Recall that Harvard rescinded its acceptance of Kyle Kashuv, a school shooting survivor because some vindictive person dug up and released years-old group chat messages in which he said some naughty words. But I'm supposed to care that Hamas apologists aren't getting hired?
RedState "Following the deadly invasion by Hamas terrorists that took the lives of at least 1,200 people in Israel, you'd think there would be no question who was at fault. You'd think that, but you'd be wrong.
"As I wrote previously, all the geopolitical arguments in the world, right or wrong, do not excuse mass murder, including the massacring of children. When Hamas crossed the border and started indiscriminately killing people and taking hostages, there was no question that the gloves would have to come off. Complaints about settlements and the Al-Aqsa mosque became academic at that point.
"Still, in the immediate aftermath of the attacks, some people actually came out in open support of Hamas' atrocities, justifying them and blaming Israel for the murder of its own people. Joint letters were put out by universities and protests were held with chants glorifying Hamas "martyrs."
"Naturally, some companies decided that was a bridge too far and rescinded job offers to those who participated, and now the crying has begun.
Ryna Workman had a job offer lined up when the New York University law student wrote a message to the university’s Student Bar Association saying Israel was solely to blame for the war with Hamas that has killed at least 1,300 people in Israel and more than 1,350 people in Gaza.
“Israel bears full responsibility for this tremendous loss of life,” Workman wrote. “This regime of state-sanctioned violence created the conditions that made resistance necessary. I will not condemn Palestinian resistance.”
But the post came with a consequence: Workman no longer has a job after law school. . . .
