Stanford Student Threatens to ‘Physically Fight’ Campus Zionists
“if someone comes at me with their ‘israel is a democracy’ bullshit”
The administration at Stanford may want to keep an eye on this student.
The Weekly Standard reports:
Stanford Student Threatens to ‘Physically Fight Zionists’ on Campus
Hamzeh Daoud, a rising junior at Stanford, took to Facebook on Friday afternoon to declare that he’ll “physically fight zionists on campus next year.” Angered by the Israeli government’s passage of its “basic law,” Daoud said that he’ll physically fight zionists on campus “if someone comes at me with their ‘israel is a democracy’ bullshit. : ) and after i abolish your ass i’ll go ahead and work every day for the rest of my life to abolish your petty ass ethnosupremacist settler-colonial state.”
According to other Stanford undergraduates, Daoud is an active member in Stanford Students for Justice in Palestine. One student told me that Daoud “has been one of the most aggressive and prolific anti-Israel figures at Stanford. . . . Now, he’s calling for violence against pro-Israel students. He will be an RA in a dormitory next year, and this is unacceptable, as he could quite literally threaten the safety of the students in the dormitory.”
The national arm of SJP—the group with which Hamzeh Daoud is affiliated—is linked in congressional testimony to some unsavory groups both at home and abroad.
A recent Stanford graduate, who was active in the Israel debate while there, commented to me, “Was this kid ever going to beat anyone up? I doubt it. . . . But it just shows how the rhetoric of the campus left has escalated and escalated until they’re literally threatening physical violence against oh, 90 percent of the Jews at the university, just to signal their commitment.”

@Daoud … maybe you’re some ninja bad ass or whatever … and I hope there’s a line of pro Israeli students waiting to get to you … but I doubt you have the fortitude to prevail. To make such a threat proves your Stanford education is wasted on you.
Stanford should be offering Krav Maga classes to Jewish students!
Physically? Is xe sure? This frustrated soy-besotted incel ought to limit xis threats to the incorporeal realm, lest xe not live to fight the fight back in the homeland.
“Abolish your ass?” Really, could Daoud be a more run-of-the mill sample of the trash that admissions officers in your shinier undergrad programs preferentially admit?
Regretably, this is a matter that Jewish and Israeli students at Stanford can’t rely on the University administration for protection. The campus Hillel, as a representative of Stanford’s Jewish students, should submit a complaint to Stanford’s police chief and to the local prosecuting attorney. Also, Hillel should consider obtaining a No Contact Order against Mr. Daoud, and perhaps obtaining a civil injunction against him.
