(Free Beacon) A Harvard University faculty member who teaches courses on human rights law and international “negotiation skills” recently praised the slain leader of Hamas as a “hero” and called the terrorist organization a “movement for freedom, for liberation.”
Harvard refers to Diana Buttu, a Palestinian-Canadian lecturer in its Division of Continuing Education, as an “international human rights” lawyer who has worked as “the only female negotiator” in Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. She has also worked as a spokeswoman for the Palestinian Liberation Organization and has sympathized with Hamas.
On Oct. 7, 2023, the day Hamas murdered 1,200 Israeli civilians, Buttu told MSNBC that the attack was the “natural consequence, unfortunately, of 56 years of military occupation and the denial of freedom.”
