As the pro-Palestinian protests at college campuses across the country become larger and more organized, an investigator with a non-profit watchdog group claims to have uncovered links between the campus protesters and pro-Hamas organizations.
Anti-Israel protests began to spring up at college campuses across the United States almost immediately after the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas terrorists, during which at least 1,200 Israelis were killed and hundreds more were taken hostage. In the following months, emerging evidence has fueled growing speculation that these protests are being funded by pro-Hamas organizations.
Posts on social media have drawn attention to how identical tents are seen in encampments at campuses in different states. Others note how the same pre-printed signs are showing up at different college campuses.
A lawsuit, filed in a Virginia-based federal court on May 5 alleges that national campus organizations American Muslims for Palestine and National Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) are partially responsible for the Oct. 7 massacre of Israelis because “Hamas’s propaganda directed at American audiences is instrumental to its strategy.”A soon-to-be-released analysis by the Capital Research Center (CRC) found that an overwhelming majority of the groups behind the ongoing protests on college campuses are operating as proxies for Hamas.
CRC, established in 1984, investigates non-profit and activist organizations that involve themselves in political advocacy.
In an interview with The Epoch Times, CRC investigator Ryan Mauro spoke about his findings, admitting that he was “shocked” by what he found.
