Columbia professor rips university's president over Israel-Hamas war response
Rush to blame Israel for hospital bombing: Letters to the Editor — Oct. 20, 2023An Israeli-American professor at Columbia University’s business school slammed his employer in a fiery speech on campus Wednesday night — ripping the university for not publicly denouncing pro-Palestinian student organizations he claimed are “pro-terror.”
He said he could not believe he witnessed hundreds of students — who he again claimed to be “pro-terror” — : “I hope every one of these people die,” apparently referring to the pro-Palestinian student protestors at last Thursday’s demonstration. “Unfortunately, some are using this moment to spread antisemitism, Islamophobia, bigotry against Palestinians and Israelis, and various other forms of hate,” Shafik wrote, according to the Spectator. “Especially at a time of pain and anger, we must avoid language that vilifies, threatens, or stereotypes entire groups of people.”
