Students at the University of Washington (UW) announced a date to set up their Gaza Camp opposing Israel and the country's war against Hamas terrorists after activists were criticized for not having enough "arab or Muslim leadership" to lead the protest.
The "UW Palestine Encampment" will be erected on Monday at 8 am in the school's quad, which is one of the last days of Passover.
On Thursday, social media posts called for the creation of a “UW Palestine encampment” on the quad to "end Zionism on campus." The post began receiving backlash from other activists online.
Comments on the post included, "Were there any conversations with Palestinian orgs or students about this encampment?" as well as "Why is there no arab or muslim leadership? this is the only page i have seen this posted, which leads me to believe that no other orgs endorse this action. this is dangerous and weird to be honest (sic)."
An update following the backlash announced the activists would postpone the camp “to make sure this encampment is a better reflection of the UW community, and having even greater unity with Muslim, Palestinian, and Arab students.”
Student protestors called on UW to "end US aid to Israel, cut ties with Boeing, and divest and materially cut ties with Israel."
Additionally, they called for an end to the Jewish state of Israel.
The University of Washington will be joining other colleges throughout the US that have created similar Gaza Camps, which have been inundated with students and faculty showing open support for Hamas terrorists and threatening Jewish community members on campus.
UW is currently under investigation for antisemitism by the US Department of Education.
