Yale campus newspaper censors pro-Israel writer’s column on Hamas beheading men, raping women
NY Post ^ | 10/30/2023 | Ariel Zilber

Yale’s campus newspaper is being criticized for censoring a pro-Israel columnist by removing what it called “unsubstantiated claims that Hamas raped women and beheaded men.”

The Yale Daily News last week cut out the reference from an Oct. 12 column by sophomore Sahar Tartak titled “Is Yalies4Palestine a hate group?”

“I’m still collecting my thoughts on the YDN’s egregious correction,” Tartak, editor in chief of rival campus newspaper Yale Free Press, wrote on her X social media account on Monday.

She reposted a comment by a Yale professor, Nicholas Christakis, who asked: “Are the hostage-taking, murder of children in their beds, burning of people alive, and parading of nude captive women in the street also ‘unsubstantiated’?”

Tartak, from Great Neck, LI, penned the column five days after the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre that slaughtered more than 1,400 Israelis.

Scores of those who were killed had been taking part in a music festival a few miles from the Israel-Gaza border fence when Hamas terrorists invaded the area using hang-gliders and pickup trucks.

Tartak condemned Yalies4Palestine, a student group which posted messages on Instagram blaming Israel for the atrocities.

At least one professor and one student are speaking up. Keep doing it!

Elihu Yale and William F Buckley are spinning in their graves.

I wonder if the YDN refused to publish articles about Russia/Trump connections because they were unsubstantiated. I bet not. In fact I can safely say without looking that almost all of the YDN’s articles are unsubstantiated editorializing

the left wants all Jews DEAD.

It is as simple as that. Don’t fall for their “free speech” BS in situations like this. If the same people were calling for “death to blacks!” or “death to gays!” they would be expelled, doxed, and charged with a hate crime faster than you could read about it!

But because it’s ok to the left to kill all the Jews, NOTHING will be done about this!

The NAZI’s were left wing, and the Democratic party is showing their true Nazi leanings.

Elihu Yale made his fortune off of trading slaves.

I don’t think you’ll see his statue taken down, or his school renamed.

The Ivy League is a hypocrites’ paradise.

That’s where GW the moron went to school.

I’m sure he’ll condemn Yale for supporting terrorism when he gets tired of bashing Trump 😏

Death to all Yale students!

That's the mindset of the racist people attacking Israel and Jews. When you flip it on them, you can see it's sick.

“unsubstantiated claims that Hamas raped women and beheaded men.”

Look at the thread on Hamas Atrocities. There are a total of four photos or videos of rape taken during the Hamas massacre/raid/ghazwa in posts 6, 7, 8, 9. Click on view image if you are brave.

From Ali Sina's book "Understanding Muhammad".

p. 39 Rape

Muhammad allowed his men to rape the women captured in raids. However Muslims faced a dilemma. They wanted to have sex with their female captives, but also wanted to return them for ransom and therefore did not want to make them pregnant. Some of these women were already married whose husbands had escaped when taken by surprise and were still alive. The raiders considered the possibility of "coitus interruptus" (withdrawing from intercourse before ejaculation). Unsure of the best course of action, they sought the counsel of their Prophet. Buhkari reports:

Abu Saeed said "We went out with Allah's Apostle for the Ghazwa of Banu Al-Mustaliq and we received captives from among the Arab captives and we desired women and celibacy became hard on us and we loved to do coitus interruptus. So when we intended to do coitus interruptus, we said "How can we do coitus interruptus before asking Allah's Apostle who is present among us?" We asked (him) about it and he said "It is better for you not to do so, for if any soul (till the Day of Resurrection) is predestined to exists, it will exist.

Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 59, Number 459.

Muhammed did not forbid raping the captive women. Instead he made an asinine claim that when Allah intends to create someone, nothing can prevent it. He told his men that coitus interruptus is ill-advised because it would be an attempt to thwart the will of Allah. He did not say a word against the rape of the captives, and by discouraging coitus interruptus, he supported forced insemination.

He made even his god legitimize with women captured in wars, the so-called "right hand possessions," even if they were married before their capture.

From Raymond Ibrahim - Infidel Women: Islam's "Spoils of War". We are supposed to believe that Muslims suddenly stopped raping infidel women as matter of religious policy. Read here.

The subhuman treatment of non-Muslim women by jihadi organizations such as the Islamic State or Nigeria's Boko Haram - where "infidel women are bought, sold, gang-raped, mutilated, dismembered and burned alive - is relatively well known (thanks to ISIS itself, for disseminating images and videos). Less well known is that "infidel" women are treated in similar ways all across the Muslim world, as explained by a 2016 report:

Good for them. But this is most likely only going to get worse.

In the mid teens we saw the explosion of LGBT / BLM Woke on these Ivy league campuses.

And complacent BoomerCons were confident that once they got into the “real world”, these college graduates would be forced to knock off the Woke crap by the Corporations they worked for.

So much for that idea !

In the same way, with the anti-Israel and anti-Jewish pro-Palestinian agenda, you are looking at what will be dominant in the Corporate world in a few years.

Jews need to be ready for that, and not remain in denial.

I believe those have been taken down from FR - at least on that thread.

Once social media was censored as “hate speech” or “misinformation” as about Covid jabs and masks the young people thought they can censor and cancel accounts for anything on a whim.

Now genuine horrors in the news can disappear or be distorted.
Terrible trend that must be reversed.

Do a right click, then click "view image". They might have been too large to show without the extra clicks.
