Is this true? Is it true that the Harvard Law School student government has never voted on any other international issue whatsoever? Not other wars, like Yemen or Ukraine, where American weapons were used? Not wars where the death tolls were 10 or 20 times higher? None?

Today, the Harvard Law School student body (72%) voted to boycott, divest, and sanction Israel. The Harvard Law School student government voted last year to do the same thing. No other international issue has ever been voted on. The Harvard Law School Alliance for Israel blasted the vote as "plainly discriminatory" and singling out the Jewish State. I encourage major law firms like Davis Polk & Wardwell that deal extensively in Israel to no longer hire students who voted in favor of boycotting Israel, as we wouldn't these students to compromise their values in exchange for a career.
