CUNY Law Dean applauds student's 'hate speech' against Israel, NYPD, and military
[NYPOST] CUNY Law School’s dean came under fire Tuesday when video emerged of her clapping at a graduate’s incendiary May 12 commencement address that the public university’s trustees belatedly labeled "hate speech."

"Everyone was applauding on the stage. The dean applauded," Jeffey Lax, a professor who is co-founder of the pro-Jewish Students and Faculty for Equality at CUNY, said of Dean Sudha Setty and others.

It took more than two weeks for brass hats at the City University of New York Law School to denounce the commencement speech of 2023 graduate Fatima Mousa Mohammed.

In her address, Mohammed called the NYPD "fascist
...anybody you disagree with, damn them...
" and accused Israel of indiscriminately murdering Paleostinians.

Outraged critics — who have called for stripping the public institution of its billions of dollars in annual taxpayer funding — complained that this was the second year in a row that CUNY Law’s student speaker has bashed Israel.

Last year, student speaker Nordeen Kiswani used her commencement speech to complain about a "campaign of Zionist harassment by well-funded organizations with ties to the Israeli government and military on the basis of my Paleostinian identity and organizing, while the law school’s faculty council passed a resolution supporting the pro-Paleostinian boycott, sanctions and divestment movement against Israel in support of the students.

#2 Sudha Setty joined the City University of New York School of Law as dean and professor of law on July 1, 2022. Previously, she served as dean of Western New England University School of Law, where she focused on enhancing social justice lawyering and increasing institutional commitments to racial justice and diversity, equity, and inclusion. She led the creation of its Center for Social Justice in 2019 and led the faculty in adopting a graduation requirement for racial justice coursework, adopted in April 2021.

Ticked all the boxes, that's for sure.

#4 Anyone can be as special as the Jews, my dear Aca Joe. All they have to do is try.

A good template is to be exactly the opposite of you in every way — even you could do it easily.

#5 I sort of think of Joe as special. In my book he is Special Joe. I almost wish he was Edward.

#6 /\ Nice ring to it, 'Special Joe.'

It's just a matter of time until he is fully assimilated, 5 maybe 10 years ?
