George Washington University Suspends Students for Justice in Palestine

George Washington University in Washington DC has suspended the campus chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine after that group projected anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian phrases onto the library last month subsequent to the October 7 invasion of Israel by Hamas.

While I applaud the suspension, which is for three months, it is not sufficient. This organization should be banned from every campus in America. It is anti-Semitic, uses brown-shirt tactics, and is now openly supporting a terrorist organization (Hamas) after that group carried out the worst anti-Jewish attack since the Holocaust. 

Here is how the GWU campus paper, The Hatchet, reported the suspension. From reading the article, my inference is that it is pro-SJP in nature (hardly a surprise).

It's a small victory, but hopefully, a harbinger of things to come from other universities.
