Boycott goes prime-time in Israel

[MHunterB]

Aris as always is posting and supporting nothing he says with sources or facts.

Some people have a conscience.

Yes, some do - but the l'il sherriliar isn't one of 'em!

You cannot force people to.do business with Apartheid Regimes or associate with them, if they choose not to.

So, keep on pretending BDS is not here and not here to stay, Zionist boy.

BDS is only growing stronger and stronger and stronger and will be around until the Apartheid Regime is dismantled.

lol

This is an academic organization, they can freely decide to boycott educational organizations in Israel supporting an Occupation and human rights abuses that violate international law.

Do you desire Freedom of Speech be taken from us?

BDS is the one trying to stifle free speech. That's why all the major universities have stood up against it. This isn't some Islamic Hamas shithole where Muslims get to dictate to people, got it? Ha ha ha.

I look forward to BDS being an outlawed organization in the next six months....INSHALLAH!

No actually, US universities cannot be bullied by BDS, a Nazi like organization with ties to Islamists. And clearly, the universities are standing up to it.

Now repeat after me...

Long Live The USA!

In the end, the ASA is the biggest loser, and this outcome will not be lost on other associations. For its efforts, the ASA is now publicly mocked, ridiculed and condemned, even by some of its own members and past presidents, as well as by major scholars and numerous university presidents. Even those who do not discern anti-Semitism in the ASA resolution nevertheless perceive a violation of academic freedom.

The American Association of University Professors announced that the boycott would violate the academic freedom “not only of Israeli scholars but also of American scholars who might be pressured to comply with it.” More importantly, perhaps, the ASA has now lost any scholarly reputation that it might previously have had and is now seen as a largely political institution.

Four universities have already terminated their institutional memberships in the ASA. Penn State Harrisburg was the first to cut its formal ties, followed by Brandeis University, Indiana University at Bloomington, and Kenyon College. These four institutions should be honored for their leadership.

In short order, over sixty universities have issued strong statements rejecting the ASA’s actions. Professor William A. Jacobson compiled this list of institutions that have denounced the ASA boycott:

American University (D.C.)
Birmingham Southern College
Boston University
Bowdon College
Brandeis University
Brooklyn College, CUNY
Brown University
Case Western Reserve University
Cornell University
Dickinson College
Duke University
Florida International University
Fordham University

3. Other Universities May (and Should) Cut Ties

More universities may, and should, cut their institutional memberships with ASA. As former Harvard University President Lawrence Summers has cogently argued, “My hope would be that responsible university leaders will become very reluctant to see their university’s funds used to finance faculty membership and faculty travel to an association that is showing itself not to be a scholarly association but really more of a political tool.”

The American Studies Association's BDS Resolution | The Louis D. Brandeis Center Blog

And here's the kicker:

Going to court

The ASA may be held accountable in other ways too. Its resolution has, to say the least, pushed the legal envelope with respect to anti-boycott laws. Several groups, including the Louis D. Brandeis Center, are contemplating taking legal action against the association. Anti-Israel boycotts may violate federal anti-boycott law, as well as the laws of some states, such as Section 296(13) of New York’s Human Rights’ Law, and localities. The ASA, and other institutions that adopt such boycott resolutions, should not be surprised to find themselves in court.

In addition, the BDS resolution may jeopardize the ASA’s tax-exempt status with the Internal Revenue Service, since it is arguably a political activity outside of the ASA’s mission. The ASA is on notice that its tax-exempt status may soon be challenged.

Update: Georgetown University has informed us that they do not have an institutional membership in the ASA and that they have issued a statement criticizing the ASA’s action. We have heard from Columbia University faculty that both Columbia and Barnard have also issued statements criticizing the ASA’s resolution.

You had us at Sherri-filth. She is a shameless mongrel.

 

[aris2chat]

Have you considered any comprehensive reading from 1920.. All the immigrants to Palestine were Bolsheviks.

Where is the documentation for this claim?

Sharoona pulls facts out of heranus. It's one of Jupiter's moons. LOL

propaganda sites try to make all jew escaping Russia as marxists or bolsheviks.
Jews have come from throughout the middle east, spain, turkey, africa, even china.

