They published a statement in a school newsletter that said “Israel bears full responsibility for this tremendous loss of life”. “This regime of state-sanctioned violence created the conditions that made resistance necessary, and I will not condemn Palestinian resistance.” A prominent law South Carolina law firm says it has rescinded Workman’s job offer due to the comments.
