Devos Spikes the Ball on Williams College Anti-Semitism Intervention



Speaking at a Justice Department summit on anti-Semitism, Besty DeVos, Secretary of Education issued a scathing rebuke of the BDS movement, a campaign led by pro-Palestine activists calling for a boycott, divestment and sanctions of Israel over its treatment of Palestinians according to SFGate.

"These bullies claim they stand for human rights," she said. "But we all know that BDS stands for anti-Semitism."

DeVos commented that her department had recently intervened at Williams College after the student government rejected the creation of a pro-Israel group. The department negotiated an agreement that gave the pro-Israel group recognition as a student organization.
