   Jewish billionaire and philanthropist Henry Swieca has quit the board of Columbia University’s business school, citing the Ivy League school’s “moral cowardice” on anti-Jewish sentiment on campus.

   Swieca slammed Columbia for allowing “pro-Hamas students” to march on campus and said he must make “a clear and principled stand regarding recent events.”

     @Hyolobrika I hear you, but it's really hard not to do so right now because all (and I do mean ALL) protests for the Palestinians have turned into Jew-hating festivals calling for Jewish blood. NOT Israeli blood, Jewish blood. So, well, fuck Hamas and its supporters. In the meantime, Hamas is murdering Palestinians who object to being human shields. How do you counter that shit? @YoungBlood

     I wish people would stop conflating being pro-Palestinian with being pro-Hamas or anti-Jewish

     “The entire Columbia administration has failed to take a strong stance condemning Hamas, an organization whose very charter plainly states its goal to annihilate the state of Israel and Jews worldwide,” Swieca continued. “With blatantly anti-Jewish student groups and professors allowed to operate with complete impunity, it sends a clear and distressing message that Jews are not just unwelcome, but also unsafe on campus.”
