"GWU Faculty's Controversial Defense: Justifying Hamas' 'Right of Resistance' while Ignoring Atrocities"

Faculty members at George Washington University's medical school hosted a panel discussion titled "Understanding the Conflict in Israel and Palestine," where they defended Hamas terrorists' "right of resistance" against Israel. The panelists referred to Israel's military operation in the Gaza Strip as "ethnic cleansing" and "genocide" while ignoring the atrocities committed by Hamas. Jewish students expressed their concerns about the spread of antisemitism on campus, and some criticized the university's lack of action to address the issue. The university spokesperson stated that faculty and students have the right to express their own views, but they do not speak on behalf of the university.
