University of HaifaUniversity of Haifa – Prof. David Farji, the new Rector, denounces the Ariel cultural boycott as "not legitimate"Haifa University's new rector, Professor David Farji added that it was the lecturers' right not to go to the territories for ideological motives, but that a boycott was not legitimate. "The Ariel college is a wonderful institution responsible for serious studies. There is no doubt as to its legitimacy, regardless of its geographic location," he said.

A Review of the Bash-Israel Pre-Conference organized by Far-Leftist Academics prior to the Prestigious International Geographical Union’s regional conference held in Tel AvivAs happens so often, the ideological opinion offered by Israeli scholars, under the banner of free speech and pluralism, at these conferences was primarily monolithic, anti-Israel, and leftist. If scholars were somehow still able to leave these conferences with a neutral or positive view about Israel, it was in spite of the best efforts of Israel’s academics who organized the pre-conferences, not because of them. ... For Newman, only one voice should be heard in a democratic society, the voice of critique and anti-state hatred. The only ‘beacon of light’ in Israel are the organizations and individuals who compare the country to a fascist state and the only “value” of democracy is the voice of extremism. On the other side democracy is having a “black day” when other organizations use free speech to critique those who critique. For more details and to see the full original article, go here
University of Haifa – Sami Smooha (Department of Sociology) claims the Jewish State of Israel cannot be “both democratic and Jewish”Sami Smooha, who is professor of sociology at the University of Haifa, said that Israel is neither a liberal nor a constitutional democracy, but something special. In the past he has termed Israel an “ethnic democracy,” but he now declined to use any term containing the word “democracy” to describe Israel. He emphasizes that he is a sociologist, not a political philosopher, and as such he maintains that Israel cannot be both democratic and Jewish. ... As an antidote to Israel’s specialness Smooha recommends a special kind of anti-Semitism. Smooha argues that Israel’s Jews don’t want a Jewish and democratic state but rather a Zionist and democratic state, which is somehow worse. A “Zionist” state maintains that it is connected to all the world’s Jews and engages in Zionist “projects,” such as settling Jews in Israel, trying to create an amalgamated Jewish identity out of new immigrants, and consolidating Jewish dominance through law and politics. ... Smooha’s call for an “end to the millet system” is code for repealing legislation that takes into account the Jewish identity of Israeli citizens. ...Smooha’s vision is an Israel without a national or ethnic identity, albeit a state with a lot of Jews—much like Florida. There would be this significant difference: Unlike Florida, in this state a particular ethnic minority does get to be recognized as an official “national minority,” with cultural autonomy and other semi-national rights. ... He wants the Palestinians to be Palestinians and the Jews to be democratic, and essentially he calls on Israel’s Jews to discriminate against themselves. His justification is that the Jews are colonial settlers and therefore don’t really have rights. He did say that he thinks Israel’s Jews have the right to self-determination though not sovereignty. But it is hard to see how Jewish self-determination could find expression if his laundry list of policy recommendations were adopted. For more details and to see the full original article, go here
University of Haifa - Ron Kuzar (Dept of English Literature) Stars at the Conference Demanding the Destruction of IsraelThe University of Haifa event was evidently an initiative once again of the Arab student union. Held in the large Safdia Auditorium on campus with about 30 people in the audience, the “conference” consisted of two anti-Israel Arab speakers and one anti-Israel Jewish speaker. This is pluralism and balance these days in Israeli academia. Kuzar states: “Israeli-Zionist ethnicity is an injurious discriminatory one inside Israel, a thieving and apartheid set of policies towards Palestinians.” Isracampus Update: (Youtube only allows tapes up to 10 minutes so it had to be broken into two sections to post) The video quality in not the best but Kuzar’s words can be clearly heard and it can be clearly seen that it is Kuzar speaking. Anyone with the slightest doubt as to the accuracy of what was cited above is invited to sit through his recorded talk. So what are we to make of the fact that Kuzar falsely denied those very same citations when attributed to him, lying boldfaced to the entire academic staff of the University of Haifa? Kuzar also deliberately posted his (sanitized? fabricated?) alleged “lecture notes” to convey an incorrect representation of what he said in his talk. He lied so many times on the Segel Plus list in the past two weeks that I am not sure I can count all the instances. So just how does Kuzar now propose to explain his behavior? Well, we thought we would help him out a bit with this. We have prepared a list of excuses from which he can choose one, just placing an “X” next to the one that appeals to him most: 1. Kuzar’s dog ate the REAL lecture notes for
his talk. For more details and to see the full original article, go here
University of Haifa - Uri Bar-Joseph (Dept of International Relations) Fabricates "New History"; Discovers that Israel Itself Caused the 1973 Yom Kippur War because it refused to make peace with EgyptIn other words, Israel had two options: to progress with a diplomatic process that guaranteed, already at the start, a peace agreement with Egypt in exchange for the evacuation of all of Sinai, or to enter a war that the Arab side would initiate with the goal of motivating Israel to embark on such a diplomatic process.

