MIT has collected $859 million from foreign countries and failed to report most of them to federal authorities. One of MIT’s biggest outside funders was the small Islamic monarchy of Qatar, a known terror supporter that has funneled funds into Al Qaeda and Hamas. Another dubious benefactor is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

- MIT campus was the site of dozens of demonstrations after October 7, where protesters called for “global Intifada” (violence against Jews) and clamored for Palestine “from the river to the sea” (the destruction of Jews in Israel). Over 1,200 people in Israel were raped, tortured, killed and taken hostage by Hamas terrorists – among them at least 40 Americans. Here are some of their stories
- Pro-terror rallies at MIT included chilling genocidal chants such as “One solution: Intifada Revolution,” which calls for the destruction of Israel and its Jewish citizens. Student groups at MIT have also praised the Houthi terrorists in Yemen. This comes after a yearlong campaign of hate in which a display on the Holocaust was repeatedly destroyed by an antisemitic group on campus
- Jewish students at MIT have warned that the level of hate and intimidation they face is reminiscent of Nazi Germany on the eve of the Holocaust and that MIT campus is no longer safe for Jewish students. Jews on campus claimed that pro-terror groups offered “bounties” for identifying them and then flooding them with online threats. MIT, they said, fostered a “national reputation for antisemitism”.
