Students at one other Boston-area college are beneath hearth for his or her “obscene” feedback in assist of Hamas’ terrorist assaults on Israel.
The Tufts Students for Justice in Palestine group (Tufts SJP) not too long ago posted in favor of the terrorists, who slaughtered Israelis and took hostages over the weekend.
“Since Friday, Palestinians have been launching a historic attack on the colonizers,” Tufts SJP wrote in a letter. “Footage of liberation fighters from Gaza paragliding into occupied territory has especially shown the creativity necessary to take back stolen land.”
Tufts SJP’s remarks in assist of Hamas come after dozens of Harvard pupil teams blamed Israel for Hamas’ terrorist assaults.
In response to Tufts SJP’s letter, a Tufts University spokesperson mentioned in a press release, “Dismissing the loss of Israeli lives in the recent surprise attacks cannot be condoned. We deeply mourn those losses and vehemently disagree with the SJP statement. No student group speaks for the University.”
The Anti-Defamation League New England chapter ripped into the Tufts pupil group.
“Tufts SJP applauding the ‘creativity’ of Hamas in perpetrating atrocities, including murdering babies, is obscene,” ADL New England posted on social media.
Harvard’s president on Tuesday put out a press release following the coed teams’ letter that blamed Israel for the terrorist assaults.
“As the events of recent days continue to reverberate, let there be no doubt that I condemn the terrorist atrocities perpetrated by Hamas,” Harvard President Claudine Gay mentioned in a press release. “Such inhumanity is abhorrent, no matter one’s particular person views of the origins of longstanding conflicts within the area.
“Let me also state, on this matter as on others, that while our students have the right to speak for themselves, no student group — not even 30 student groups — speaks for Harvard University or its leadership,” the president added.
Harvard Hillel known as the coed teams’ letter an “outrageous statement that blames Israel for the violence carried out by Hamas terrorists — a group that has opposed peace and called for Israel’s destruction since it was founded.”
“Harvard Hillel is deeply pained that instead of finding solace and support among our Harvard community in the days following the bloodiest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, we encountered further hatred and anti-Semitism here in Cambridge,” Harvard Hillel wrote. “A joint statement by 36 campus organizations calling themselves the Harvard Palestine Solidarity Groups falsely blames Israel for Hamas’s vicious and cruel attacks on Israeli civilians and ignores the unbearable pain of the heinous murders, rapes, and kidnapping of Israeli men, women, and children.”
