Meet the Harvard Students Supporting Hamas’ Invasion of Israel
Townhall.com ^ | 10 October A.D. 2023 | John Hasson

Posted on 10/10/2023 1:15:39 PM PDT by lightman

In the wake of Hamas’ brutal surprise attack against Israel, 34 Harvard student organizations recently signed a joint statement blaming Israel for the attack and expressing support for Palestine.

“We, the undersigned student organizations, hold the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence,” the letter read.

“The apartheid regime is the only one to blame. Israeli violence has structured every aspect of Palestinian existence for 75 years.”

To date, the Hamas invasion has killed over 900 Israeli citizens, and at least 11 American citizens. Reports of Hamas raping Israeli women, and videos of militants holding Israeli children in cages, have flooded social media. In one violent spectacle, Hamas militants paraded the naked, dead body of a German woman through the streets of Gaza in the back of a vehicle.

In some cases, Hamas terrorists even uploaded images or videos of their victims on the victims’ own social media accounts.

Despite such horrific brutality, the Harvard student groups offered Hamas their public support and blamed Israel for the murder and rape of its own citizens.

Townhall has identified the student leaders of several of those groups. Their names are listed below.

Graduate Student Leaders Whose Groups Support the Hamas Invasion

Harvard Muslim Law School Association

Hussain Awan ’25 (Co-President)

Hussain Awan is a second-year student at Harvard Law School. This past July, Awan worked as a law clerk at the Supreme Court of Pakistan, under Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah.

Before that, Awan worked in Tunisia as a legal intern for the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance (IDEA). IDEA is an “intergovernmental organization (IGO) with a mandate to support sustainable democracy worldwide.” IDEA also received $320,000 from George Soros’ Open Society Foundation between 2016 and 2017.

Reema Doleh ’25 (Co-President)

Reema Doleh is a second-year student at Harvard Law School. This past summer, Doleh worked as a legal intern for Legal Services NYC. Before that, she worked as a paralegal in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office from January 2022 to July 2022.

Ariq Hatibie ’24 (Executive Board Member)

Ariq Hatibie is a third-year student at Harvard Law School. Hatibie is currently the Editor in Chief of the Harvard Human Rights Journal.

This past summer, Hatibie worked as a summer associate at White & Case LLP. The previous summer, Hatibie worked as a legal intern for TRIAL International, a Soros-funded legal group which claims to fight against “impunity for international crimes and supporting victims in their quest for justice.”

Additionally, Hatibie works as a research assistant for Harvard Law Professor Salma Waheedi. In 2022, Waheedi signed a letter with Harvard faculty expressing “solidarity with the Palestinian people in their struggle for freedom and self-determination.”

In the letter, Waheedi and her colleagues claim “Unwavering US financial, military, and political support has fueled an apartheid system that institutionalizes the domination and repression of Palestinians.”

Waheedi currently teaches a course on “Law, Human Rights, and Social Justice in Israel-Palestine.”

Saeed Ahmad ’24 (Executive Board Member)

Saeed Ahmad is third-year student at Harvard Law School. He currently works as a Research Assistant to Professor Intisar Rabb, in Harvard’s Program in Islamic Law.

Saeed is also a member of the Harvard South Asian Law Students Association, another student group that signed the statement supporting Hamas.

Some folks need to live a few years under the Taliban. They might not think so highly of Islam afterwards.

These Nazis can’t stand Jews who will fight them. They much prefer the Jews who quietly line up and step onto the cattle cars.

Yep. Facebook or Meta or whatever they are now will see this as a plus.

San Francisco has quite a few pro-Hamas rodents.

Back when I was a Harvard PhD candidate and lived in a Graduate dorm, I ate meals with Harvard Law School students in Harkness Commons. There were no radical muslims, terrorists, or Nazis among them. Really!

But a high school chum who wound up at Harvard Law, (legacy - dad was a full prof at the Med School), complained to me that all they were teaching him was how to be a Harvard Law professor.

I fled Cambridge in 1977 during a divorce, and have never even considered returning. Sister-in-law (from a later marriage) is still there, but we can't hold anything like a political conversation. Her levels of misinformation are breathtaking. They won't listen to anything but NPR, read anything but the NYT and the Globe, and their TVs are welded to WGBH.

I gave up listening to NPR as the result of 9/11—it made me much too angry. I never was a regular reader of the NYT. And I gave up on the Globe when it became trashy (i.e., no useful information) and ultra-leftist after several changes in corporate ownership.

I still view WGBH program video websites, but VERY selectively (drama, science, and history—NO politics)!!!! And I listen to their classical music station. Since they are against election integrity, I no longer give to them, despite my love of classical music.

I stopped contributing to “public” radio when they started ridiculing J. P. Sousa and began non-stop whining about the patriarchy.

I felt like I was being forced to listen to my ex-wife’s rants.

Women been doxed, cancelled and lost their jobs for things like not allowing a strange POC into their apartment buildings, but little or nothing happens to people openly supporting the slaughter of 900 civilians, the rape of women, and the beheading of infants because they were Jews. These people are the TRUE Deplorables.