More about the ASA Boycott


"As the text of the resolution and the council's*explanation make clear, this is not a boycott of individual Israeli academics. It is much more limited, proscribing what in diplomatic terms would be called high-level discussions: the association will not have "formal collaborations with Israeli academic institutions," none of which has taken an official stand against the occupation of Palestine. American academics observing the boycott will not accept invitations from Israeli universities. If Israeli academics are invited to speak here, it is on the condition that their travel not be supported by Israeli government funds. The boycott imposes no further restriction on communication with individual Israeli faculty or on the dissemination of their scholarship, so the cries of destroying the flow of ideas and assailing academic freedom seem overblown. Supporters of the boycott will be quick to point out that the obstacles imposed upon Israeli faculty pale in comparison to those faced by their Palestinian counterparts.

The attempt to target institutions rather than individuals is, as Judith Butler*notes, consistent with the BDS movement....."

[MHunterB]

The big problem with Zionists here is you want to define Jesus, when He does that for Himself in The Bible.

And the pious l'il pustule has a problem acknowledging that Zionists are human beings, created in GOD's Image. And that Jesus loves Zionists, too : ))

Only in the minds of Zionists.

As we can see there is a big movement banning the ASA from American universities and many more are jumping on board. Looks like they've recognized BDS for what it is.

Jihad Sherri is going up shit river without any paddles.

It's only in the mind of Zionists that all those American universities are rejecting and banning ASA ??

Interesting

 

[Roudy]

I gotta tell you, the more I look at that list, the more impressed I am. Tufts, UPENN, university of Chicago, etc. these are all top notch universities!

If so many of the elite colleges have come out at once against the BDS this does not bode well for them at all.

This is a pretty comprehensive list of schools and academic organizations involved. I am pleased to see my own, my husband's and our son's alma maters are all on the list : ))

If yours isn't - I suggest you write to them and ask them to go AGAINST the ASA's boycott.

This thing is going to snowball very fast, I would say most American universities will be on the anti BDS bandwagon soon. M BDS is DOOOMED!

Fighting BDS – Get Ready for Israel Apartheid Week
January 23, 2014 15:43 by Alex Margolin

Everything you need to know about fighting BDS and the assault on Israel’s legitimacy.

Today’s Top BDS Stories:

Capture.JPG - BDS, War on Want1. Preparations are well underway for Israel Apartheid Week 2014, taking place at a U.S. or UK campus near you at the end of February to the beginning of January. Other parts of Europe schedule their “week” later, keeping it going for most of March.

2. Even worse than academic boycott? Germany reportedly conditions research grants to high-tech companies on assurance that funds will not reach beyond the Green Line.

The German decision represents a significant escalation in European measures against the settlements. While the Horizon 2020 scientific cooperation agreement, which Israel signed with the European Union a few weeks ago, prohibited EU funding for academic research conducted in the settlements, Berlin has now extended the funding ban to private companies located over the Green Line. Moreover, the boycott against the settlements has now spread from EU institutions in Brussels to individual EU members.

3. Anti-Zionist blog Mondoweiss published an email from Oxfam UK CEO Mark Goldring stating that the organization is “now engaged in a dialogue” with Scarlett Johansson over her affiliation with SodaStream. Despite intense bullying from across the BDS movement, Johansson has shown no sign of surrender.

Other BDS-Related Content:

* Morocco buys Israeli drones. While Europe is increasing boycott pressure on Israel, Arab countries like Morocco seem to be warming up to the Jewish state.

* Op-ed in the New Haven Register notes that anti-Israel boycotts hurt Palestians as well as Israelis.

When asked about the merits of an academic boycott of Israel, the Israeli Arab female valedictorian of Israel’s top medical school — Dr. Mais Ali Saleh — rejected the idea as ineffectual. Instead, she urged those interested in advancing the cause of peace in the Middle East to pressure Arab countries to adopt Israel’s level of academic freedom.

* Irish4Israel has launched a new website loaded with information you can use in the fight against BDS and assorted boycotts.

 

[MHunterB]

Many of the 'Ivies' and the 'Seven Sisters' are on that list as well - along with 'non-Ivy' schools which have the highest standards, like MIT

I gotta tell you, the more you post and show your ignorance, the more you give me to laugh about.

I just LOVE all these BDS successes.
