It’s mostly a foreign language grant. As the letter says, a small fraction of the students in the program are actually enrolled in relevant foreign language courses. Maybe if Duke-UNC does not want this kind of heat, they should not apply for this particular grant, or, they should make sure they’re fulfilling the explicit terms.
Oh, really? That makes sense to you? The majority view in Gaza is that there should be a secular democracy? You voted for Islamist fundamentalists. You’re ruled by autocrats. Tell you what: establish a democracy is Gaza first. Overthrow Hamas. Take Islam as a state religion out of your constitution. Treat women equally. Stop killing gay people. Then we can talk about “secular democracy.”
I know how upset you guys get when anyone suggests that Israelis are actual human beings.
This was entertaining fiction. You have the narrowest perspective of anyone. As conspiracy theorist often do.
So wonderful that BDSers get off on triggering a community of Holocaust survivors.
I assure you that your victory will be short-lived. At the end of the day, Americans are decent people, and they recognize that Israel, like most societies, has its imperfections, but it’s paradise compared to the rest of the region, including from the standpoints of minority rights and human rights.
And I assure you that this is far more about Trump than it is about BDS, and once Trump goes, so will moments like this. So congrats. You are, as I’ve always says, Trump’s beat friends and beneficiaries.
Are corporations people? Sounds like you believe that.
HRes 246 does nothing other than indicate opposition to the BDS movement. It’s not unconstitutional for Congress to give their opinion, Tlaib’s peculiar interpretation of the Constitution notwithstanding.
I don’t see the word Israel in there. I also haven’t seen anyone propose that Americans do not have a right to boycott. I’ve seen legislation that would restrict states from contracting with entities that boycott Israel, but no, not a single piece of legislation restricting Americans from boycotting whatever they want to boycott.
I see career antisemite YoniFalic is still posting antisemitic things here. When will Annie enforce the rules and ban him? Twitter did.
Zogby was always a smart guy. Maybe he’ll read these comments and realize that the Palestinians have no greater enemy than their leftist Western supporters, who would much prefer that they continue to suffer.
