Elizabeth Magill, president of the University of Pennsylvania, was forced to resign because of her refusal to condemn university students' slogans against the crimes and genocide of the Zionist regime. The president of the University of Pennsylvania was forced to resign days after she appeared at an interrogation-like congressional hearing and refused to condemn student slogans against the Israeli regime's crimes. At a congressional hearing, New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik asked the presidents of the three universities of Harvard, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts (MIT) to consider student slogans against the crimes of the Zionist regime as genocide of the Jews, which they refused to do. The Congressional Representative also responded that your response was unacceptable and you should all resign. Users of the social network X expressed sharp criticism of the question and answer session in the US Congress. Meanwhile, MIT's president has the support of his board of directors and continues to serve after the congressional hearings. The suppression of freedom of expression in America continues, while the country's support for the crimes of the Zionist regime has led to the martyrdom of more than 17,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
