Fatima Mohammed’s speech at the City University of New York School of Law’s commencement ceremony on May 12 began with an acknowledgment of the challenges students faced during Covid and a shout-out to her mom. Her remarks then turned political, including a harsh critique of Israel — words that CUNY’s Board of Trustees called “hate speech” in a recently issued statement.

In her 12-minute speech, Mohammed stated that “Israel continues to indiscriminately rain bullets and bombs on worshipers, murdering the old, the young” and said that the state encourages “lynch mobs.” She praised CUNY’s law school as “one of the few, if not the only, law school ... defending the right of its students to speak out against Israeli settler colonialism.”

Oops, can't criticize Israel! Too much money floating around.

Is there supposed to be a discussion about this or is this simply a public service announcement?
 
Let’s see how the liberals respond if anyone says anything bad about Palestine

Israel, Tel Aviv:

Who runs a city better, the Israelis or the Palestinians?

So, an antisemitic bigot seeped in radical Leftist politics gives a speech at a thoroughly racist, radical Leftist university at their graduation ceremony. What's new about that?
