The NY Daily News reports on the growing protest against lecturers at Columbia University who deny Israel’s right to exist and intimidate Jewish students who think differently. A pro-Israel professor at Columbia says
scores of Jewish students – about one a week – have trooped into his office to complain about bias in the classroom.
“Students tell me they’ve been browbeaten, humiliated and treated disrespectfully for daring to challenge the idea that Israel has no right to exist as a Jewish nation,” he said.
“They say they’ve been told Israeli soldiers routinely rape Palestinian women and commit other atrocities, and that Zionism is racism and the root of all evil.”
The problem is addressed more fully in the film ‘Columbia Unbecoming’ — details here.
