Tropez Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Quote The head of a university in Iran is reportedly offering scholarships to students in the U.S. who have been expelled for taking part in pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campuses. Mohammad Moazzeni, head of Shiraz University in the southern region of Fars, extended his proposal to those protesting Israel's actions in its war against Hamas, following clashes between demonstrators and law enforcement across America. "Students and even professors who have been expelled or threatened with expulsion can continue their studies at Shiraz University and I think that other universities in Shiraz as well as Fars Province are also prepared [to provide the conditions]," he said, according to Irainian state-owned outlet Press TV. U.S. students have been facing arrest or expulsion following their actions in support of a ceasefire in Gaza and the divestment of their universities from companies which support Israel. The agency added that Moazzeni was "announcing Shiraz University's decision to offer scholarships to students expelled from European and American universities." Shiraz University, which Newsweek has contacted for further comment, was formerly known as Pahlavi University. Established in 1946, it is one of the Islamic republic's most prestigious universities and is listed among its top three research-oriented schools. https://www.newsweek.com/iran-shiraz-protesters-palestinian-1896011 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrier Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 I hope no students who are American citizens take this, willingly making yourself a political pawn in an Iranian/US dispute A recipe for disaster The student's frustrations with their university and the US are of course valid, but sometimes the enemy of your enemy is not you friend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
