While visiting Wellesley College on Saturday, Joe Biden’s close aide Hillary Clinton encountered opposition after coming under fire from pro-Palestine demonstrators.
Joe Biden’s close aide and former US State Secretary Hillary Clinton encountered opposition on Saturday during her visit to Wellesley College, following her public outcry against pro-Palestine activists in New York.
After receiving the privilege of having a school building named after her, Clinton went back to her education. Demonstrators gathered on campus to threaten those attending the women-led democracy event, which included Clinton, according to Fox News.
They asserted that the bloodshed against Palestinians had no impact on the former US secretary of state.
The demonstration takes place at a time when the Biden administration is facing criticism for its handling of Israel’s war in Gaza, which has resulted in the deaths of over 33,000 Palestinians, and for not calling for a ceasefire.
Frustrated students allegedly handed out fliers throughout Wellesley campus, saying that Clinton is the “most beloved war criminal” and that the former first lady had “blood on her hands.” These accusations were published by local news media.
The protest was acknowledged by the college administration, but it was not condemned.
Sheilah Shaw Horton, vice president and dean of students, issued the following statement: “I encourage all who participate in activism to follow the demonstration policy and be mindful of our Code of Student Conduct so that you remain safe for yourself, and for our community.”
When Clinton visited American campuses, she encountered protests on previous occasions.
When she visited Columbia University in February, protesters heckled her and referred to her as a “war criminal.”
Only a few days have passed since Clinton gave a tirade to American voters on Jimmy Fallon’s “Tonight Show.” This newest rally took place in Wellesley.
Clinton was asked by Fallon how she would handle those who are “upset” because they only had two choices: incumbent Joe Biden and former President Trump.
Clinton said, “Get over yourself,” and continued, “Those are the two choices.”
Bill and Hillary Clinton are charged with aiding and abetting genocide.
Hillary and her spouse Bill Clinton received derogatory remarks in New York City, calling each other “super predators” and “pieces of sh*t.”
Pro-Palestine demonstrators heckled the Clintons as they were leaving a Biden fundraiser, accusing them of “facilitating genocide” in Palestine.
“You bear the responsibility for crimes and genocides. One protestor yelled, “You’re aiding in the genocide of the Palestinian people!”
Hillary smiled and went to get into her car, seemingly unfazed by the insults directed at the pair. A yell went up after that, saying, “Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton, we can see you hiding in the back of your car.”Another protester said, “I hope their screams haunt you every night.”
On October 7, 2023, Hamas launched an unprecedented onslaught on Israel that resulted in the deaths of at least 1,200 Israelis.
