    This headline is inflammatory clickbait (which is not surprising coming from the Jerusalem Post.) ‘Columbia students are working with Hamas’ is a world away from the truth, which appears to be that some student groups are alleged to have possibly received funding indirectly from Hamas through a labyrinthine network of organizations that even reporters are having a hard time tracing. All of this, of course, is according to an Israeli citizen and former hostage who definitely has no reason to be biased against his ideological enemies and former captors whatsoever and a lengthy chain of ‘evidence’ that is circumstantial at best, and frequently just amounts to guilt by association.
