Re: Harvard, President Claudine Gay sent an email link to the community with an unlisted youtube video yesterday, but it's been making the rounds on social media today. In the video she calls Harvard campus an absolute free speech zone for even the most outrageous opinions.

I guess she flips a switch and activates Absolute Free Speech when terrorist supporters celebrate mass murder, and flips it back off again when anyone says anything even vaguely politically incorrect.

Other prominent people have been resigning in protest at how she's handled things.

YouTube Dislike addon broke today but it's getting an update.
I want to see that ratio.

Where is their statement on Hamas? Do they have one?

I'd like to see their proof, personally. People who would indiscriminately murder hundreds of innocents at a music festival would certainly firebomb their own people in a hospital to create propaganda.

They do actually, though not on the recent attacks but rather on their bloody government

Palestine: Impunity for Arbitrary Arrests, Torture

Palestinian authorities are systematically mistreating and torturing Palestinians in detention, including critics and opponents.

Good thread

Yeah, what's the problem with this? They should ask questions why despite living in such shitty conditions Gaza is multiplying like crazy.

It's how you build an army. The old fashioned way. Their scripture literally tells them to do this.

Oh, AP reporter deleting his deranged tweets already.

I meant a statement that Hamas was committing genocide and "war crimes" last week. Is there one?

York University faces calls to decertify student union over statement of solidarity with Palestinians | Globalnews.ca

"They were supporting the terrorist attacks of Hamas on Israel that butchered innocent civilians," Liberal MP Anthony Housefather told Global News on Friday.

They suck. They start with a conclusion and seek out evidence to confirm it, regardless of the credibility of the evidence.

Hamas-Led Attack in Southern Israel Kills Hundreds

Deliberately killing civilians is a war crime, as is hostage-taking. All parties to the conflict are obliged to respect the laws of war. No matter what the other side does, no one has the right to target civilians.

Same... It's heartbreaking and Hamas WILL rue the day they ever adopted this way of thinking and living

When the animals have reached the point where they‘re murdering kids and innocent people, then it seems to me that every nation on the planet should be sending their military in to put an end to the bullshit.

 

[Raven117]

That Harvard President is an absolute fool. You want to have free speech, hey man, go for it. But apply it equally or it isn’t free. It’s sanctioned speech.

So Harvard is sanctioning antisemitic speech that actually threatens physical harm to other members of its student body.

Let that all sink in. They are cowards (at best)

The article is from last year... And they're not criticizing Israel... They're criticizing Palestinian Authorities:

(Jerusalem) – Palestinian authorities are systematically mistreating and torturing Palestinians in detention, including critics and opponents, Human Rights Watch said today in a parallel report submitted jointly to the United Nations Committee Against Torture with the Palestinian rights group Lawyers for Justice. Torture, both by the Fatah-led Palestinian Authority (PA) in the West Bank and Hamas authorities in Gaza, may amount to crimes against humanity, given its systematic nature over many years.

Never go full R my bro.

Malcolm Nance is ex-Navy and as of a few months ago he was fighting in Ukraine against Russians. He's telling Black Lives Matter Chicago to delete a tweet about Palestine and Hamas, which they seem they did.

I read it backwards. I don’t use twitter or any social media

I'm so tired of the antisemitism/islamophobia buzz words. You can support the Palestinian cause without being an anti-semite. Likewise, being pro-Israel doesn't make you Islamophobic.

This is the war of victimhood.

Can you support Palestine and not be antisemitic? Seems everyone over there is pretty clear on their stance towards Jews, dude.

Weak, mediocre people in charge of prominent institutions.

 

[Mossybrew]

I've been wondering why we don't see more of this - IDF has air superiority over the area, and it's immediately obvious where these rockets are coming from upon launch. You'd think they would have aircraft loitering and ready to immediately target these areas.

You don't have to be Palestinian to support Palestine. Is everyone who supports Israel an Israeli?

Of course not.

But that doesn’t change my point. Or yours.

Sorry you don’t like that rhetoric, but that’s the very real reality of it right now. Folks outwardly supporting Palestine (especially the state and not the caveat of citizens) is at the very least hold Israel to a different standard than others, and likely, deep down, antisemitic

Is there not a bunch of this? Many of the bombings are going after such quick launch platforms and Hamas hiding behind hospitals and shit

There's no reason to think being pro-Israel would make you Islamophobic. Israel doesnt hunt down muslims to mass murder.

However, its not necessarily easy to distinguish concern for Palestinians that stops short of a terrorist organization advancing their cause through indiscriminate violence.

I mentioned this yesterday, but these pro palestinian crowds dont at all seem against Hamas, and many are openly saying they are not. They seem like they are celebrating it without outright saying it.

There we go...

Truthfully, I support Israel way more than Palestine.

Unfortunately, people wanna use shit leftist ideology, call someone the magic buzz word, and have them tarred and feathered. If some American college kid has a Palestinian flag in his window, or some reporter has a bias, fucking suck it up. This is a foreign war.

And I agree with you. There's a lot of hate out there. I have a bunch of Jewish friends since childhood, one of whom who's actually in Israel right now, and boy do they have some choice words for Arabs. Also have heard many Americans over the years say things like I wish they'd just crater it all so we can hit the reset button. That's life.

Israel is likely to take a chunk of Palestine over the course of the next year or so and the legitimacy of it all will be a topic of conversation among reasonable people.

 

[-Zelda-]

"Funny" how liberals and era types will deny that Palestinian Hamas terrorists are raping and murdering women, when they are the biggest people reeeeing about "believe all women."

There's a massive difference between individual jews who dont like Arabs, and the state of Israel's goals as a whole. They are not on a racist quest for genocide. The other side is.

It is entertaining watching how the pro-Israel liberals are dealing with the crazies in their own party that are defending Hamas. The BLM Chicago tweet must have been a huge wake up call to a lot of them.
