The reaction to the Hamas attack on Israel by left wing college students is disgusting.

At Harvard University, 31 student groups signed a letter blaming Israel as “entirely responsible” for Hamas’ barbaric slaughter of innocent Israelis including 260 young adults at a concert on Saturday morning.

These students publicly chose to stand with monsters committing war crimes, shooting children in their beds, raping women and kidnapping civilians.

A student leader from the Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee, one of the groups behind the letter,  is the son of wealthy perfume tycoon Jo Malone.

The Daily Mail reports, according to Harvard’s directory of student groups, Josh Willcox, 22, is listed as one of three students who runs the Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee.

Willcox has lived a privileged life including attending an elite school $30,000-a-year school in London and living in luxury apartments in New York and London.

From The Daily Mail:

His mother, Jo, a British perfume giant founder who sold her eponymous company to Estee Lauder in 1999, refused to address her son, simply saying the war in the Middle East had left her ‘heartbroken’ as she branded the attack by Hamas as ‘abhorrent’.

****
In a statement to DailyMail.com Jo said: ‘We as a family are heartbroken by the events of recent days and strongly condemn all forms of violence.

‘The abhorrent attack on innocent people on Saturday in Israel is beyond what any family should endure.’

Wilcox has written several articles championing Palestine for Harvard’s student newspaper The Crimson including, If You Really Want to Make a Change, Start Organizing,  Palestinian Freedom Goes Beyond Giving Kenneth Roth a Fellowship, and To the Editor: When Will You Stop Silencing Palestine?

The Gateway Pundit’s Mike LaChance shared that the public reaction to the letter has been near-universal disgust.  Now, Harvard students are beginning to worry about their future employment prospects, something Wilcox does not have to worry about with his family’s wealth to fall back on.

TGP reported that hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman called on Harvard to release all of the names of the students that are members of these 31 anti-Semitic campus groups.

Ackman wants to make sure these young Hamas supporters are never hired by a Wall Street firm.

While some students are trying to walk back the letter, claiming they had no say in organizations adding their support, Ackman did not back down.

Below is the original joint statement by by Harvard Palestine Solidarity Groups:

We, the undersigned student organizations, hold the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.

Today’s events did not occur in a vacuum. For the last two decades, millions of Palestinians in Gaza have been forced to live in an open-air prison. Israeli officials promise to ‘open the gates of hell,’ and the massacres in Gaza have already commenced.

Palestinians in Gaza have no shelters for refuge and nowhere to escape. In the coming days, Palestinians will be forced to bear the full brunt of Israel’s violence.

The apartheid regime is the only one to blame. Israeli violence has structured every aspect of Palestinian existence for 75 years.

From systematized land seizures to routine airstrikes, arbitrary detentions to military checkpoints, and enforced family separations to targeted killings, Palestinians have been forced to live in a state of death, both slow and sudden.

Today, the Palestinian ordeal enters into uncharted territory. The coming days will require a firm stand against colonial retaliation. We call on the Harvard community to take action to stop the ongoing annihilation of Palestinians.

This statement was co-authored by a coalition of Palestine solidarity groups at Harvard. For student safety, the names of all original signing organizations have been concealed at this time.