University of Haifa - A Covert Look at Dalit Baum (Dept of Women's Studies)Dalit Baum’s specialty is promoting BDS, or Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel as a modern extension of the Arab League Boycott. As a radical member of the Coalition of Women for Peace, an NGO set up mostly by lesbian academics in support of the Arabs getting whatever they want from Israel, Dalit Baum has further carved out a niche for herself in the subgroup titled Who Profits From the Occupation? You want to know who profits from the “Occupation”? Dalit Baum profits, that’s who. Baum was the founder of the radical group Black Laundry that is composed of radical lesbians who support the misogynist Arabs in their quest to dismantle the Jewish state.

University of Haifa – Avraham Oz (Dept of Theater) smears Israel Science Adviser Professor Israel HanokugloTo represent this as "racism" or "racialism" is the height of absurdity. Similar genetic research has been used to show that in some rural English regions the population is descendent from Flemish migrants. In fact, the disease in question is also common among Jews who emigrated from Syria. The Left has launched a libel campaign against Hanokuglo. In the message below is a letter being circulated by one Abraham Oz, a Theater lecturer at the University of Haifa and a far-leftist. The message speaks for itself, and will -- in all probability -- form the basis of a libel suit against Abraham Oz by Dr. Hanokuglo. For more details and to see the full original article, go here
The IDF shows discrimination: ignores the insubordination of 350 academic “rabbis” and the anti-Israel ALEF forum at Haifa UniversityThe IDF also has a hesder (arrangement) with the University of Haifa, where some 40 staff members signed a petition calling for insubordination. At that university, senior officers from the National Security College study for a master's degree (Ilan Pappe also taught in that program). In addition, naval cadets and officers from Military Intelligence study there for bachelor's degrees. And lo and behold, in the university's central computer, in a file entitled "war criminals," a group called Aleph published photographs of dozens of officers and by doing so blacklisted them. (The list includes Gabi Ashkenazi, Yohanan Locker, Yigal Slovik, Yoav Mordechai, Avi Blot, Yuval Halamish, Herzi Halevi and Gur Rosenblatt, as well as former foreign minister Tzipi Livni.)

University of Haifa - Ron Kuzar (Dept of English) calls for world boycott against Bar Ilan University"I do find some similarities between South-Africa's apartheid and Israel's conduct in the occupied territories...The boycott against Bar-Ilan University is fully justified since this university actively supports a college which is part of the settlement apparatus."

University of Haifa – Haggai Kupermintz remains unrepentant in his participation in a blood libelRecently University of Haifa lecturer in "peace education," Haggai Kupermintz, was taken to task for never having apologized for being one of the signatories on a petition from a few years ago containing a blood libel. The petition accused Israel of planning to conduct genocidal atrocities the moment the Allied invasion of Iraq was to begin. The war and came went and no Israeli genocide against Arabs. Kupermintz never retracted or apologized for his role in this. The petition was published on the pro-jihad Aljazeera and on many other anti-Semitic web sites. When challenged about this on the "Segel-Plus" chat list of University of Haifa faculty members, Kupermintz posted this response: RE: [Segel-plus] Fw: Conceits of the Academic
Far Left Ah, but you got it all wrong, Stevie! In fact, word got out to the Bush administration that the infamous leftist, Marxist, Antisematic (sic), Noe-Nazi (sic), Anachist (sic), Self-hating Jewboy Mafia of the Haifa branch of Bir Zeit university is behind the petition. As if Saddam wasn't enough... He immediately and personally gave orders to halt the cleansing operation. We understand your frustration that we saved our beloved Palestinian people, but at least give us credit for our achievement. Surly, you know what we eldres (sic) can accomplish. Don't under estimate us!
A Little Problem of Consistency at the University of HaifaA university in Norway is calling for worldwide boycotts of Israel. Meanwhile the president and the rector of the University of Haifa have taken to the airwaves to denounce that initiative. See this: http://newmedia-eng.haifa.ac.il/?p=1415 The only problem? They have done nothing about the members of the faculty at the University of Haifa who are themselves calling for a worldwide boycott of Israel! Prof. Daphna Carmeli, Prof. Yoram Carmeli, and Prof. Vered Kraus are listed here. These University of Haifa leftist anti-Zionists were calling for such a boycott against Israel and against Israeli universities even before the recent call for such a boycott issued by anti-Israel extremist Neve Gordon from Ben Gurion University. Want to let the heads of the University know what you think of this “inconsistency”?

