Cornell Professor “Exhilarated” by Hamas’s Attack Defends Remark


Now, some students are expressing outrage over Rickford’s statement at a pro-Palestinian rally on Sunday, Oct. 15 at the Ithaca Commons. Rickford stated that he was initially “exhilarated” by Hamas’s attack on Israel, in which 1,400 Israelis were killed. Who abhor the targeting of civilians, as do you, as do I,” Rickford said during the rally. But he felt Rickford’s comments were not productive and were instead inciting violence. He told The Sun that while he does not completely support Rickford’s statement, he understands the context behind his statement.
