The Department of Justice announced it will investigate recent events at Columbia University for potential terrorism offenses that occurred over the last two years during campus protests over the Israel-Hamas war.
“Let me be clear: Hamas is a terrorist organization. It has the blood of American citizens on its hands,” Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said during a speech to the Justice Department on Friday. “Any person engaging in the material support of terrorism will be prosecuted. This includes those who threaten acts of violence on behalf of Hamas in the United States or even pay Hamas in the United States.”
