UPenn president issues groveling video following Congressional antisemitism hearings
NY Post ^ | 12/7/23 | NY Post

University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill has issued a groveling apology for her refusal to condemn calls for the genocide of the Jewish people on campus in her remarks to Congress — as Harvard University President Pauline Gay backtracked on her testimony.

In a video posted on the Ivy League’s website Wednesday, Magill tried to explain her failure by saying she was not “focused” on the issue, and said that she wanted to “be clear” that calls for genocide were “evil, plain and simple.”

But she also seemingly blamed university policies and even the US Constitution for allowing the calls to be made on campus.

“There was a moment during yesterday’s Congressional hearing on antisemitism when I was asked if a call for the genocide of Jewish people on our campus would violate our policies,” Magill began the two-minute-long video.

“In that moment, I was focused on the university’s long-standing policies — aligned with the US Constitution — which say that speech alone is not punishable.

Universities are the super-sized money laundering operations for the Fedzilla and NGO-Mothra beasts. Command and control with free security in campus police, stash-house to hide the loot, and free operating revenues from their very own bank (DOE). Or should I have said “Capitol Police”.

UPenn received millions from Communist China in donations. A lot of these donations went to Joe Biden as supposed salary. Money laundering?

Old days: A disgraced official would be expected to resign.
Now: Fine-tune an apology. Then business as usual.

Why are all of these great universities headed by women?

They all need strong men to lead them out of their flirtation with evil, and to take strong action against perpetrators of evil!

Deport all non-citizen Palestinian activists on university campuses! Make universities safe for teaching, learning, and research, and end calls for murder and genocide!

It seemed to me that those women presidents displayed sneering, snarling Republican Derangement Syndrome yesterday. NO WAY were they going to have any R force them to admit how despicable their policies and politics are. Ha Ha that the blowback forces them to do so today.

Are the Jews fleeing the Demonrat Plantation? I’ll bet these fascist university presidents got an earful when they got back to their campus from Jewish alumni and big $ donors.

<< “I was focused on the university’s long-standing policies — aligned with the US Constitution — which say that speech alone is not punishable.” >>

Unless that speech is directed against any group on the woke victim pyramid (Muzzies, sexual deviants, non-whites, etc.). Then the punishment is expulsion. But against Jews / Christians / Whites? “Hey, freedom of speech, freedom of speech.”
