Ben Gurion UniversityBen Gurion University – Neve Gordon (Dept of Political Science) is awarded the Qaddafi Human Rights PrizeMembers of the Zionist student organization "Im Tirtzu" crashed the Nuremberg Rally at Ben Gurion University. They handed out to participants copies of a diploma, announcing the award to Neve Gordon of the Muammar Qaddafi Prize in Human Rights. As you recall, Qaddafi's people sit in the UN's "Human Rights Commission," and their ideas about human rights are exactly the same as those of Neve Gordon: namely, that pretend concern for "human rights" is a great bludgeon to use to destroy Israel. Maariv cites officials at Ben Gurion University who expressed unhappiness with the one-sided anti-Israel character of the "conference." That did not have any effect on the content or the organizers, who just went ahead and held their Nuremberg Rally in campus facilities paid for by the Israeli taxpayer. Gordon himself is cited by Maariv as saying that there is also opposition in Iran and Syria to human rights conferences. He is wrong. The sort of conference he ran, consisting entirely of Israel bashing, is precisely the sort of "human rights conference" that Libya and Syria often happily host.
http://thejewishpress.blogspot.com/2011/04/qaddafi-prize-in-human-rights-to-ben.html The Qaddafi Prize in Human Rights, to Ben Gurion University Propagandist Steven PlautThursday, April 14, 2011 A few days ago we reported that Ben Gurion University was about to hold a conference on "human rights," in which every single speaker participating would be an anti-Israel Far Leftist. Not a single pro-Israel speaker would be allowed to speak. Here was - once again - an example of the one-sided anti-Israel indoctrination "conferences" so popular in Israeli academic institutions. These are held regularly by the politics department at BGU, events which Ben Gurion University's cabbagehead president, Rivka Carmi, just cannot find. This "conference" was largely the initiative of the anti-Semitic pro-terror pseudo-academic Neve Gordon, who claims to teach "human rights" courses in the Department of Politics at BGU. But for Gordon, the only human rights that need defending are the rights of Arabs to murder Jews. Gordon has never heard of any human rights for Jews deserving of protection. His calls for boycotting and eliminating Israel appear, among other places, on the web sites of Holocaust Deniers and Neo-Nazis, in al-Jazeera, and in the state newspaper of Iran. Gordon was in the headlines a few days ago for justifying the kidnapping of Gilad Shalit. Virtually all of Gordon's "academic record" consists of churning out anti-Israel hate propaganda, and it was thanks to this hate propaganda that BGU awarded Gordon tenure and keeps promoting him. These promotions have the blessings of Rivka Carmi as well as the leftist Rector and ultra-leftist Dean of Social Sciences at BGU. In our earlier posting, we referred to this week's one-sided bash-Israel "conference" as Ben Gurion University's Nuremberg Rally. The only "violator" of human rights discussed at the "conference" was Israel. No one at the conference could discern any human rights abuses in the 100 years of Arab anti-Jewish terrorism or genocidal aggression. No one could discern any violations of human rights in Libya or Syria or Yemen. Today the Israeli daily Maariv carries a scoop, available only in Hebrew, which can be read here. Members of the Zionist student organization "Im Tirtzu" crashed the Nuremberg Rally at Ben Gurion University. They handed out to participants copies of a diploma, announcing the award to Neve Gordon of the Muammar Qaddafi Prize in Human Rights. As you recall, Qaddafi's people sit in the UN's "Human Rights Commission," and their ideas about human rights are exactly the same as those of Neve Gordon: namely, that pretend concern for "human rights" is a great bludgeon to use to destroy Israel. Maariv cites officials at Ben Gurion University who expressed unhappiness with the one-sided anti-Israel character of the "conference." That did not have any effect on the content or the organizers, who just went ahead and held their Nuremberg Rally in campus facilities paid for by the Israeli taxpayer. Gordon himself is cited by Maariv as saying that there is also opposition in Iran and Syria to human rights conferences. He is wrong. The sort of conference he ran, consisting entirely of Israel bashing, is precisely the sort of "human rights conference" that Libya and Syria often happily host. You can see the diploma for the Qaddafi Prize here: It says: Hereby is the Certificate of the Granting of the Muammar Qaddafi Prize in Human Rights, for the category of brainwashing and silencing critics and for having the intellectual weight of a fly, awarded to Dr. Neve Gordon for his work in promoting our joint agenda. The destruction of Jerusalem will comfort us! Diploma signed by: Azmi Bishara (Israeli Arab traitor now in hiding, wanted for terrorism and espionage), Che Guevara, and Joseph dze Jughashvili (Stalin's original name). Meanwhile, the wonderful LATMA web site has also run an item about this. Latma is the delicious web site run by Caroline Glick that keeps coming up with those incredible songs and parodies. Writing about Gordon and his Qaddafi Prize (in Hebrew only) Latma calls for a responsible adult to remind the Maariv writers just who and what Gordon is. (Latma believes the Maariv piece did not come close to describing what a treasonous monstrosity Gordon really is.)
