(Daily Caller) A college chapter of the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) is hosting an event on April 7 to support five Palestinian Americans convicted of supporting terrorism and protest the “injustice” of their sentencing, according to an Instagram post.
The University of Minnesota (UMN) chapter invited daughters of two of the members of the Holy Land 5, leaders of an Islamic charity found to have provided funding to the terrorist organization Hamas in 2009, to speak about their fathers’ experiences, according to the post. SJP claims that the event is designed to be a “powerful learning experience” about the “injustice” of the men’s trials and sentencing.
The event will discuss how the U.S. government imprisoned the Holy Land 5 members for “activism and charity work supporting Palestinians living under occupation,” according to the chapter’s Instagram post.
