Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach has sent a letter to anti-Israel demonstrators and to administrators at the University of Kansas where the demonstrator are protesting, arguing their demands are against the law.

"As is often the case with uninformed, petulant loudmouths, (the protesters) have not done their research," Kobach, a Republican, says in his letter to university Chancellor Doug Girod and members of the Kansas Board of Regents. “And their views are reprehensible. I trust that you will not honor them.”

Kobach added “I encourage you to enforce all applicable university rules and regulations so that the educational mission of the university is not disrupted. The taxpayers of Kansas expect and deserve the very best from KU.”

Protesters have posted up at the front door of Girod’s office, chanting for him to disclose and divest any financial connections with Israel. 

The protesters occupied the Fraser Hall campus building for 17-hours on Wednesday.
