On Wednesday, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Missouri) slammed so-called pro-Palestinian protesters at U.S. universities on FNC’s “Hannity.” They threaten Jewish Americans, in some cases calling for the destruction of Israel.
The Missouri Republican called anti-Israel demonstrators “bougie jihadis.”
“Senator, let’s talk about the guard you’re calling. I think that’s the right call, but I don’t think Biden wants to alienate his radical base.” That’s why he won’t do it. I think.
“Well, for sure. I mean, Sean, this is all about the fact that he has a pro-Hamas base,” host Sean Hannity said. “But listen, Eisenhower did the right thing in his ’57 when he sent the 101st Airborne to Little Rock. Why not do it for Jewish Americans?”
“I mean, in this day and age, in this country, if you’re a Jewish American, you’re putting your life at risk because there’s all these Brgy Jihadists out there in college who are crazy about TikTok.” You shouldn’t feel that way.” Those who are calling for your death are calling for the destruction of the State of Israel,” Hawley replied. “I mean, what’s going on on these campuses? Send in the National Guard to wake up these kids. They know they can’t do that. They have to know that they have no right to occupy the campus. They have no right to threaten other students. They should be removed from there, and the National Guard will help them do that.”
