On Wednesday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” Columbia Business School professor Ran Kibbetts said students have been radicalized on college campuses “for decades” and that “it’s the same thing as the U.S. “This is a real long-term threat to democracy.” In the world. “
Professor Kibbetts said he was “not surprised” to see some faculty members siding with pro-Hamas protesters, adding, “Some of my colleagues at Columbia have been doing this for decades. There are people,” he said. So I’m not surprised at all. ”
He added that people on campus were “celebrating Hamas’ actions on October 12, just a few days after October 7. Israel was not even close to Gaza at that time.” Unfortunately, Israel was picking up some of the bodies in southern Israel, where they were literally holding a rally to celebrate the victory of Hamas and the “resistance,” as they called it. But no, I’m not surprised at all. I have watched the radicalization of young people on Columbia and other campuses for decades. They will be America’s future leaders. I think this is a real long-term threat to the United States and to democracies around the world. ”
Professor Kibbetts said he thinks most people, including most faculty, are grateful that the NYPD is on campus, and that the overwhelming majority of students and faculty just want to do their jobs. added.
