"The uprising of October 7th was an act of armed resistance. It is not a terrorist attack and it’s not an antisemitic attack."
Judith Butler, a radical leftist academic who described Hamas as “progressive” and part of the Left, and who defended the atrocities of Oct 7 by the Islamic terrorist group, was one of the top signatories to a petition by a group of anti-Israel activists, calling themselves the ‘ In Our Name Campaign’ claiming that they are “Jews” opposed to “ethnic cleansing”.
By that they don’t mean they are by any means opposed to Oct 7, only to Trump’s plan to resettle the terrorist population of Gaza to prevent them from continuing to kill Jews and every other non-Muslim non-Arab group.
Butler’s name appears alongside a handful of celebrities Joaquin Pheonix, Boots Riley (who is not Jewish) and Wallace Shawn who recently suggested that Hitler had more “decency” than the Jewish State, along with career anti-Israel activists like Sharon Brous, a political ally of Kamala Harris, and Jill Jacobs of T’ruah.
