Walz posed with ‘godfather of campus antisemitism’ The video went viral and was greeted with shock by many on social media at the so-called “slip of the tongue” when the protester described herself as “anti-Jewish.”However, others noted that the wording must have been intended because the student was reading from a prepared speech.One user on X, who writes under the handle Nancy Nakba, said, “I think everyone knew we meant ‘Jew’ whenever we said ‘Zionist’ anyway.”One of the resolutions at the student senate meeting read, “This is the first genocide where people praise the oppressor and hate towards the victim. Something needs to change.” Later, they posted that the ceasefire motion had been ended.Over the past several weeks, university campuses globally, particularly in the United States, have been in uproar over anti-Israel protests against the war to eliminate Hamas.
