Harvard pro-Palestinian groups held a 'die-in' on Wednesday, just over a week after the deadly terrorist attack by Hamas that killed more than 1,400 people in Israel.

The protests come just 12 days after the attack and a letter backed by 33 Harvard student groups that blamed Israel for the attack by Hamas terrorists sparked national outrage.

The Harvard Palestine Solidarity Committee and Harvard Graduate Students for Palestine organized Wednesday's march from Harvard's main campus in Cambridge to its business school in Boston.

According to the invitation, the march was organized in part due to an 'Israeli airstrike' on a hospital in Gaza, despite US intel clarifying that Israel was reportedly not behind the explosion.

The event flyer read, 'Protest and Die-In. Over 800 Killed by Israeli airstrike on hospital in Gaza. Demand an end to ongoing genocide.'

Protestors filled the streets alongside the Charles River, with many waving Palestinian flags, chanting slogans like 'No justice, No peace' and holding signs saying, 'Stop the genocide in Gaza.'

The crowd descended upon the Business School law, where they laid down in the grass as a group, pretending to be dead, as a form of 'resistance.'

The video shared by the Palestine Solidarity Committee's Instagram following the rally, shows many students dressed in Arab Shemagh Kafiya garb.

Some pro-Israel students counter-protested nearby, many offended by the lack of sympathy shown by their fellow students following the deadly terrorist attack, with many who have been personally impacted.

One student from Israel, standing alone, held an Israeli flag proudly in the face of those condemning the country while they called him a 'murderer.'

Raphael Maarek said his mother and sister are currently living in a bomb shelter in Tel Aviv.

'These demonstrations are not about peace. They're not about empathy. They're not about solutions,'...

I’m surprised they all didn’t go get themselves castrated to show support for the Hammies. They usually do something wacky to their testicles to show support for a leftist or terrorist cause.

"The crowd descended upon the Business School law, where they laid down in the grass as a group, pretending to be dead, as a form of 'resistance.'"

What a lack of commitment. That's not a 'die-in'. That's a 'lie-in'. Do it right!

I wonder about those folks in Jewish garb at the peace protest that also have Palestinian flag flying are really Jewish or just dressed up like one.

Harvard is center of anti-American activity within higher education, and supporters of Terrorism.

NEVER BRAG YOU ATTENDED HARVARD, and don’t ask for a Job.

Human Resources throughout the USG and industry should take a hard look at those who are currently employed.

The anti-Americanism started in the 70s at Harvard.

One problem in Gaza is that deaths are in the thousands and not in the tens of thousands.

Videos from the Gaza street scene show a tremendous surplus of young men and boys who will continue the effort for ever

They should make the “die-in” real and all commit suicide.

Sounds as if the “Students Wildly Indignant about Nearly Everything”(S.W.I.N.E.) are still with us.

Those who remember the Li’l Abner comic strip from 1966 will understand this. The university regents were so afraid of the SWINE that they sold the university to the Mafia, and here came the SWINE! I still get a thrill remembering the big spark fly when the SWINE assaulted the mob enforcer’s brass knuckles with their front teeth.
