Students at Harvard University have accused Israel of “systematic oppression and ethnic cleansing,” and are demanding the university condemn Israel’s so-called “excessive use of force,” and divest from companies that do business with Israel.
“The current escalation of violence against Palestinians in Palestine and in Israel follows years of systematic oppression and ethnic cleansing committed by the State of Israel,” the Harvard students and student organizations proclaim in their petition, which has garnered hundreds of student signatures.
The students’ petition is in reaction to Israel unleashing airstrikes against Palestinian terrorists after the terrorists launched dozens of rockets at Israel from Gaza.
The petition goes on to call on the university to divest from all companies that are involved in the so-called “illegal Israeli settlement enterprise,” pushing pro-BDS sentiments.
“We call on our university to end its complicity with Israeli apartheid policies and occupation by removing its investments in companies that are involved in the illegal Israeli settlement enterprise until equal rights are guaranteed for all citizens in Israel and Palestine,” the petition reads.
The BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] movement seeks to systematically destroy the world’s only Jewish state through financial means, by boycotting companies that do business with Israel.
The petition also urges students to call on the U.S. State Department and Department of Defense to “Demand the end of Israel’s forced displacement of Palestinians from East Jerusalem.”
“Educate yourself and your community about human rights abuses in Palestine,” the petition states.
The petition was created by the Palestine Caucus at Harvard Kennedy School, the Harvard College Palestine Solidarity Committee, the Harvard Palestine Health Initiative at Harvard Medical School, the Harvard Divinity School Students for Palestinian Rights, and the Middle East and North Africa Student Organization at the Harvard Graduate School of Design.

BWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Students are in Universities to learn, not to dictate!
Democrats have managed to turn the world upside-down, inside-out. And the dummy followers can’t tell the difference.
Let me get this straight.
Terrorists aim rockets at the Israeli population, and the Israelis defend themselves? But, the Israelis are not supposed to defend themselves.
If someone attacked me with a machete, I’m supposed to just wait until I’m all cut up into pieces? I can’t defend myself? If I do, I’m the villain?
Harvard has 6,700 students. Just a small percentage are involved.
Screw HAHvahd
Harvard hates Jews
where is their outrage against the THEFT by the
fake Native American which Harvard ADORES?????
they are useless snowflakes who cannnot give
accountability to Sen. Warren for her (and them)
keeping REAL Native Americans out of Harvard Law.
Maybe they need training on how to shoot the weapons out of the terrorists hands.
Translation: The murderous degenerates are recognizing that they are about to be fully smitten.
Perhaps we can observe the carnage in living color, in HD with Surround Sound. That would be great.
screw em
Put your money where your demanding mouths are and go over there to help your Palestinian brothers and sisters, ya little snowflakes. Go on. What are you waiting for?
Why do students feel compelled to have their university do their bidding? It’s not like Harvard is shooting missiles into Boston! Why would Harvard say anything about what’s going on 10,000 miles away?
Harvard students who signed that petition should proceed immediately in an orderly fashion straight to Hell.
Peach
Children who have no understanding of history or the world making demands as dictated to them by the lefturds...
Dear student: In a fight for your life, lack of excess force by you gets you dead. No magic respawns.
It’s not excessive. Of course, these kids are entitled to their opinions, such that they are.
Those dirty Boycott students were at work earlier at the University of Michigan which had a student government vote to condemn Israel for modern day apartheid and genocide. They learned that crapola from their pinhead professors. Along with “genocide is a myth.” Reprehensible and dangerous.
Don't tell them that. Let them go into the battle thinking they can respawn.
