Miss shocked me beyond belief:

• Joe Biden JUST Got HORRIBLE NEWS! | ...
Alan Dershowitz and I try our best to be fair when it comes to freedom of speech. The right of Israel to defend herself while at the same time acknowledging innocent people in Palestine are in danger. How do we hold the idea that Hamas and Palestine are different? How do we hold in our head that Hamas in dangerous but strategically uses innocent people to shield them? This is a tough conversation.

Alan Dershowitz discusses anti-Semitism in the U.S. and at universities since the October 7th attacks with Stephen Gardner. He says current anti-Semitism mirrors the 1930s with American Nazi marches and Ivy League Nazi sympathy, though modern administrators fail to apply standards against anti-Jewish speech. Dershowitz believes radical faculty indoctrinate students against Israel due to opposing American/Western values, not human rights, as they ignore mistreated groups like the Uyghurs.

He argues "pro-Palestine" demonstrations celebrate Hamas attacking Israel, not Palestinians, starting before Israeli retaliation. Dershowitz states supporting Palestine requires opposing Hamas, which oppresses Gazans. He claims demonstrations celebrate killing Israelis, with students supporting the attacks, not seeking peace or ceasefires. Dershowitz ties campus anti-Zionism to broad anti-Americanism and rejection of Western traditions and patriotism.

Regarding his book on ending Hamas, Dershowitz advocates totally destroying Hamas, disabling Iran's nuclear capabilities, and persuading Saudi Arabia to join Abraham Accords, disincentivizing terrorism. He acknowledges civilian casualties but blames Hamas' "dead baby strategy" of using human shields. Dershowitz says Netanyahu failed to prevent the attacks but, as Prime Minister, will be held responsible. He sees Rep. Tlaib's censure as complex - she abused her position lying about attacks, but censorship risks punishing speech.
