New England Patriots team owner Robert Kraft has taken a stand against antisemitism following the recent terror attacks in Israel. Kraft announced his decision to withdraw support from Columbia University due to the rise of antisemitic violence at the Ivy League institution. This move comes as part of his commitment to combatting antisemitism through his philanthropic organization, Foundation to Combat Antisemitism.

In a statement released by the Foundation, Kraft expressed his gratitude for the academic scholarship he received from Columbia, which enabled him to pursue higher education and kickstart his career. However, he lamented the current state of the university, stating that the institution he once cherished has transformed into a place marred by hateful ideologies.
