‘Abhorrent and Heinous’

Harvard University is facing criticism from some its most prominent political alumni – including Republican members of Congress Ted Cruz and Elise Stefanik – for not condemning a student-led statement that blamed Israel for the surprise attack Saturday .
They along with Democrats blasted the school for not standing up for Israel.
“What the hell is wrong with Harvard?” Cruz, a Texas senator who attended Harvard Law School, posted on social media.
Stefanik, a New York congresswoman and the House Republican Conference Chairwoman posted: “It is abhorrent and heinous that Harvard student groups are blaming Israel for Hamas’ barbaric terrorist attacks that have killed over 700 Israelis.”
The students originally wrote in a Saturday statement that the Hamas-led attack “did not occur in a vacuum” and that Israel was “entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.”
