not only failed to condemn what happened on October 7, but justified it by blaming the victims, and it was done it not so subtle ways, by questioning the authenticity of the rapes, tortures, and killings that occurred on that terrible day, along with the venom hate, and cheers spewed by some professors at very prestigious Universities, instead of actual condemnation of what happened.
