The Senate just unanimously adopted a resolution condemning pro-Palestine student protesters as "in solidarity with Hamas" and anti-semitic. 🤡 (www.hawley.senate.gov)

I can't read the original article, but I think everyone here is being disingenuous with their fast and loose interpretations of words.

There's a difference between pro Palestine, anti-apartheid organizations,

And pro Hamas organizations.

As far as I can tell the Senate is censuring student organizations which are pro Hamas.

This is being reported in the media as the Senate is censoring pro-Palestine organizations.

That means at least one party is conflating pro Palestine and pro Hamas.

There are plenty of organizations which are pro Palestine but anti-Hamas. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_political_parties_in_the_State_of_Palestine
