Widespread student support of Hamas attacks exposes ‘moral bankruptcy’ of US higher education. The protests demand a swift and unwavering response from university leaders.
As Hamas carried out unspeakable horror against Israeli civilians, out came a litany of student groups on campuses across the country proclaiming the terrorists as freedom fighters. Thirty-one Harvard student groups posted a now-infamous statement blaming Israel for the violence committed by Hamas. And that was only the beginning of the on-campus reaction. Pro-Palestinian students at the University of Wisconsin rallied, chanting, 'Glory to our martyrs.
If other university presidents want to live up to their titles, they should follow suit. The pipeline from 'elite' universities — if they can still be called that — to political leadership is a strong one. Unless something changes, our country runs the risk of being led by people who might be content with the abandonment and destruction of Israel. For decades, our tax dollars have financed a higher-ed system that simmers in a toxic stew of illiberalism and hateful anti-Semitism.
