Students urge University of California to dismiss findings of widespread anti-Semitism on campuses
Campus Reform ^

Posted on 08/10/2012 1:41:55 PM PDT by oliverdarcy

A report alleging systematic anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism on University of California (UC) campuses has come under fire from a group of students and faculty who say the university ought to disregard its findings.

The study, commissioned by UC President Mark Yudof and executed by his Advisory Council found that, among other things, “the use of the swastika drawn next to or integrated with, the Jewish Star of David is commonplace” on campus.

A report found that “the use of the swastika drawn next to or integrated with, the Jewish Star of David is commonplace" on UC campuses.

“Jewish students are confronting significant and difficult climate issues as a result of activities on campus which focus specifically on Israel, its right to exist and its treatment of Palestinians,” wrote the authors of the Jewish Campus Climate Report, which was published on July 9th by the on Campus Climate, Culture, and Inclusion advisory council.

Who to root for? Jews who hate my extreme right wing views or Muslims and their sympathizers who hate my extreme right wing views.

I’d side with free speech, but both sides would censor my answer.....

Howdy again, Ollie.

What seems to have caused you to excerpt this campus blog “writing”?

You seem to have omitted the fact that you claim to be the author of this mess.

Have you excerpted it in order to get yourself some blog hits, Ollie?

Why else would you excerpt your own material?

Have you any thoughts on this, Ollie?

Has the “new math” in schools bred a new science, where research results are ignored if it is not the conclusion you want?

Once again, political correctness trumps reality.

Of course. Such findings make it harder to make UC completely Judenrein.

Go back 30 years and you’ll find Obama was the guy who started these types of petitions and led these rallies with his bullhorn. Does anyone have any doubt which side he’d take in the argument?

When I lived in Israel, during the 2008 voting time, the vote was 78%+ for Palin and whats his name. It was openly discused in Jewish newspapers the fear that Obama would get in and the disaster it would be for America.

Dont think Jews are all the same, that would be a mistake.

Among all the Christian absentee ballots, I could find nobody that would admit voting for Obama, he was seen as a liar and a fraud.

67 years after the Holocaust ended; this crap should NOT be happening.
Any WWII veteran would want to deal with these people with a baseball bat if they were able to.

What has happened with this country?

Well too many Jews over the decades have been in bed with the left wing and now they are reaping the results
There are a some very excellent conservative Jews in the political arena but the rack and file and most of the politicians are lefties

This sounds like a legitimate story.

Is there some FR rule that says writers of news cannot post their own stories?
