Netanyahu Decries 'Anti-Semitic Mobs' Overtaking American Campuses
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday condemned the anti-Israel protests that have swept U.S. college campuses, calling the demonstrators "anti-Semitic mobs" who must be confronted. "What's happening on America's college campuses is horrific. Anti-Semitic mobs have taken over leading universities. They call for the annihilation of Israel. They attack Jewish students. They attack Jewish faculty," Netanyahu said in a video statement released Wednesday. The Israeli leader referred to the ongoing wave of anti-Israel campus protests—most notably at Columbia University and New York University—as "reminiscent of what happened in German universities in the 1930s."
