Harvard Stands with Israel

No Excuse For Terror 

Murdering hundreds of children, women, and men in their homes, massacring hundreds of young adults at a party, taking hostages and torturing civilians is the cold-blooded murderous actions of terrorists alone and has no place in humanity. The celebrations in communities around the world in support of these mass murderers, including some members and organizations in the Harvard community, should frighten and disgust every moral person. Please add your voice in condemning the hate against and the mass murder of Jews.
