An international coalition of over 100 educational institutions issued a statement condemning Hamas and supporting Israel, calling the fight against the terror group a “fight against evil.”

“We are horrified and sickened by the brutality and inhumanity of Hamas. Murdering innocent civilians including babies and children, raping women, and taking the elderly as hostages are not the actions of political disagreement but the actions of hate and terrorism,” said the statement from Universities United Against Terrorism. “We, the presidents and chancellors of universities, colleges, and higher education associations across the United States of America and the world, stand with Israel, with the Palestinians who suffer under Hamas’ cruel rule in Gaza, and with all people of moral conscience.”
