Scary Stuff Happening at MIT: Staff Harassed, Jewish Students 'Physically Prevented' From Going to Class
2023-11-12
[RedState] At MIT (the Massachusetts Institue of Technology), the anti-Israel crowd took it to a whole new level, as this letter from the students revealed. Professor Retsef Levi posted what the letter said and it's some pretty scary stuff, like a throwback to the 1930s.

Today, Jewish and Israeli MIT students were physically prevented from attending class by a hostile group of pro-Hamas and anti-Israel MIT students that call themselves the CAA. This is after students from the CAA harassed MIT staff members in their offices for being Jewish and interrupted classes in the past few weeks. All of this has occurred with no clear response from the administration. With each passing day, MIT admin’s silence makes Jewish and Israeli students feel unsafe at MIT. Many Jewish students fear leaving their dorm rooms and have stated that they feel MIT is not safe for Jews. This message is compounded by the public and private warnings of Hillel and many faculty that Jewish students should not enter MIT’s main lobby today, November 9th, 2023.

Not only did they prevent Jewish students from attending class, but they also harassed professors, The reaction of the school? Not to go after the students doing this, but to tell the Jewish student to not enter the front lobby. On Nov. 9. The anniversary of Kristallnacht, the Night of the Broken Glass, Nov. 9, 1938, when Nazis rampaged and attacked Jewish stores, homes, and people.

#4  Sally Kornbluth is MIT's 18th president. She is a cell biologist whose eight-year tenure as Duke University’s provost has earned her a reputation as a brilliant administrator, a creative problem-solver, and a leading advocate of academic excellence blah blah blay.

#2  Interestingly, the same people who claim that Israel should not harm Gazan "Civilians" while fighting Hamas, feel perfectly confortable in attacking all Jews in their "fight" for Palestine.

#1  Wondering out loud... if having major donors like:
The Clinton's, Gates, Qatar, CCP, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, various authoritarian countries, and various Far Left Organizations had anything to do with it?
