The White House issued a strong rebuke of the antisemitic threats that have been shouted at pro-Palestinian protests at college campuses across the country, most notably Columbia University.
Large groups have gathered at Columbia, calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. Some protesters have gone further by calling for the death of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and reportedly targeting Jewish students with threats. The White House condemned the “blatantly Antisemitic” rhetoric in a statement issued on Sunday.
