Scarborough urges adults to confront Hamas presence on college campuses

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough called on the “adults” at major universities around the United States to step up and handle the rampant antisemitism taking place in encampments serving as hotbeds for “Hamas on college campuses.”

“It’s staggering,” Scarborough said on Monday’s edition of Morning Joe. “Not just to me, I know I’m a conservative. Not just to me, but to 90% of Americans. They want to know where the adults are at Columbia. They want to know where the adults are at Penn. They want to know where the adults are at Harvard.

“They want to know where the adults are in all of these college campuses, where they’re letting their students and outside agitators run across the campus, shut down debate, scream whenever anybody tries to talk reason to them.”

The student protesters and outside agitators are perpetuating genocide through chants and signs with seemingly zero consequences, Scarborough said.

“Hold up signs pointing to Jews saying, ‘Hamas’s next victims!’ Holding up signs talking about the final solution,” he said. “Chanting constantly ‘From the river to the sea!’ You know what ‘From the river to the sea!’ is? If you don’t, that’s alright. Most of the students chanting it don’t understand that they are chanting genocidal comments.”

“From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” is often viewed by Jews as a call for their extermination and eradication from Israel.

The protesters who chant the phrase “want to wipe out all Jews, and they want to destroy the state of Israel,” Scarborough said. “They are Hamas on college campuses when they chant that.”

Scarborough and co-host Mika Brzezinski agreed that while many of the students may not be aware of the chant’s true meaning, the “adults” on these campuses surely do, they said.

“The adults there do,” Scarborough said. “This is a long time coming. This has been coming since the 1960s, and, now, the people that were burning down college campuses, the people that were taking over presidents’ offices, those people are now on the faculty senate trying to encourage these students to do the same.”
