The only reason now is that they are criticizing victims of terror and praising terrorists. Normally they don't get any pushback with their anti-semitic rants. Probably why they are surprised now.
This whole thread is nothing but.....................

It is a religious war, and the US should stay out of it.

I did notice that many that want to expel the students, expel all Muslims, or expel anyone that actually knows the history, thus does not blindly support Israel, also would probably expel some of our own citizens of color, but then, they wouldn't have a scapegoat!

The right has looked as bad as the left by condemning all of the members of a group based on the actions of a few.

Try reading some history, and not being directed by MSM. Maybe if you want free speech without consequences, allow others the same right!

***Check to see whose human rights are violated. Tip: It isn't the people of Israel whose rights are violated.
I wouldn't say "all", because that simply is untrue. And it looks like there are democrats and republicans who condemn those who support these acts of evil.

Drips? Screams of it, actually.

"Those they cant criticize." is one of many phrases used repeatedly by people who hate Jews.

May as well throw in a "Rothschild" or "banking cartel" reference.

I voted to expel from Harvard because, theoretically, any deep vetting of candidates from Harvard would reveal their viewpoints. Everyone now researches FB, Insta, etc.

It made my day to hear some existing job offers were rescinded based on these students' support of Hamas.

From not caring about George Floyd and white supremacy and voting maga or being agaisnt Israel. Kids these days both right and left need to be careful of what they say me personally I don't think people should be fired or blacklisted. Let's have a conversation first to see where one person's mind is.

But universities should be academic institutions, not institutions to compel political conformity.
Shouldn't the student body of Harvard contain different geo political points of view?

Ugh, the Palestinian cause wants to massacre Jews and erase Israel off the map. Did the decades of conflict not provide enough evidence?

I have not seen any evidence of "many" American Jews supporting Palestine. They're either pro-Israel or silent.

"All Jews don't think alike" and "many Jews are sympathetic to Palestine" are two separate things. No one ever claimed all Jews think alike.

One problem there is that the students statement didn't support Hamas.
It holds Israel responsible for the ensuing violence that occurs (or will occur) post Hamas attack.
That is not the same thing.

Additionally, what I think we are seeing now, is that any Palestinian point of view, is automatically considered Pro Hamas, but this is just reductivism.

No. I'm not for cancelling people for their opinions. That's Fascism. Hopefully, they will grow up eventually.
