Why is Yale University implicitly endorsing Israeli extremist Ben-Gvir? | Arwa Mahdawi

Shabtai, a Jewish society based at Yale, hosted the extremist far-right politician convicted of supporting terrorism. Why did Yale allow this?

Let me start with a statement that should be obvious: deliberately starving 2 million people - half of whom are children - is indefensible. It is not complicated, it is not a nuanced situation that requires a PhD to parse. It is not an unfortunate and unavoidable part of war. It is quite simply indefensible. I would say that it is also very much prohibited by international human rights law, but that doesn't seem to exist any more, does it?

As I write this, no food, water or medicine has been allowed into Gaza for almost two months. It is impossible to know just how bad the situation really is because Israel has imposed a media blackout on the region. However, aid organizations have said: The Gaza Strip is now likely facing the worst humanitarian crisis in the 18 months" since the war began. Thousands of children are malnourished. Childhood malnutrition, I can't stress enough, has long-term consequences. An entire generation's future has been violently stolen from them.
