The University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee (UWM) on Thursday repealed suspensions levied against five pro-Hamas student groups after determining that a series of threats they issued to Zionist Jews over the summer were not “true” threats warranting forfeiture of First Amendment protections.

As The Algemeiner has previously reported, a coalition of groups led by one which calls itself UWM Popular University for Palestine proclaimed in July that “we will no longer normalize genocidal extremists walking on our campus” and that “any organization or entity that supports Israel is not welcome at UWM. This includes the local extremist groups such as Hillel, Jewish Federation, etc.”

Reiterating its first point, the group continued, “We refuse to normalize extremists and extremist groups walking around our campus. We are watching Israel’s legitimacy and international recognition fall to pieces on the world stage. Any organization that has not separated themselves from Israel will be treated accordingly as extremist criminals. Stay tuned.”

In a statement that was not endorsed by the signature of Chancellor Mark Mone, UWM said it is charged daily with balancing competing imperatives, those of protecting both civil rights and free speech. In this case, the university explained, it prioritized the latter.

“Free speech is a fundamental right that UWM is obligated to uphold,” the university said. “At the same time, under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, UWM is responsible for ensuring an educational environment free from discrimination and harassment, which is why UWM concluded that the social media posts did not meet the very high bar under the First Amendment to constitute the legal definition of a true threat, which is a recognized exception to First Amendment protection.”

It continued, “Over the past several months, members of the UWM administration have been in communication with impacted organizations, offering support and safety information. UWM also launched a campaign to educate the campus community about the First Amendment and behavior expectations regarding protests on campus. UWM is continuing to monitor protests and other expressive activities to ensure that individuals and organizations comply with the law and our conduct codes.”

UWM is not the only institution which has refused to take the coalition’s threats seriously. The local district attorney has also said that UWM Popular University for Palestine’s comments are protected by the First Amendment, according to the Milwaukee Jewish Federation, which also sought help from the FBI. However, UWM has previously been accused of failing to protect its Jewish community.

Since the Palestinian terror group Hamas’s Oct. 7 massacre across southern Israel, it has emboldened the radical anti-Zionist groups operating on its campus, according to a paper by UWM political science professor Shale Horowitz.

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s (UWM) chancellor has apologized to the Jewish community for reaching an agreement with an anti-Zionist group which ended a “Gaza encampment” in exchange for the school’s issuing a statement calling for a ceasefire in Israel’s war against Hamas and considering an academic boycott of Israel.

“It is clear to me that UWM should not have weighed in on deeply complex geopolitical and historical issues,” UWM chancellor Mark Mone said on Tuesday. “And for that, I apologize. I acknowledge that it is an increasingly difficult time for many Jewish students at UWM and across America.”

He added, “Let me be clear: UWM resolutely condemns antisemitism, just as we do Islamophobia and all other forms of hatred. Our campus must be a place that welcomes all students and the full expression their history, culture, identity, and ethnicity. But words alone cannot create the culture of inclusion we desire, which is why we must transform our words into commitment and action. This work will take time, as all hard work does, and it will also take the openness of our entire community.”

Mone did not say whether he intends to honor the deal he brokered with Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), a group that has been linked to terrorist organizations and is a source of a substantial number of antisemitic incidents on college campuses. In addition to agreeing to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, on May 12, he issued a statement describing Israel’s war to destroy the Hamas terrorist group in Gaza as “genocide,” citing figures reported by Hamas-controlled authorities which have been lambasted by experts as unreliable. The deal also stipulates UWM’s reviewing “its study abroad policies” and pressuring a local environmental organization to cut ties with two Israeli companies, which Mone has already done.

“University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Chancellor Mark Mone capitulated to protesters who violated UWM codes of conduct and state law, vandalized university property, and used harassment and intimidation to fuel antisemitism on campus,” the Milwaukee Jewish Federation, Hillel Milwaukee, and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) said about the deal in a joint statement. “The agreement is amongst the most offensive and dangerous of any university agreement reached with encampment protesters over the last two weeks.”

Mone is not the only university leader accused of injuring Jewish university life to appease anti-Zionist protesters.

Over the weekend, the world has seen the settler state of Israel openly committing a scholasticide in Gaza. As students, we must and we will take whatever action necessary to ensure that institutions associated with us have no part in this genocide. Scroll through to learn what has happened since the encampment and what will happen in the future for UWM Popular University for Palestine. DISCLOSE, DIVEST! WE WILL NOT STOP! WE WILL NOT REST!

