Ben Gurion University
Ben Gurion Univeristy – BGU Faculty Members oppose
settling Israel by Jews WITHIN the 1967 Borders
According to YNET (http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-4083778,00.html
[in Hebrew]), the tenured leftists are irate because an NGO calling
itself "Ayalim" has been approaching students and asking to speak in
classrooms at the University about their initiative to set up rural
communities in the Galilee and the Negev designed for students. The
tenured Left is upset that Ayalim people are not recruiting Arabs to
move to these settlements. Led by Dr. Hamutal Tzamir, who teaches
Hebrew literature, and who as far as we know has no Arab neighbors,
these "academics" are screaming against the "racism" in the
initiative. Wouldn't it simpler if Tzamir and her friends simply set
up their own organization calling itself Jews Against Jews?

BGU Faculty Members oppose settling Israel
by Jews WITHIN the 1967 Borders
Well, you will be happy to hear that a group of
leftist faculty members at Ben Gurion University has now organized
to oppose the settling of the Land of Israel by Jews INSIDE the
pre-1967 Green Line. Keep the Jews out of
Israel, seems to be their mantra. According to YNET (http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-4083778,00.html

itself "Ayalim" has been approaching students and asking to speak in

Ayalim has set up 14 small student communities
as part of its efforts to realize the vision of David Ben Gurion to
settle the Negev, the same Ben Gurion after whom the university is
named. The university gave approval to reps from the group to speak
before classes. But after all, how dare the university approve
people to speak before BGU students about things other than the
necessity for implementing the Palestinian right of return and the
right of the Hamas to fire rockets at Jews!!!
And besides, these little talks to students can
come at the expense of BGU class lectures devoted to the reasons why
Israel is a racist apartheid regime in need of annihilation! You
know, the USUAL classroom materials at BGU!
