‘Radical’ Yale professor faces calls to be fired over comments on Hamas attacksBy Snejana Farberov

A Yale University professor is facing calls to be ousted over her social media posts in which she appeared to justify Hamas terrorists killing Israeli civilians — and called Israel a “murderous, genocidal settler state.”
Zareena Grewal, a historical anthropologist and a documentary filmmaker who works as an associate professor of American studies, ethnicity, race, migration, and religious studies, came under fire after speaking out in support of Palestinians as Hamas’ deadly attack on Israel unfolded.
“My heart is in my throat,” Grewal wrote on X, formerly Twitter, Saturday. “Prayers for Palestinians. Israel is a murderous, genocidal settler state and Palestinians have every right to resist through armed struggle, solidarity.”
Grewal, who in her X bio described herself as a “radical Muslim,” followed up with a series of tweets that appeared to applaud the bloody invasion, which saw entire families wiped out and babies decapitated, according to the Israeli military.