[heartsoulspiritelite]

DYNASTY WAS INCREDIBLEEEEEE.

2 AFRICAN AMERCIANS WERE CROWNED TONIGHT. IM SO PROUD. SO MANY AMAZING THINGS HAPPENED (SOME HORRIBLE, but we'll excuse that for now) THANKS FOR A GOOD NIGHT OF WRESTLING💪

[westofessos]

Happy Forbidden Door day! Here are my predictions.

Green - who I want to win

Red - who I think will win

Honestly for some of them I truly don’t know so I just picked one. Also, yes I want both OC and ZSJ to win and I refuse to pick one.

[flowitch]

okay i actually do have so many thoughts about dynamite

kyle hesitantly leaving will to follow don was so good and so sad

britt & mercedes is the natural choice for a wembley match, i just hope that britt learned how to wrestle while she was away so mercedes doesn't have to carry her like stat did

I'm glad britt's okay, that shit sounds so awful and scary. her & adam can't catch a break with head injuries

there's an alternate universe out there where britt is a heel and joins the evps and goes by her god given name brittany

hangman's new theme (as far as i can tell from the one time we've heard it) is great and fits him perfectly. the dim yellow lighting is also so perfect for his presentation. i saw someone on twitter say that they should pay for hurt by johnny cash to be his theme for PPVs and i think that'd be so awesome

thank god the cowboy is home. there was a distinct lack of cowboy these past few months

using jeff jarrett's real life investment & babyfaceism in the owen as a way to get hanger more heel heat was fantastic

the crowd doing the swerve's house chants to hanger was so fucked up when you remember they're chanting for the dude that broke into hanger's house and his child's bedroom LMAO that shit was so crazy. he has every right to go batshit after being made the bad guy. babyface swerve & heel hanger ended up being inspired booking

hangmatt i missed you so dearly. the angst is wonderful but i was sad for a moment missing the elite being all together. so much has happened in the past year!

i need kris statlander in ways I'm not allowed to say publicly

stat vs willow was great per usual. honestly if they wanted to run that again at wembley maybe with a stip that'd be awesome

bryan vs pac was great as expected. i did some looking and the only times they've fought 1-on-1 was once in 2007 for roh and once in 2009 for a UK indie promotion

will vs danny was great. usually my dad and i joke that certain people in matches have a -3% chance of winning when we can guess the booking but in this instance i upped danny to a 40%. i feel like he honestly had a shot based on the storyline they're doing with will. even though he didn't win im glad he has a feud now instead of just squashes or run-ins to help other people

it was def time to turn mjf fully heel again. i think his babyface run was great especially during the btybb era but being a heel is his bread and butter so it was def time.

we should all start assuming someone's about to die when they're wearing white. that's how u know the blood is coming

one minute danny is thrusting in will's face and the next he's dead, daddy magic has his eyes ripped out, and mjf is throwing trash at fans while they attempt to fist fight him

I'm so so so excited that the build to all in has started. they have so much time for it i think it's gonna be amazing

mark briscoe declaring for blood & guts made me very happy. he's gonna do some crazy shit. i really wish the acclaimed weren't in it because i cannot stand max caster but sadly that's probably happening. i keep thinking maybe swerve will declare since they hinted it & that's what'll help the bucks convince hanger to join their team. I'm all for them being in forced close proximity and angst happening. god bless

there was a chompy-shaped hole in the heart of this year's shark week episode. i liked him terrorizing commentary last year. speaking of commentary, taz being kicked off commentary should be considered a crime

i think that's all for now

[keybladeofsteel]

She loves pissing these people off 🤣🤣

[waitmyturtles]

Great news that I just discovered: the new NHK asadora (short morning dorama) Maiagare! is being subbed. Our Cherry darling Akaso Eiji has a starring role in it, which is a nice big deal, and he’s already getting lots of magazine coverage in Japan because of it. Yay, as long as it’s not a gigantic lift to get/watch the episodes, I’ll be adding it to my list!

[blueonwrestling]

Wow fuck me the new Japan strong was a bloodbath last night in terms of injuries, Forbidden Door starting early.

Mark Davis and Mercedes Mone injuries, fuck me.

Nice to see Willow win the NJ strong women's belt, but FUCK.

[goldendirk]
