Someone compared the Hamas campus riots to ‘knocking on an open door’.

But that’s what campus riots have almost always been.

The final act of the farce has university leaders rushing to agree to the demands of the Hamas supporters occupying campuses before the semester ends.

The end of the semester would also end the riots. Most of the students would go home and the remaining outside activists would be all too easy to spot. And without a sizable student body on campuses, there would be all too few Jewish students or faculty members to harass.

Occupying a campus over the summer would be like occupying the beach over the winter. Mostly pointless.

All university administrations have to do now is wait a few weeks. And yet they’re rushing to cut deals that range from a ban on student learning in Israel to partial bans on Israeli companies to including some degree of BDS consideration into their decision-making processes, as well as deals with Hamas colleges like Birzeit and special scholarships and roles for terrorist supporters.

Not only isn’t any of this necessary, but it’s the equivalent of cutting a deal with a terrorist just as he’s about to pass out from lack of sleep.

Administrators are not doing this because they have to, but because they want to, because they’re choosing to support the terrorists.
