Elder of Ziyon
A pogrom that was arguably worse than any that ever occurred in Eastern Europe, an event of organized mass murder and rape, is framed as a "Palestinian counteroffensive."
By people who are, or want to be, social workers.
And this group is consistent. A month after October 7, the same Columbia Social Workers for Palestine - fully aware of the horrors, sexual violence, sadistic torture, murders, attempted murders and kidnappings of thousands of civilians - defended Hamas in a letter to Columbia's dean:
Make no mistake, terrorism is exactly what they are supporting. The letter is titled "Statement in Support of Palestinian Resistance."
The letter says, "reducing the attack on October 7th to a 'surprise attack carried out by Hamas' opportunistically rejects the struggles of millions of people with a blanket denunciation of resistance."
According to CSSWPalestine, October 7 wasn't terror - it was justified resistance. There is literally nothing that Palestinians can do to Jews that would be considered immoral, according to these "social workers."
They start off the letter by claiming that their support of Hamas terror is consistent with the ethical code of the National Association of Social Workers:
Defending Palestinian resistance aligns with the NASW code of ethics: “The primary mission of the social work profession is to enhance human well-being and help meet the basic human needs of all people, with particular attention to the needs and empowerment of people who are vulnerable, oppressed, and living in poverty.”
That would be astonishing for anyone else to say. One of the specific ethical principles of the National Association of Social Workers is "Social workers respect the inherent dignity and worth of the person. Social workers treat each person in a caring and respectful fashion, mindful of individual differences and cultural and ethnic diversity."
Saying that this includes rape and murder of their Jewish clients doesn't exactly fit those ethical goals.
Unless you are a "social worker for Palestine."
The National Association for Social Workers should issue a clear statement of condemnation against this Columbia group for perverting their code of ethics to justify and support the most heinous crimes anyone could do against another individual.
