The world is watching – fire these hateful presidents NOW: Congresswoman ELISE STEFANIK shamed three top college bosses in the infamous Jewish genocide row… Here she writes for DailyMail.com to make her unswerving demand

Ask yourself one simple question: Should calling for the genocide of Jews be considered persecution and bullying?

Anyone with any decency knows that the answer is a resounding yes.

Yet when the presidents of Harvard, MIT, and Upenna testified under oath before Congress this week as I questioned them about the rampant and unrelenting anti-Semitism infecting their institutions, I could hardly believe what I was hearing.

Indeed, their moral decay shocked the world.

I asked each of the three presidents—Claudine Gay (Harvard), Sally Kornbluth (MIT), Elizabeth Magill (UPEN)—a simple question that even a child could answer, not to mention the leaders of our best universities.

Does “calling for the genocide of the Jews” violate the codes of conduct of the relevant institutions?

Each of them twisted and dodged.

When the presidents of Harvard, MIT, and Upenna testified under oath before Congress this week as I questioned them about the rampant and unrelenting anti-Semitism infecting their institutions, I could hardly believe what I was hearing. (Pictured: Rep. Elise Stefanik).

MIT’s Kornbluth said such depraved behavior would only count as harassment depending on the “context” – if it is “targeted at individuals rather than public statements” and if it is “pervasive and severe.”

I noted that her rhetoric not only dehumanizes the Jewish people, but also implies that calls for the destruction of Jews “are not harsh.” And yet she refused to change her tune.

UPenn’s Magill also infuriated, smiling smugly when she said, “This decision depends on context.”

Deeply concerned, I pressed for clearer answers. But Magill’s response was extremely shocking: “If speech becomes behavior. It could be stalking.”

Does “conduct” mean “committing an act of genocide”? I asked in shock, giving her another opportunity to correct the record. She could not.

Finally, I approached Harvard’s president, Gay. But, unfortunately, her answer was the same: whether calls for the mass murder of Jews at her university constitute persecution “depends on the context.”

My God, in what “context” is it even possible to call for genocide?

It doesn’t take a Harvard degree to see the problem here.

It is now abundantly clear that vile anti-Semitism has taken root on Ivy League campuses.

Higher education has long been a hotbed of leftist hate, breeding awakened groupthink in the next generation. And here is proof that it comes directly from above, from university presidents who are unwilling to defend those who do not fit their warped worldview of what constitutes a “victim”—in this case, their own oppressed Jewish students.

These congressional hearings were never meant to be difficult or controversial. However, having failed to come to the defense of American Jews, we can only assume that these three presidents are indifferent to the blatant anti-Semitism that they failed to condemn.

Within days of the hearing, millions of people joined my call for their dismissal.

As pressure mounted around the world, President Gay backtracked, insisting in a statement that her words were “confused.”

President Magill went even further, releasing a pathetic video message “clarifying” her position that clearly did not include any apology.

MIT’s Kornbluth has remained silent so far—and perhaps rightly so. In the end, no amount of desperate PR can cleanse or hide the shame.

If Harvard, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania are to regain any shred of legitimacy, these institutions must gain moral clarity.

It starts with immediately firing these three pathetic presidents.

The world is watching and waiting.
