We had Cornel West and Alan Dershowitz debating this issue, Cornel West mostly agreeing with\u2064 the Harvard\u2064 groups, all 31 of them, \u2063on the issue of blaming \u200dIsrael and Israel only, and \u2063said\u200c things needed to be more &#8216;nuanced.&#8217; And I\u2019m like, we\u2019re talking about supporting terrorists. How is it\u2063 that a \u200dprestigious university like Harvard could have students this, frankly, dumb and ignorant? Makes me want to send my kids to a state \u2063school any day over that \u2064institution.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hawley pointed out the hypocrisy of Harvard, mentioning how\u200c they were\u200b quick to fly the\u200c flag of Ukraine over their\u200b campus\u200d but are now silent when Israel is under\u200b attack by terrorists \u2062who are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/hawley-doj-should-investigate-whos-funding-college-anti-israel-protests\/\" title=\"Hawley urges DOJ to probe funding of college anti-Israel protests.\">murdering innocent\u2062 children<\/a>. He emphasized, &#8220;Let\u2019s be honest: They would kill every Jew in the\u2062 world if they could.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;That\u2019s what the terrorists want and to be silent in the face of \u2063that or to celebrate it \u200bas\u2063 these crazy student groups\u2063 are doing? What I want to know is who\u2019s funding these \u2064student groups,&#8221; Hawley declared. &#8220;I\u200d hope the DOJ is investigating where \u2063the money is coming from.\u2064 Are there terror groups who are part of these networks who\u200b are infiltrating our campuses? This is\u2063 crazy\u2062 stuff that we\u2019re seeing \u200con\u200d these campuses, and for these administrators to have their hand out and take\u200b federal money, \u200btaxpayer money, and (on) the same dime be silent or\u200c silently condone \u2062this kind of terrorism, it is just grotesque.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Recently, dozens\u2062 of groups of Harvard University students released \u200ca joint statement blaming Israel for the\u2063 violence and atrocities committed by Hamas. Despite\u200b Hamas&#8217; war crimes and brutal acts against civilians, \u200bthe students claimed it was entirely Israel&#8217;s fault.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;We,\u2064 the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/harvard-dean-33-student-groups-blame-israel-for-war\/\" title=\"Harvard Dean and 33 Student Groups Accuse Israel of Causing War\">undersigned student organizations<\/a>,\u200b hold the Israeli \u200dregime\u2063 entirely responsible \u200dfor all unfolding violence,&#8221; wrote the Harvard Palestine Solidarity Groups on \u200bthe Situation in Palestine. &#8220;Today\u2019s events did not occur in a vacuum. \u2026 The apartheid regime is the only one to\u2064 blame.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Anti-Israel \u2063and\u200c pro-Hamas demonstrations have \u200cbeen taking place on college campuses across \u200dthe country, with various chapters of Students for\u2064 Justice in Palestine applauding the terrorist attacks.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/deeply-sick-over-30-harvard-university-groups-blame-israel-after-hamas-commits-atrocities\">\u2018Deeply Sick\u2019: Over 30 Harvard University Groups \u200cBlame Israel\u200b After Hamas Commits Atrocities<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> In what ways can universities proactively combat the promotion of extremist ideologies on their campuses and ensure an inclusive and respectful environment that fosters peace and understanding<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Ack.

Hawley on Lt. Gen. Honor\u00e9: This person has no business leading any security review related to Capitol breach\">senator raised concerns<\/a> about the influence of\u2063 academic institutions on young\u200c minds and how they can shape the students&#8217;\u2064 perspectives. He questioned the intellectual \u200crigor and critical thinking\u200d skills of students who support Hamas terrorism,\u2064 stating that it is a clear indicator of their lack \u2063of knowledge about the conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Hawley further criticized the reluctance of universities to address these issues and take a firm \u200cstance against promoting terrorism. He called for accountability from\u200c these institutions, urging them to proactively combat the spread of extremist \u2063ideologies on their campuses.<\/p>\n<p>The senator also \u2062highlighted the underlying \u2064anti-Semitic sentiment that often accompanies support for Hamas. He\u2063 emphasized the need for universities to foster an inclusive and respectful environment,\u200b free from hatred and discrimination.<\/p>\n<p>Hawley&#8217;s remarks\u2063 come at a time when tensions between Israel and Hamas have escalated, with violent clashes and rocket attacks threatening the\u200c stability of the region. The ongoing conflict has sparked demonstrations around the world, including on college campuses, where\u200d students are voicing their opinions on the matter.<\/p>\n<p>While freedom of speech and\u200d expression are fundamental rights, it is crucial to draw the line when it \u200bcomes \u2064to promoting terrorist activities. Supporting Hamas, an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/shock-video-idf-warns-gazan-man-to-evacuate-children-before-bombing-he-responds-if-the-children-need-to-die-then-theyll-die\/\" title=\"Shock Video: IDF Warns Gazan Man To Evacuate Children Before Bombing.

Universities should provide a platform for open dialogue and debate, encouraging students to explore different perspectives\u2063 while emphasizing the\u2064 importance of facts, evidence, and critical analysis.<\/p>\n<p>It is not enough for universities to remain silent or dismiss these demonstrations as harmless expressions of opinion. The promotion of terrorism, whether intentional or not, should not be \u200ctolerated within academic environments.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Hawley&#8217;s critique of academic institutions serves as a reminder that educating the next generation is not \u200bonly about imparting knowledge and skills but also about nurturing responsible, ethical citizens. Universities have a duty to ensure that their students\u2064 are exposed \u2063to \u200bdiverse viewpoints without compromising on the principles \u2063of peace, tolerance, and respect.<\/p>\n<p>While \u2064educational institutions strive\u200c to promote free thinking and independent \u200bthought, it is essential\u200b to provide guidance and support to students, helping them differentiate between legitimate\u200b criticism and support for terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Senator Josh Hawley&#8217;s condemnation of colleges and universities supporting Hamas terrorism highlights the need for academic institutions to prioritize the safety, security, and moral \u2064development of their students. It is crucial for \u200duniversities \u200cto \u2063actively address and combat extremist ideologies, ensuring an inclusive and respectful environment conducive to learning \u200dand\u200d growth. By doing so, we can foster a \u200cfuture generation \u2064that rejects terrorism and advocates for peace, justice, and \u2064understanding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Missouri GOP Sen.
