids, Israel are the Whites and Palestinians are the blacks, because what they read, and are taught about, is reminiscent of this.

They read the studies that say, "50% of Israel Jews won't share a building with an Israeli Muslim." Or "Palestinians make $36 dollars for every Israeli Muslim's $56, for every Israeli Jew's $89."

They see more institutional racism by a prejudicial controling class. And their programming is to fight that.

Nevermind the charters of annihilation, the absolute religious appropriation, the 2 billion against 20 million, the systemic hatred taught by Muslim culture, the 75%+ Muslim concensus that Israel shouldn't exist that predates any annexation in 1967.

If you overlook that, and are a stupid college kid, Israel = Racist 50's America.

And that's what I think is happening at colleges. It's like something prevents the removal of short-sighted hatred no matter how it's approached.

And the response of being called into the House on anti-semitism -

Top University Presidents Plead Free Speech Over Campus Antisemitism

WASHINGTON – The presidents of Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology offered little more than excuses Tuesday for violent antisemitic demonstrations on their campuses in the wake of Hamas’ slaughter of 1,200 people across southern Israel Oct. 7 — even claiming such displays were part of a freewheeling culture of free speech.

Absolutely disgusting! And DANGEROUS!!

So…. By the prez’s logic they’d be okay with hundreds of people showing up at their universities and chanting “kill all blacks from coast to coast”. Guaranteed they wouldn’t tolerate it and change their tune real quick.

I agree with him. It's profound moral bankruptcy to allow the calling for genocide of Jews on college campus'. Nazi Germany has risen again. Unfreak'n believable!

Billionaire Bill Ackman demands president of Harvard resign after she refused to say if 'calling for the genocide of Jews' is harassment

A billionaire Harvard donor and alumnus has demanded the university president to resign after she refused to say that calling for the genocide of Jews was harassment.

Bill Ackman, a hedge fund manager who in 2014 gave $26 million to the university, said on Tuesday he was outraged by the performance of Claudine Gay.

Ackman, who is Jewish, accused her of 'profound moral bankruptcy' and said she and other university presidents who spoke at a Congressional hearing on Tuesday must 'resign in disgrace'.
