Ethan, a Jewish Columbia University student and former IDF medic, has denounced the anti-Israel protests that have spread across the nation. In an interview with Fox News, he refuted the protesters' anti-Zionist and Holocaust-denying rhetoric, asserting that their actions are both damaging and unfounded.
Ethan, a 20-year-old medical student who served as a national medic in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), spoke out against the anti-Israel protests that have disrupted campuses nationwide. In an interview with Fox News' Guy Benson, Ethan shared his perspective as a student and a veteran who has witnessed firsthand the consequences of violence and hatred.
Ethan expressed his dismay over the protesters' tactics, describing them as "chaotic and destructive." He condemned their vandalism, intimidation, and the spread of misinformation, which has created a climate of fear and division on campus.
"Columbia has always been a place of open dialogue and academic freedom," Ethan said. "But these protests have crossed a line. They are not about legitimate debate or discussion. They are about silencing dissenting voices and promoting anti-Semitism."
As a Jewish student, Ethan feels particularly targeted by the anti-Israel sentiment. He rejects the protesters' claims of "apartheid" and "genocide," emphasizing that Israel is a diverse and democratic country with a robust human rights record.
"The accusations that Israel is a racist state are simply not true," Ethan said. "Israel is home to diverse communities of Arabs, Jews, Christians, and others who live together in peace and harmony."
Ethan also refuted the protesters' denial of the Holocaust. He pointed out that the historical record overwhelmingly supports the fact that the Holocaust occurred, and that denying its existence is an affront to the victims and their families.
"Holocaust denial is a dangerous form of revisionism," Ethan said. "It seeks to erase the memory of one of the darkest chapters in human history and whitewash the crimes of the Nazi regime."
Ethan called for a return to civility and dialogue on campus. He urged protesters to engage in respectful discussions and to avoid resorting to violence or intimidation.
"We need to create a space where all voices can be heard," Ethan said. "We need to foster an environment of inclusion and understanding, not hatred and division."
Ethan's courage and willingness to speak out have earned him praise from many, including Fox News host Sean Hannity, who praised him as an "inspiration" and a "true American hero." Ethan's story serves as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, it is possible to stand up for what is right and to challenge those who seek to spread hate and division.
