Arab world tells Hamas to lay down arms and end rule of Gaza

The Arab world has told Hamas to disarm and surrender control of Gaza.

Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Egypt called for the Palestinian terror group to disband on Tuesday, the first time they have done so.

They joined 14 other countries, including Britain and France, in signing a statement that also condemned the Oct 7 terror attacks and told Hamas to give up power.

It is the first time Arab countries have condemned the group and demanded it play no part in the future governance of Palestine.

Twenty-two Democratic members of the House of Representatives and one Republican voted against a resolution on Wednesday which condemned those supporting Hamas in American universities, following a rise in campus tensions over the conflict in the Middle East.

The resolution, introduced by Rep. Burgess Owens of Utah, a Republican, on October 19, was passed with 396 votes for to 23 against, with 14 not voting. It condemned "support of Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorist organizations at institutions of higher education, which may lead to the creation of a hostile environment for Jewish students, faculty, and staff," as well as "all forms of antisemitism" on college campuses.

@WalksWith for some reason he's randomly recycling an article that's over a year and half old about a piece of political theater that didn't do anything to address real antisemitism (like that found in abundance from MAGA on Twitter everyday, even from Grok) but instead conflated antisemitism with being anti-Israeli apartheid, and at best would seek to limit free speech, which is very ironic since the Reich wing has been hollering about free speech for quite some time now, but what they really always mean is «free speech for me, not for thee»
