The Jerusalem Post reports that the UCU has now banned Jenna Delich from posting on its site.
The internet service provider of Harry’s Place, a popular British blog site which was one of the first to report on the incident, shut down the site on Wednesday.
It followed the advice circulated on the UCU list by Mike Cushman, a research fellow at the London School of Economics, active in the boycott of Israel campaign and one of the organizers of an event in London last month entitled “International resistance to Zionism: In solidarity with 60-plus years of Palestinian resistance to the founding of Israel.”
He told Jenna Delich that he thought Harry’s Place had “potentially libelled” her and advised her to contact the site’s ISP.
Modernity Blog fears this could have a chilling effect on bloggers.
