Arizona State University canceled an on-campus event where Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., was going to speak Friday.
The event was organized by the Arizona Palestine Network, which is not an on-campus organization at ASU. Tlaib was going to give a speech at the "Palestine is an American issue" event.
An ASU spokesperson told Fox News Digital the event didn't follow university policies and procedures.
"Organizers of events using ASU facilities must be properly registered with ASU and must meet all university requirements for crowd management, parking, security, and insurance. In addition, the events must be produced in a way which minimizes disruption to academic and other activities on campus. The event featuring Congresswoman Tlaib was planned and produced by groups not affiliated with ASU and was organized outside of ASU policies and procedures. Accordingly, that event will not take place today on the ASU Tempe campus," the spokesperson said.
The Arizona Palestine Network responded to the cancelation on Facebook, calling it "completely unacceptable."
"Rashida Tlaib must be heard on campus as the only Palestinian member of Congress who plans to speak on an American issue at this event. ASU cannot claim to hold free speech as a principle while denying Palestinians their voices on campus. Cancelling this event puts the university in direct contradiction with its charter as a university 'measured not by whom it excludes, but by whom it includes and how they succeed,'" the group wrote.
Tlaib's appearance in Arizona would have come just over a week after the House of Representatives voted to censure her over anti-Israel comments she made.
The text of the resolution accused her of "promoting false narratives regarding the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel and for calling for the destruction of the state of Israel."

I’m surprised that ASU would actually cancel an event such as that. Could there be hope for the Scum Dribbles? Naah.
WHAT? a LIBERAL speaker getting cancelled? SAY IT AIN’T SO! about darn time.
If one wishes to adopt Palestine as an identification, they are niggahs from niggahtown.
There shouldn’t be any palestinians in Arizona or America in general. Frankly there shouldn’t be any muslims at all here.

Buy me a vowel vanna
There is no “Palestinian” member of Congress. Either Tlaib is a naturalized American citizen swearing allegiance to the Flag symbolizing unity and loyalty to this nation, or not. If she claims loyalty to this PLO stateless anti-American Muslim cult, she meeds to stand down as an oath-breaker and liar to the duties assumed in her election.
Have pigs grown wings?
“The word PALESTINE was given by the Romans to the Jews...”
I believe they were of the Philistine tribe. I may be mistaken.
Send this evil POS back to Krapistan! She had her chance to become a civilized human being and indeed she was shown great favor and privilege in America — and yet she remains a Satanic monster.
We don’t need or want this kind of trash here!
This is American, not Palestine. It's under no obligation to allow enemy combatants a voice.
Jonathan Cahn says that.

Thanx for the info, will do.
Very informative post, mewzilla. Thanks for the link.
“There shouldn’t be any Palestinians in Arizona or America in general.”
More importantly, there should NEVER be another person in Congress who displays any flag other than the American flag. It doesn’t matter what country their family is from, they are now Americans. This includes, Mexicans, Russians, Cubans, Israelis, Chinese, etc.
