The London School of Economics (LSE) hosted a book launch titled Understanding Hamas and Why That Matters, despite calls to cancel the event. The book reportedly seeks to reframe perceptions of Hamas, a proscribed terrorist organization in the UK.
Pro-Palestinian protesters gathered outside, facing off against Israeli counter-protesters. Many demonstrators covered their faces and refused to engage when questioned about their support for Hamas.
Should a prestigious university be giving a platform to a book that seeks to ‘understand’ Hamas? Is this a matter of free speech, or does it cross a line?
