Experts see ‘anti-Western’ movement as antisemitism, as other bigotries surface in campus protestsAmid the Israel-Gaza conflict arising after Hamas murdered more than 1,200 citizens and raped at least several dozen women on October 7 of last year, college campuses have been infested with sometimes violent pro-Palestinian demonstrations and encampments, many of which been criticized as antisemitic or anti-Israel.Such protests have spread across the country and prompted considerable scrutiny toward higher education, its mismanagement and the allegedly pervasive antisemitism within its institutions…Experts see the ideologies are part of a broader movement“So, there is no doubt that the toxicity and the racialization of education contributed to a movement that now explicitly seeks to take down our country,” Cornell University Law Professor and Legal Insurrection founder William Jacobson told Just the News. “At its core, what we’re seeing happen on campus is an anti-western, anti-capitalist movement that uses hatred of Israel as an organization mechanism.”“The animating spirit of these protests and the animating spirit of everything that is happening is anti-American and anti-western animus,” said Heritage Foundation Senior Fellow Mike Gonzalez, author of “NextGen Marxism: What It Is and How to Combat It.”“That includes capitalism, representative democracy, the renaissance, the reformation… it includes all of that. All of that is presented by them as ‘white supremacy,’” he went on. “When that side talks about white supremacy they don’t actually mean white supremacy.”
