Anti-Israel ‘Students for Justice in Palestine’ Groups Planning ‘Week of Rage’ on Anniversary of October 7th Attacks

  1. This is happening at multiple schools across the country.

The Boston Herald reports:

Anti-Israel student groups plan ‘Week of Rage’ for deadly Hamas terrorist attack anniversary: ‘Boggles the mind’As Jews around the world mourn those who were killed during the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attack, anti-Israel student groups are planning a “Week of Rage” across college campuses — sickening those in the Jewish community.The Oct. 7 to 11 protests pushed by Students for Justice in Palestine come as Jewish groups hold memorial events for last year’s massacre, and as about 100 hostages are still believed to be held by Hamas in Gaza.The “Week of Rage” is also during the holiest days of the Jewish year, culminating with Yom Kippur on Oct. 11-12.“Oct. 7 is obviously going to be a day of remembrance for those in the Jewish community and those who care about fighting terrorism,” Peggy Shukur, of the Anti-Defamation League’s East Division which includes New England, told the Herald.“But groups on campuses are engaging in anti-Israel events throughout the entire anniversary week, glorifying Hamas and glorifying the attacks,” Shukur added. “It boggles the mind that on a day that should be sacred to remember the atrocities, there are people glorifying it.”College students have rallied and protested on campuses for the last year over the Israel-Hamas war. Some pro-Palestine protests have become disruptive, and police have been called in to take down encampments.Now, the National Students for Justice in Palestine are planning the Oct. 7 to 11 protests to “mark a year of genocide in Gaza.”“For over 11 months now, the Zionist entity, with the backing of the U.S. and our universities, has committed a horrific assault on the nearly 2 million Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip,” the group posted. “Since the start of this genocide, the people of Gaza have continued to stand steadfast, resilient, and unwavering in the face of these crimes. It is for them that we rise.”
