Moms Condemn Radical Pro-Hamas Activists for Shutting Down Commencements
"We’re appalled by the illegal and un-American actions of the pro-Hamas protesters”
Moms For America, a nationwide network of over half a million moms fighting for faith, family, and freedom, issued the following statement today addressing the disruption to college commencements caused by pro-Hamas demonstrations on college campuses:
“Today, students at Columbia University should be celebrating their commencement. Sadly, that won’t be happening thanks to radical, pro-Hamas outside agitators and professional activists who prioritize their own political agenda over the best interests of ordinary students.
“The violent pro-Hamas demonstrations on America’s college campuses have cost too much already. They need to end. The Class of 2024 has endured enough disruption. As freshman and sophomores, their college experience was marred by COVID lockdowns. Now, as seniors, their graduation ceremonies are being curtailed and cancelled because an aggressive minority refuses to respect the law or the rights of other students.
“If these protesters truly cared about human rights, they would be calling for Palestinians to be freed from Hamas. Instead they are disrupting the education of their peers in order to celebrate and glorify a brutal terrorist organization that slaughters women and babies.
“As mothers, we are committed to raising patriotic and unentitled children who are proud to recite the Pledge of Allegiance and honor the American flag. We’re appalled by the illegal and un-American actions of the pro-Hamas protesters, and we call on them to end their unlawful demonstrations immediately, before they cause even more harm to innocent students.”
