Upset about the students, professors and faculty members at United States college and university campuses who are protesting against Israel’s actions in Gaza, prominent Jewish law firms are suing National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP) and its affiliates for allegedly working as “collaborators and propagandists” for Hamas in America.
An umbrella organization said to be organized by American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) to coordinate the ongoing protests, NSJP is in the crosshairs of a powerful Zionist contingent that is hellbent upon erasing the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and eliminating Americans’ right to free speech whenever that speech offends people who adhere to the Jewish and Zionist religions.

The lawsuit, which reportedly represents numerous victims of the October 7 incident in Israel, is being celebrated by the right-wing media, which kowtows to Israel based on the belief that opposing Israel will provoke wrath and curses from God, who has “blessed” Israel in its current form, they say.
The law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP argues that AMP and NSJP have direct past ties to “scrutinized” organizations that are functioning as the mouthpiece of Hamas, Israel’s archenemy in all this.
So-called conservative media outlets are reporting that one of the first SJP chapters was founded by Dr. Hatem Bazian, a lecturer in the Department of Ethnic Studies at the University of California Berkeley, who has supposedly made “antisemitic” posts on social media in the past.
Bazian is also credited with having founded American Muslims for Palestine, a group on which he now serves as chairman.
The attorney general of the state of Virginia sued AMP for alleged connections to a network of U.S.-based organizations that supposedly provided material support to Hamas. The new suit, however, claims these connections and material support are still taking place today.
The new lawsuit is full of alleged evidence showing that these various pro-Palestine groups are functioning based on Hamas’ “grand strategy” of “terror-by-propaganda” that must be stopped.
“It is deeply ironic that the same people carrying signs saying ‘Death to America’ and ‘Death to Jews’ claim they are protected by free speech. They are not,” said vice chair of Greenberg Traurig Richard Edlin in a statement.
“Free speech has never included the active support of terrorism, and it has never protected the destruction of private property or the brutalization of innocent men, women, and children of many faiths, not just Jews.”
Edlin would continue in his statement to call pro-Palestine free speech “an American problem, as well as a Jewish problem” that must be stopped so that Jews and their supporters feel better as they go about their days.
“We cannot – and through this lawsuit, we are saying we will not – allow the infiltration of Hamas-directed hatred, violence, and intimidation anywhere we can prevent it,” Edlin continued, issuing direct threats against the defendants.
“If the defendants believe they can set up operations in America to create a mass culture of fear, threats, violence, and intimidation to undermine our cherished educational institutions, affect our governmental policies, and force Hamas’s evil ideology on American or Israeli soil, they are about to find out how mistaken they are.”
In a statement of response, American Muslims for Palestine refuted what it described as a mischaracterization of its mission.
“Once properly served, AMP will gladly demonstrate in any jurisdiction that it operates fully within the laws of the United States,” commented the Muslim Legal Fund of America, an organization that represents the defendants.
