People were spotted today at @nyuniversity tearing down “Kidnapped” posters of the Israeli civilians taken hostage by Hamas. This isn’t activism, it’s supporting the abduction of children. This is vile.

In Israel, civilians are shot and killed while going about their lives. In France, men with kippahs are chased onto train tracks and struck. In America, those who say they "don't care" what happens to the Jews when Israel is obliterated are invited to prestigious universities.
