Letter: Campus antisemitism

Published: 04-30-2024 3:19 PM

Students are protesting against Israel and Jews on college campuses. Why weren’t these same students protesting the war in Syria? As of June 28, 2022 the United Nations Human Rights Office estimated 306,887 civilians had been killed in Syria between March 2011 and 2021.

As of May 2021 according to GCR2P, NGO, 580,000 people were killed, 13 million Syrians displaced, 6.7 million refugees forced to flee Syria. However, students choose to protest Israeli, Jewish interests. I call that blatant antisemitism.
