Suspended Biden Official to Teach Controversial Israel-Palestine Course at Yale

Robert Malley, currently under FBI investigation, draws criticism and support for his upcoming role at the Ivy League institution.

Robert Malley, the suspended U.S. special envoy for Iran under President Biden, is set to teach a course on the Israel-Palestine conflict at Yale University.
Malley, who is currently under FBI investigation for alleged mishandling of classified documents, has previously advocated for engagement with terrorist groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
The course, titled 'Contending with Israel-Palestine', will involve an in-depth look at the conflict and is designed to foster 'thoughtful, respectful conversations'.
Malley's appointment has drawn criticism due to his ongoing investigation and past controversial views, with some arguing that Yale is showing a lack of viewpoint diversity.
Despite the controversy, some defend Malley's qualifications to teach the course, stating that he is among the most qualified scholars in the world to teach on the Israel-Palestine conflict.
