Former US Secretary of States Hillary Clinton slammed the pro-Palestine protests at campuses across the country, suggesting that young demonstrators “don’t know very much” about the history of the Middle East or the US. Appearing on the MSNBC show “Morning Joe” on Thursday, Clinton claimed that she has met several youngsters over the last few months, adding that “I have had many conversations” with them. “They don’t know very much at all about the history of the Middle East, or frankly about history, in many areas of the world, including in our own country.” Clinton then went on to talk about Yasir Arafat, the former leader of the Palestinian Authority, and the Camp David Summit in 2000. She said that young people “don’t know” that the Palestinians would already have their own state if Arafat had agreed to an agreement mediated by her husband President Bill Clinton. Terming his refusal as “one of the great tragedies of history”, she claimed that Arafat “wanted” to sign the deal but was “pretty sure he’d be killed” by Hamas terrorists.
