‘An Insult To All Americans’: Alan Dershowitz Blasts Biden Over Anti-Islamophobia Push

“What they’re doing, Biden is accusing Americans of being anti-Islam, anti-Muslim, anti-Arab,” Dershowitz continued. “There is just no evidence of that. There was some of that after 9/11 but I haven’t seen one single instance of it. They point to the fact some drunken landlord killed a 6-year-old person who happened to be a Muslim. One case unrelated to the Middle East issue probably, and they make that equivalent to what is going on college campuses.”

Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and other left-wing members of the House of Representatives known as “The Squad” released statements calling for a ceasefire almost immediately after Israel began military operations in response to the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks by Hamas. Tlaib escaped censure when 22 Republicans joined Democrats in voting to table a resolution sponsored by Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia condemning her for her antisemitic comments.

“President Biden wants to create a moral sense of equality, so he always talks about anti-Semitism and in the same breadth talks about anti-Islam and anti-Arab attitudes on college campuses,” Dershowitz said. “That is a myth there is no anti-Arab or Muslim attitudes on college campus. I don’t know of a single incident of where a member of Hamas has been assaulted. It is all directed against Jews. There is pro-Islamic, pro-Hamas, pro-Arab attitudes on university campuses.”

Many of the protests have featured chants of “from the river to the sea, Palestine will soon be free,” a phrase that has connotations of wiping out Israel.
