Abstract
- A recent deadly attack by Hamas has sparked a backlash in the United States, particularly in universities, workplaces, and political circles. Some individuals and groups sympathetic to the Palestinian cause have blamed Israel for the attack, citing the nation's policies as the reason for Palestinian violence. However, these statements have faced resistance from Jewish groups, university leaders, and corporate leaders, with some threatening not to hire students who blame Israel. The controversy highlights the deep divide between progressive Democrats and moderate Democrats and Republicans over Israel and the treatment of Palestinians. [Extracted from the article]
