Ivy League Presidents Say Calling for Genocide of Jews is Permissible Within Context

The presidents of three prominent universities dropped an antisemetic bombshell Tuesday on Capitol Hill.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) asked the presidents of Harvard, MIT and the University of Pennsylvania whether calls for the genocide of jews would violate their codes of conduct. The answer stunned the nation.

“It is a context-dependent decision,” Penn President Liz Magill replied.

Stefanik was dumbfounded.

“Calling for the genocide of Jews is dependent on the context? That is not bullying or harassment? This is the easiest question to answer ‘yes,’ Ms. Magill,” the congresswoman said.

Harvard President Claudine Gay said, “When speech crosses into conduct, we take action.” MIT President Sally Kornbluth said that such language would only be “investigated as harassment if pervasive and severe.”

Earlier in the day House Republicans hosted a number of Jewish students who gave first-hand accounts of how they have been harassed and bullied on campus by pro-Hamas terrorist sympathizers.

“Multiple times a week on my way to class, I walk by mobs of people chanting ‘from the river to the sea’… I talk to my Jewish friends on campus every day,” Harvard student Jonathan Frieden said. “They tell me how afraid they are to go to class.”

“President Gay’s willingness to call chants of ‘Intifada’ and other hateful antisemitic speech ‘abhorrent’ is reassuring, but the next step is action. When students are saying ‘from the river to the sea Palestine will be Arab’ and clearly calling for violence against Jewish communities – and even interrupting classes to do so – we need to hear Harvard clearly state how it will discipline those who are voicing these hateful views,” another student, Charlie Covit, an activist for the Israel on Campus Coalition, said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

Billionaire Bill Ackman, a Harvard alum, is calling on all three university presidents to resign.

“They must all resign in disgrace. If a CEO of one of our companies gave a similar answer, he or she would be toast within the hour,” Ackman said on X. “The answers they gave reflect the profound moral bankruptcy of Presidents Gay, Magill and Kornbluth.”

“Throughout the hearing, the three behaved like hostile witnesses,” Ackman added,“exhibiting a profound disdain for the Congress with their smiles and smirks, and their outright refusal to answer basic questions with a yes or no answer.”

If you are sending your child or giving money to Harvard or MIT or U Penn, you are helping to fund organizations that defend the harassment and genocide of Jews. That’s what America learned on Capitol Hill yesterday. It’s a slippery slope to 1930’s Germany, folks.

Absolutely correct. And it’s astonishing. How did this happen?

If Trump chose Elise Stefanik as his running mate I would not be unhappy.

When the savages get into power the first heads that will be sliced off will be those of university heads. I doubt these college presidents care to think about that as they forgive the savages for their savagery.

How many have been kicked out or suspended for speech which did not cross to action? Every single one should sue the school.

Two of those three “Ivy League Presidents” look like Randi Weingarten siblings. They have no gravitas. Who is dumb enough to send their children to those over priced institutions?

American Jews need to wake up, read the signs, and return to Israel. Sadly, us Christians have no safe haven. Hell is coming.

Jews have been expelled front the Left “Friend Coalition”.

What is happening now on the elite campuses will soon be happening everywhere in America, just like it did for LGBT and BLM.

Will they allow discussion of deporting illegal and foreign students? Of treating Palestinians as enemy combatants for association and support of Palestinian Islamic HAMAS?

would it still be permissible IF instead of using the term “jews”, the term “persons of color” was used? we all know the answer to that. so who are the REAL racists? pretty obvious...except to the Jews who still will vote for democrats. gotta wonder why some people hate themselves enough to vote for a party of politicians who support their imminent demise.

So it’s okay for college “presidents” to scream DEATH TO THE JEWS! as long as they do it “in context”?

As a Harvard and MIT alum, I am deeply ashamed of both presidents’ replies and lack of appropriate action!

Harvard alum Elise Stefanik agrees with me that Ms. Gay should resign! However, I believe that she should resign not just because of lack of action against campus antisemitism, but because she is incompetent!

The blocking of the main entrance of MIT by Hamas supporters was an act of terrorism! So perhaps Ms. Kornbluth should resign, too!

Completely unaddressed is Harvard’s longstanding anti-Christian bias!

Finally, Elise Stefanik did a good job. Is she running for Vice President?

Libtards justifying the extermination of Jews like good little nazis

The Nazis took the idea from the muslims, since killing Jews is a tenet of their belief system.

Hitler cited the Armenian Genocide as justification.

Hitler cited the Armenian Genocide as justification.

He was also a student of the koran and its sunnahs and hadiths, regardless of some putative statements. Not to mention, a lot of Mein Kampf is plagiarized from the koran and made to fit his idea of Germany, including the Arab idea of being the master race.

Hitler did not ally himself or his movement with Armenia, but with the ME muslim leadership as his natural ally.
