Turga Ganapathy

Turga Ganapathy participated in an anti-Israel event at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in May 2024, during Israel's war against Hamas terrorists.

At the event, Ganapathy held a sign that said: "MY FAMILY SURVIVED / CARPET BOMBINGS / IN BRITISH MALAYA / GENOCIDAL WARFARE THAT / THE USA BORROWED & USED / IN VIETNAM & CAMBODIA / I SAY NEVER AGAIN / FOR ANYONE / FREE PALESTINE."

The phrase “Never Again” is deployed as a general declaration against genocide, invoking the Nazis’ war of extermination against the Jews.

As of May 2025, Turga Ganapathy's LinkedIn profile said Ganapathy was studying at MIT for a doctorate in mechanical engineering, slated to graduate in 2025.

The profilee's activism occurred during Israel’s war against Hamas, which Israel launched after the October 7, 2023, terror attacks when Hamas murdered nearly 1,200 Israelis, injured thousands and kidnapped hundreds.
