A billboard truck drove near Harvard’s campus Wednesday displaying the names and photos of Harvard students whose organizations signed a statement blaming solely Israel for the deadly attacks by Hamas.

The “doxxing truck” appeared days after the Harvard Palestine Solidarity Groups, a coalition of Harvard student groups, earlier this week released a statement that held “the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence,” following the attacks by Hamas that have killed more than 1,200 Israelis and more than 25 American citizens. More than 1,400 in Gaza have also been killed since Israel started strikes on Gaza following the deadly Hamas attack.

Some students and their groups have since distanced themselves or withdrawn their endorsements from the statement amid an intense backlash inside and outside of Harvard. Several said they did not read the statement before they signed it.

    On one hand, maybe don’t call the worst antisemitic attack since the Holocaust Jews’ fault. On the other, don’t go around fucking doxxing kids.

    The whole world needs to turn the heat down a notch, like right the fuck now.

          If someone can’t tell the difference between Isreal and jews, they shouldn’t have a gun in the first place.

          By that logic no government can be criticized. Do we ignore the Chinese Communist Party committing genocide because people of Asian descent get blowback from racists looking for an excuse?

      don’t call the worst antisemitic attack since the Holocaust Jews’ fault.

      Maybe don’t misrepresent their opinion. That’s not what they said.

      As an American, I can admit that we are essentially “to blame” (put in caps so nobody focuses on that, just using the rhetoric of this thread for the comparison) for 9/11.

      If it were me, I wouldn’t say we were “to blame” for 9/11 (though perhaps some folks knew something was going to happen and did nothing), but more like it was a direct consequence of our government’s actions. I would say this is in a similar vein.
