Florida Disbands Pro-Palestine Student Group, Hints at Felony Charges

A Florida Governor Ron DeSantis ally overseeing the state's university system has ordered schools to disband their chapters of a pro-Palestinian group, alleging it supports Hamas and hinting at felony charges. 

Florida's state university system chancellor Ray Rodrigues issued a memo on Tuesday saying that, after speaking with DeSantis, he was ordering any chapters of the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) group at state universities to be deactivated.

Rodrigues alleges that the National SJP supported Hamas' initial attacks on Israel by offering a toolkit to students that linked the militant operation to "the resistance" around the world. Rodrigues also raises the specter of a Florida law that makes it a felony to "knowingly provide material support . . . to a designated foreign terrorist organization."
