Oberlin College has suspended a long-controversial professor who called for the elimination of Israel after sexual harassment allegations against him came to light.
The private Ohio liberal arts college just outside of Cleveland has put tenured professor Mohammad Jafar Mahallati on indefinite administrative leave and scrubbed him from the school’s website.
“Professor Mahallati was placed on indefinite administrative leave on November 28,” an Oberlin spokeswoman confirmed to Fox News.
Mahallati taught religion as well as Middle East and North Africa studies and has previously called himself a “professor of peace.”
However, Mahallati is accused of supporting the Palestinian terror group Hamas, giving students credit for writing anti-Israel blogs, and telling his classes in 2016 that “Israel is a colonialist state” and “Israel is an apartheid state.”
Oberlin made the call…
