“If it takes a member of Congress to force a university president to fire a pro-terrorist, antisemitic faculty chair, then Columbia University leadership is failing Jewish students and its academic mission. No amount of overlawyered, overprepped, and over-consulted testimony is going to cover up for failure to act.”

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik

US House of Representatives

“To the Jewish community, you are my brothers and sisters. I am so sorry that I let you down. I am so sorry that you screamed about it for years and I didn’t hear you. I am so sorry I didn’t stand up with you. I am so sorry I pretended not to see the flagrant and hateful anti-semitism. But my eyes are open and I see you now. I hear you. I’m with you, and I promise to never let you down again.”

Elica Le Bon

Daughter of Iran, Artist, Activist, Attorney

It’s appalling the U.S. allowed passage of a resolution that fails to condemn Hamas. The UN has always been unwilling to condemn this group of terrorists, cowards and rapists. We must stand with Israel and stop pandering to the political fringe or Hamas apologists.

Senator John Fetterman

US Senator - PA

Music must always be our safe space — when that is violated, it strikes at the very core of who we are. On Oct. 7, we felt that again when we heard the tragic news from the Supernova Music Festival for Love, that over 360 music fans lost their lives, and another 40 were kidnapped.

“Antisemitism has been called the “oldest form of hatred. Antisemitism has taken on a new form that has given the oldest hatred a renewed veneer of respectability. This is, in part, due to the troubling rise of anti-Zionism, which must be recognized for what it is: Antisemitism 2.0.”

Noa Tishby

Israeli Actress and Writer
