The White House has denounced the violent rhetoric and physical threats at college campus protests related to the anti-Israel movement. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre emphasized that while the administration supports free speech, it will not tolerate violence or intimidation. The protests at Columbia University, where hateful antisemitic remarks were reported, were particularly condemned. President Biden believes in open debate and non-discrimination on campuses but stressed that protests must remain peaceful and students must feel safe. The White House’s stance reflects a broader national effort to combat antisemitism and promote respect for free speech and diversity on college campuses.
