Israel-Hamas War Sparks Backlash in US

Oct 20, 2023 | The Israel-Hamas War has set off clashes on college campuses with major companies condemning the Hamas attacks and some retracting job offers to students who criticize Israel’s military action. Jeffrey Sonnenfeld joins to discuss why companies have been stepping up and speaking out.


I think this is dark behaviour! So what this professor is saying is this: there is only ONE side to this story. What Hamas did was brutal and inexcusable, about that there is no doubt, but if the world wants this atrocity and massacre never to be repeated, then we have to look at the root-causes of the massacre. What that disgusting Hamas organisation did was a symptom of long-term injustices and the sequestration of land which Palestinians believe belonged to them. Even if this is not believed to be true by Israelis and others, the Palestinians (and Arabs) do believe it to be true; therefore, this subject matter deserves to be discussed and analysed IN FULL, and WITH IMPUNITY. If we don't discuss and analyse this heinous crime, this ongoing conflict between Israelis and Palestinians will NEVER be resolved. Further, that law students should have their careers destroyed for having opinions diametrically opposed to CEOs and Ivy League professors is preposterous. Moreover, to go down this route in a so-called democracy augurs badly for the future of freedom in the USA. – © Mark Alexander
