Open letter criticizes anti-boycott bills as threat to public debate

Corey Robin*and*Henry Farrell*are two scholars who have opposing views on the academic boycott of Israel. *But when it comes to the*anti-boycott bills being debated in the New York legislature, which would cut off state aid to academic groups that support the boycott, they’re united in opposition.

Robin, a political science professor at Brooklyn College, and Farrell, a political science professor at George Washington University, have issued an open letter criticizing the New York bill–and its counterpart in Maryland–as threatening “the ability of scholars and scholarly associations*to say controversial things in public debate.” *The letter*was published on the Crooked Timber blog.

The Bill was passed, get over it! BDS was seen as what it is, a Nazi like anti freedom organization that uses bullying tactics to achieve it's goals. Kiss the BDS in the US goodbye!

It is a short hop skip and a jump from support of boycott
programs to legalization of policies of racism and segregation.

In the 60s----the "right" to live in neighborhoods with
demographics of one's choice was a big issue in the
nazi town of my childhood.

Those people who support boycotts ----should consider all
the possibilities. How about this one.......a directory listing
all businesses having any association with any country which
defines itself as "islamic"----

When I was a kid-----there was a rumour going on that
"progresso" food products were "MAFIA" (oil. tomato
sauce etc) How about a campaign to uncover anything
related to "mafia" and boycott thereof. The big time
---large can PIZZA SAUCE people were "progresso"----
so lets boycott the local mom and pop pizza shop------
great idea. Lets boycott TOMATOs

The New York Bill Remains A Bill That Has Not Been Passed Into law.


Bill targeting academic groups that boycott Israel halted in New York Assembly

Over the weekend and yesterday,*many activists calledin to various Assemblymembers to express opposition to the bill. *And as the*Albany Times Union‘s Casey Seiler reports, a group that is normally an ally of the powerful Assembly Speaker who authored the bill, Sheldon Silver, expressed strong opposition to it. *The New York State United Teachers union issued a statement saying that the bill “violates the principles of academic freedom, the First Amendment protection of speech and protection of association.” The*Professional Staff Congress, the union for City University of New York faculty, opposed the bill, and so did groups like Jewish Voice for Peace, the Center for Constitutional Rights and the National Lawyers Guild.

About*seventy-five members of the Columbia University faculty*also joined the pile-on against the bill. *And*theNew York Times*published an editorial blasting the legislation. *”The New York bill is an ill-considered response to the American Studies Association resolution and would trample on academic freedoms and chill free speech and dissent,” the Times stated. *”Academics are rightly concerned that it will impose a political test on faculty members seeking university support for research meetings and travel.”

BDS is a response to Israeli Apartheid and Occupation, a response to racial discrimination.

You have your facts all wrong

Maryland is also submitting a bill like the one in NY. Other states will follow suit.

 

[SherriMunnerlyn]

The publicity and debates generated by such unconstitutional bills shall only generate litigation and publicly bring into the MSM ALL the abuses of Occupation.

Whatever happens with any particular proposed bill, BDS. wins.

really? the court found it unconstitutional?

didn't think so.

you'll just have to get over it.

Jihad Sherri:

Whatever happens with any particular proposed bill, BDS. wins....blah blah blah...rubbish...crap....

 

[SherriMunnerlyn]

To start with, no laws have yet been enacted for any court to have a need to find such laws unconstitutional.

But certainly what I have been reading are claims that the bill as proposed in NY raises constitutional issues.

This likely explains why it got bogged down in the Assembly.

No laws have been passed to hinder lawful boycotts.

‘Haaretz’ analyst says surging BDS movement may be contributing to falling shekel

Rafi Gozlan, the chief economist at*Leader Capital Markets,*one of Israel’s top investment banks, is speculating that the threat of boycott and sanctions against Israel, as well as*the controversy surrounding Scarlett Johansson’s global ambassadorship for SodaStream, could have contributed to the weakening of the shekel.

There’s no doubt about it, we’re moving to another level of public discourse when*Haaretz*reports on the*dollar reaching the highest rate against shekel in a month*with a headline that reads*Boycott worries may be undermining Israeli currency, economists say. The article included the*above screenshot of SodaStream’s Johansson promotional with the caption:*“Indirectly, she’s influencing the shekel, analysts say.”

Bill targeting academic groups that boycott Israel halted in New York Assembly

Activists said that Assemblywoman Deborah Glick, the chair of the Higher Education Committee, announced that the anti-boycott bill was taken off the agenda for discussion yesterday. Glick also said that the legislation will be reworked, so it could come back in a different form.

Zionists simply must face this reality.

In fact----all kinds of --boycotts and policies involving discrimination
against individuals based on alliances and ideologies HAVE been
challenged and found illegal------isa-repecting scum will have to face
this reality but so far have not-----the filth of the isa-respect creed
have actually DEMANDED special rights not accorded other groups.

The good news is that the isa-respecting scum have been employing
the use of BOYCOTT upon israel since 1948 and the technique has
merely bitten the dogs in their stinking asses. There are wealthy
Syrian and Lebanese chrisians in my town------who WON----their
wealth by spitting in the face of the isa-respecting "god" which
mandated boycott of Israeli products SINCE 1948. I would be
very surprised if muslims in my town are not tearing the "soda stream"
gadgets off the shelves in the "gadget stores"----I will
check-----I know the specific jewish gadget store they favor

Identify BDS ACTIONS US courts have found unlawful.

I am aware of none.

""""Identify BDS ACTIONS US courts have found unlawful.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Typical ploy of the genocidal pigs and dogs-----the LIBEL----
it invents a libel-----in this case-----the libel is small----
it accuses me of claiming that BDS actions have been
considered "unlawful" A claim I never made----but REALITY
never stands on the way of isa-respecting filth----in order to
establish their filth-------they simply REPEAT IT ---and REPEAT
IT----and REPEAT IT--------for those who read the bible----
king solomon descrbes such persons as "dogs returning to their own
vomit"


An interesting fact about the BDS dogs and pigs----they are
DESPERATE to present their idiocy as a NEW PROGRAM----
in fact it has been in effect since 1948-----its problem is that
it actually never did much except cause problems for the pigs
and dogs. The 'isa-respecting 'logic' " is-----present something
---ANYTHING that seems new------and some idiotis will fall for it-----
and they are right-----idiots have been falling for their filth for
more than 1000 years--------falling and falling and piling up
dead bodies in the gutters in the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS

for the record----the Glorious Age of ISA-RESPECTING
Conquest-------owes its "success" to STARVATION SIEGE---
economic boycott is nothing more than an attempt to
RECAPTURE THAT GLORY-----the very same glory that left
more than a million EMACIATED DEAD BIAFRAN INFANTS
DEAD IN THE DUST -----for the glory of ISAAAAAAA

No one should be surprised------it is the only technique they
do "well"
