Israeli actress Noa Tishby testified before Congress on Wednesday calling on the FBI to investigate the funding behind pro-Palestinian groups at American college campuses, effectively “brainwashing” and “grooming” students into aligning with “terrorist sympathizers” amid the Jewish state’s war against Hamas.
Speaking before the House Ways and Means Committee, Tishby argued that violence and harassment against Jewish students “has been planned, engineered and incubated for decades by heavily funded, professionally orchestrated groups with close connections to terrorist organizations, like Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the PFLP.”
“One of the main perpetrators of campus Jew-hate is Students for Justice in Palestine or SJP,” she said in her opening statement.
“SJP was set up and is supported by groups and individuals with well documented records of support and fundraising for terrorist organizations,” Tishby told lawmakers. “Individuals like Hatem Bazien, who founded SJP and is also the founder of American Muslims for Palestine – or AMP.
