Fetterman slams Harvard for hosting Palestinian professor who blamed Israel for Oct. 7 Hamas attacks

Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., is slamming Harvard for hosting a Palestinian professor who has blamed Israel for the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks.

The Democratic lawmaker said he was "truly appalled" that Harvard’s Kennedy School would platform Dr. Dalal Saeb Iriqat, a columnist and associate professor at Arab American University Palestine.

Dr. Iriqat is scheduled to speak at the Harvard Kennedy School’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs on March 7 for a seminar series called "Middle East Dialogues."

"I am truly appalled that the Kennedy School would platform an individual who celebrates and justifies Hamas’ October 7th killing of Israeli citizens—babies, children, the elderly, and the systemic rape, mutilation, and torture of young girls and women," Fetterman said.

Fetterman added that "this hate has absolutely no place in any sanctioned dialogue. Decency would demand it relegated to the sewer of social media fringe."

"As an alumni and a member of the United States Senate, 25 years later, it’s hard to recognize my former university," he said.

Did Fetterman run a con the Democrats? He ran to the very far left, but he’s operating as a proper Republican.

What is up with that?

We should just let it play out and see where it goes.

Maybe it was his wife that drove him to the left. But now that apparently they are getting divorced, he’s free to be who he is.

The GOP should be making the same kind of public statements about who Harvard aids and abets. Where are the republicans on this, or do they expect to be shouted down and hushed by the Pro-Pali side again? This has been happening on American college campuses, at least since the mid 1980’s.

Some folks think Fetterman is part of some kind of weird conspiracy to fool Pennsylvania voters. I think not. He’s an odd duck, to be sure. He’s also the real deal.

After all, who else showed up at a pro-Israel rally draped in the Israeli flag?

Ah, but the ultimate test will occur when he’s ordered to vote against Israel in the Senate.

Fetterman?

This is refreshing.

They gotta shut this guy up or is this a strategy to cut Harvard loose and targeting Harvard are his marching orders.

Did his tramp wife leave yet?

In yet another Harvard “affirmative action” fail, her Dean for Research Administration had to step down because of her bullying:

The Dean for Research Administration is supposed to help faculty to secure grants—NOT to fill an “affirmative action” administrative slot!
