An anti-Israel rally took place on Harvard Yard in Cambridge, Mass. The claims made by certain student groups during the rally were morally bankrupt and do not represent the views of many of their members. These groups used Harvard’s name to lend credibility to their outrageous claims, even though the statements were published by organization leaders without proper debate or voting by members. It is important to note that just as Hamas does not represent all Palestinians, the radicals responsible for the letters do not represent all members. Their actions are shameful for co-opting and misrepresenting the voices of others.
