Pro-Hamas protests show how higher education has finally crossed the line.

With the horrific massacre, rapes and infant murders and kidnappings Hamas proudly perpetrated in Israel, much of the American academic community, especially at elite universities, sided with . . . Hamas.
It is not playing well:
Harvard has been the most talked-about example, because, well, it’s Harvard.
Harvard students have since deleted their statement, though it still lives on the Internet, of course.
They deleted it because many major firms announced they won’t hire anyone on the list. Some have even asked for membership lists of the student organizations involved so they can make sure not to hire any students who belong.
A group called Accuracy in Media has been sending billboard trucks around Harvard Square naming the students involved, which some have called “doxing,” though publicly naming the public authors of a public statement hardly seems to rise to that level.
Winston & Strawn, a top law firm where Democratic Vice President Walter Mondale was once a partner, rescinded a job offer for an NYU law student who issued a pro-Hamas proclamation.
This was followed by Harvard’s Kennedy School losing billionaire philanthropist Idan Ofer and his wife Batia from its board. ..
our faith in the University’s leadership has been broken and we cannot in good faith continue to support Harvard and its committees,” said the couple, worth $20 billion.
Bill Ackman, a hedge-fund founder, slammed Harvard too and was joined by a number of his fellow CEOs.
The message: Harvard is no longer morally worthy of our money, and we don’t want to hire its students.
The major law firms, hedge funds and Wall Street houses have had enough of woke students.
Ackman also called out another Ivy League institution, the University of Pennsylvania.

The Palestinian education system teaches hate.
It needs reform.
Actually, it’s Israel from the river to the sea. Sorry.
Ignorance is everywhere.
This author’s piece is from 2018 and preaches the myth of ‘palestine’ while addressing the headline phrase

I wonder what the next email by CBC will say about the phrase
