Kyrie Irving To Be Suspended for 5 Games, , Apologizes for Antisemitic Posts.
CNN reports that Irving has come under fire for taking to social media to share a video by Alex Jones and a link to a documentary that many have deemed antisemitic.
.
Irving defended his posts, saying he's
"not going to stand down on anything I believe in.".
On Nov.

Such failure to disavow antisemitism when given a clear opportunity to do so is deeply disturbing, is against the values of our organization, and constitutes conduct detrimental to the team, Nets, via statement.
Irving has since apologized for the
content he posted on social media.
To All Jewish families and Communities that are hurt and affected from my post, I am deeply sorry to have caused you pain, and I apologize, Kyrie Irving, via Instagram.
I initially reacted out of emotion to being unjustly labeled Anti-Semitic, instead of focusing on the healing process of my Jewish Brothers and Sisters that were hurt from the hateful remarks made in the Documentary, Kyrie Irving, via Instagram.
I had no intentions to disrespect any Jewish cultural history regarding the Holocaust or perpetuate any hate.
I am learning from this unfortunate event and hope we can find understanding between us all, Kyrie Irving, via Instagram

His statement particularly addressed the student protests unfolding at Columbia University. âSilence is complicity. Even in recent days, weâve seen harassment and calls for violence against Jews. This blatant Anti Semitism is reprehensible and dangerous â and it has absolutely no place on college campuses, or anywhere in our country" (DISPLAY ON SCREEN) read Bidenâs statement. The protesters, camping out on campus, are urging the university to boycott all activities associated with Israel due to the conflict with Hamas and the resulting humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