University of Haifa – Student Union Head claims that Haifa U management turns a blind eye to far-leftist indoctrinationThe Haifa University Student Union has distributed a calendar diary containing an advertisement calling readers to know who the “anti-Israeli lecturers” are, in Haifa U. and in other academic institutions throughout Israel. The advertisement contains the web address of IsraCampus – a website devoted to exposing lecturers who are employed in Israeli universities, yet openly agitate against the state of Israel. ... The head of the Haifa University Student Union, Felix Kuritni, said that he believes that the decision to print the advertisement was justified. “Students who study here need to know who their lecturers are and if there are lecturers who oppose the State of Israel it is important to publish their names. ... Unfortunately the campus management turns a blind eye and continues to allow all kinds of political cells like Hadash and Balad to hold conventions on campus.” For more details and to see the full original article, go here
University of Haifa – YNet quotes University and Student Union Heads defending IsraCampus.Org.il’s right to publish ad that denounces Anti-Israel Lecturers in Student Union daily plannerStudents at Haifa University are outraged over the contents of an ad included in a daily planner distributed by the Student Union at the beginning of the academic year. The ad urges students to become aware of "anti-Israel lecturers" from universities across the country, including the Haifa institute. A complaint was sent to University President Professor Aaron Ben Ze'ev pointing to incitement. … Chairman Felix Koritney commented, "It's an advertisement bought and published in the planner as by other advertisers. We went over the content and it is fine by us. It informs the students, in the way other websites inform of corruption and ethics violations…Students should know who they take classes with. We love the State of Israel and support it and see no wrong with the ad." Haifa University issued a statement reading, "In accordance with its policy and the student rights law, the University of Haifa allows freedom of speech on campus, even when it opposes the contents of opinions, so long as no State laws were violated."

University of Haifa - Israel hater Micah Leshem (Dept of Psychology), cheers on Neve Gordon's call for a Boycott against Israeli "apartheid"There is no consensus on political issues, theories abound, and Gordon, as a political scientist, has one which he propounds. Quite possibly his LAT article reflects his personal views too, but in this particular case there is a grey area between his personal views and his professional analyses, and that is what lends credence to his analysis and probably irks the rightists no end. It is both his academic and personal freedom that irks them, ie his freedom to express views they loath. For more details and to see the full original article, go here
University of Haifa – Micah Leshem (Dept of Psychology) Supports Gordon's Call for Worldwide boycott of IsraelOn Thursday, August 20 the LA Times published an op-ed in which Ben Gurion University Professor Neve Gordon wrote that the question that kept him up at night, both as a parent and as an Israeli citizen, was how to ensure that his two children as well as the children of his Palestinian neighbors do not grow up in an apartheid regime. He concluded that the only thing that the only workable solution would be "massive international pressure." (1) Following the publication of the article there has been such a vehement and aggressive attack against Gordon in Israel (2), that we believe "massive international pressure" will be needed to keep him from being fired from his job. We are protecting here more than one person and one job. Help us protect the ability to talk openly about the Israeli occupation and about nonviolent options to address it, such a boycott, divestment, and sanctions.

University of Haifa – A.B. Yehoshua can’t seem to tell the difference between reality and the plot of one of his storiesI have long felt that many of the finest creative minds in the literary world, whether poets, dramatists, or novelists, must be taken cum grano when they see fit to pronounce on political issues. Not all, of course, but perhaps most. It is as if they are occupationally prone to conceiving the political arena as part of an aesthetic framework, susceptible to snug resolutions, rather than the messy and often insoluble dynamic that it is. They tend to confuse, in the words of E.M. Forster [8], plot with story … But Yehoshua represents a different case in point. He is not a foreigner but an Israeli writer whose ancestry, political engagement, and proximity to actual events should, one might assume, have freed him from the web of fantasy in which the literary mind is so easily snared and served to alert him to the structure of reality. During one of our supper conversations in the university refectory, the subject turned to Israel’s impending disengagement from the Gaza Strip. Yehoshua, whose sympathies are robustly on the left and who tends to identify with those whom he regards as underdogs, a.k.a. the Palestinians, could not contain his enthusiasm for the process, making light of my skepticism. The great man knew. All would be well. It had to be. The Palestinians would recognize Israel’s readiness to endure sacrifices, would surely be grateful for the greenhouses and infrastructure left behind to promote their nascent economy, and would respond in good faith to this new and impressive initiative.

