Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said Hillary Clinton was 'quite dismissive' when she said anti-Israel protesters 'don't know very much...about the history of the Middle East.'
Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., accused former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton of being 'quite dismissive of students’ concerns,' when she ripped anti-Israel student protesters as being ignorant about Middle Eastern affairs. 'They don’t know very much at all about the history of the Middle East, or, frankly, about history in many areas of the world, including our own country,' Clinton said earlier this week.
Van Hollen said Americans have the right to peacefully protest and that there is a need to ensure students feel safe on campus. He also said there is a need to 'stamp out antisemitism and hate' wherever it is seen. 'But I believe that the great majority of the students are protesting, are following very closely what’s happening in Gaza. They see what’s a very high civilian death toll,' Van Hollen said.
Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton, you are a war criminal!' a man shouted as the former Secretary of State walked onto a lecture hall stage at Columbia University in New York City. Fox News Digital’s Jeffrey Clark contributed to this report.
