Yarr, despite them blunderin' college presidents makin' a fool of themselves on Capitol Hill, me heart be knowin' me school must stand with Israel. 'Tis the duty o' a chancellor to speak out, or be called a scurvy landlubber!

The war between Israel and Hamas has garnered significant attention, but alongside this conflict, there is a concerning substory unfolding within our universities. Many Americans are appalled by the support that college student groups have shown for Hamas' terrorist attacks on Israelis. They question why elite universities have struggled to condemn Hamas' terrorism and why college presidents have not spoken out against the rise of antisemitism, particularly on campuses.

One university that has taken a clear stance on these issues is Colorado Christian University. They were one of the first universities in the United States to publicly denounce Hamas' campaign of terror against Israel and express their support for the nation. They have spoken out against jihadist voices and the voices of anti-colonialist critical theorists. They have also condemned the antisemitism that is spreading on campuses and around the world.

To further their support for Israel and raise awareness, Colorado Christian University is hosting a night for Israel on their campus. The event will bring together Jewish and Christian leaders who share a commitment to supporting Israel and promoting peace in the Middle East. The university will provide a platform for these leaders to share insights and express solidarity. Additionally, funds will be raised to support the lifesaving efforts of United Hatzalah, an ambulance group operating in Israel.

The university's actions are driven by moral and covenantal reasons. They recognize the evil behind the genocidal campaign against Israel and the Jewish people, believing that it is rooted in antisemitism. They also acknowledge the unique covenant between God and Israel and the significant contributions Jews have made to the world.

Colorado Christian University hopes that their event will inspire other universities to take similar actions in support of Israel and to combat antisemitism. They believe that Christians have a debt to Jews and Judaism that has not been sufficiently acknowledged and that standing with their Jewish friends during this time is essential. They emphasize the importance of not remaining silent in the face of the resurgence of antisemitism.