“Affirmative Action” at the University of Haifa: Supervisor of the Fabrication of the Tantora Massacre Thesis promoted to Full ProfessorThe University of Haifa just decided to promote Prof. Kais Firro to the rank of full professor, despite the fact that Firro has very few academic publications to his record. Firro is best known for having been the formal thesis advisor to the anti-Israel extremist Teddy Katz, in which the thesis fabricated an imaginary “massacre” of Arabs in the village of Tantora by the Alexandroni battalion of the Palmach during Israel’s War of Independence. Katz later admitted in court that the allegation was a fabrication. For details, see this: http://weeklystandard.com/check.asp?idArticle=99&r=jjldm While the malicious Ilan Pappe, back then on the faculty of the University of Haifa in political science, has generally been assumed to be the driving force behind the fabrication, Kais Firro officially supervised and approved the thesis and gave it a grade of 97. The University later revoked Katz’ degree and refused to recognize the thesis. For more details and to see the full original article, go here
Why does University of Haifa sociologist Sammy Smooha cheer for Israel's enemies? It's not just that Smooha embraces anti-Israel Arab elements and supports them in their attacks on Israel's existence. It's that he feels that Israel as a Jewish state is nothing more than an "ethnic democracy" for Jews, by which he means something BAD. He has built his career on claims that Oriental or Sephardic Jews are victims of discrimination in Israel. He has demonstrated little interest in the plight of Oriental Jews being bombed and rocketed by Palestinians in Sderot and Netivot in Israel’s south.. … the origins of the Smoohas in Israel's sociology world as "dedicated to advancing their ideology that they have come to focus far more on rewriting Israel's history than on examining the issues of the greatest concern to Israeli society today. Their proclivity for myth-smashing, coupled with their commitment to imported theoretical models preclude any serious discussion of the unique aspects of Israeli life and cause them to downplay, or even distort, historical facts. These problems are so acute that they call into question the credibility of sociological research in Israel. For more details and to see the full original article, go here

Haifa University – Gideon Sa’ar taking Haifa University to the Council for Higher Education over Salah’s lectureEducation Minister Gideon Sa'ar is planning a debate at the Council for Higher Education over Sheikh Raed Salah's lecture at Haifa University on Wednesday.

University of Haifa - As'ad Ghanem (Dept of Political Science) declares founding of the State of Israel “a colonial action”; denies that Israel is a democracyThe only man in Israel deemed worthy of writing it is Dr. As'ad Ghanem, who by chance or not, was also the main drafter of a document entitled "The Future Vision of the Palestinian Arabs in Israel." This document includes these civic pearls: "Israel is the outcome of a colonialist action which was initiated by the Jewish-Zionist elites ... [it] was established by colonial states ... it continues conflicting with its neighbors incessantly ... and implementing a colonialist policy ... Israel cannot be defined as a democratic state. It can be defined as an ethnocratic state ... the state must acknowledge responsibility for the Nakba ... [it] should recognize the Palestinian Arabs as an indigenous national group that has a right to choose its representatives directly." For more details and to see the full original article, go here

University of Hafia - Dr. Dalit Baum (Dept of Women's Studies) and the Academic Lesbians for JihadBack in Israel these days, Baum is teaching (if that is the right word) at the "Community School for Women," a lesbian feminist "school" she helped found. Baum, a loudly self-proclaimed lesbian, has managed to connect her anti-Israel animus to support for the greatest homophobes and persecutors of homosexuals in the world, the Arab Islamofascists and the Muslim states. There homosexuality is often a capital offense. She is a leading member of a group calling itself "QUIT," which stands for "Queers Undermining Israeli Terrorism," a homosexual anti-Israel anarchist/Marxist group set up to demonize Jews and Israelis while excusing Arab homophobia and persecution of homosexuals. Dalit Baum embraces and supports the very same people who would kill her for being gay!! Perhaps that explains why she has never ventured into any Muslim country to preach her ideas.

University of Haifa - Showtuners on Hitler in Springtime?University of Haifa holding a conference entitled, "Queer Experiences during the Third Reich and the Holocaust." It is sponsored by the "Bucerius Institute for Research of Contemporary German History and Society" at the University of Haifa. The point of most of the speakers is evidently to compare Nazi treatment of homosexuals to the Nazi genocide against Jews. Never mind that most of those "homosexuals" arrested and killed by the Nazis were in fact communists whose arrest as "homosexuals" was designed to humiliate them. The speakers include a mix of Israelis and Germans.

University of Haifa - Avraham Oz (Dept of Comparative Literature) Defends A Pal TerroristSamieh is also active in the Abna al Balad movement and was among the organizers of last year's Haifa conference on the Right of Return and a secular democratic state. Last December he helped organize public mourning rallies and non-violent protests against the Israeli offensive in Gaza. In January 2009, Samieh was warned by the Security Services that a way will be found to punish him for this civil and political activity. The opportunity presented itself on February 10th, general election day in Israel. A group of extreme rightist fanatics announced their intention to serve as official monitors of the voting process in Um al Fahm, second largest Arab city in Israel. Samieh, a native of this town, joined residents in a protest demonstration. He was arrested along with a fellow-resident minutes after the event began.
