AhlulBayt News Agency: The University of Michigan has reportedly employed covert special patrols to monitor student groups advocating for an end to Israel’s war on Gaza, according to The Guardian.
The United States portrays itself as a champion of human rights and free expression, yet its allies in West Asia remain monarchies.
The Israeli military campaign in Gaza, which began in October 2023, has resulted in widespread devastation, sparking student-led protests across American universities against Washington’s support for Israel.
Students have repeatedly spotted undercover operatives and directly confronted them. In one bizarre incident caught on video, a man shadowing a student falsely accused them of attempted robbery, while pretending to have disabilities.
The anti-Israeli movement among American students has gained nationwide momentum, prompting U.S. authorities to resort to surveillance of university activists. The monitoring efforts appear to be an attempt to suppress civil protests against Washington’s financial and political backing of Israel.
