UC Regent Jay Sures slammed a virtual appearance last week by a failed Palestinian suicide bomber at the University of California, Berkeley.
Sures, who is Jewish and the vice chairman of United Talent Agency, called the event “disgusting and abhorrent.”
“I think when you talk about in the larger context of the University of California, I can tell you, as one of just a couple of the Jewish regents, I’m very satisfied with the steps the administration has taken to try to curb antisemitism on campus,” he told Fox News Digital.
“Having said that, there’s just going to be circumstances across the campuses, across all college campuses, where there’s going to be groups of people that are going to promote and justify and glorify antisemitism,” the super-agent added.
The accused bomber, Israa Jaabis, spoke to Berkeley law school students for a “Palestinian Political Prisoners Day” event on April 20, drawing applause as she said the crowd “makes us hopeful that there remains some humanity.”
