In exposing the behavior of Israel's academic leftists, Isracampus reports in most cases about well-educated people who like to define themselves as "peace activists," who believe they think beyond the curve, and as "humanitarians" who are concerned about abuses of the Arabs by nationalistic Jews. Most of course seem to view the world in a Manichean mindset, that is, all is good or bad and there is no gray in-between. They often claim that Israel is the embodiment of evil, of oppressive colonialism and apartheid. These people gravitate to Academia where they can get tenured and be sheltered from accountability. Political Cronyism among other faculty and staff converts Israeli academia into a self-perpetuating bureaucracy misinterpreted as "academic freedom."

This describes tenured treason superstar in Math and Computer Science Professor Ofer Neiman at Ben Gurion University. He is an open advocate of Palestinian violence against Jews.
…
Neiman is one of the leaders of the Boycott Within movement, which consists of Israelis urging world boycotts of their own countrymen. They promote these boycotts from within Israel, even against the University that employs Neiman:

Quoting Neiman: "There are Israelis -- not just a few -- who think this is equivalent to treason. I disagree… Ours in not a violent campaign… And another thing about BDS is that it gives a voice to people all over the world…"

Sorry, but no, Ofer, it is treason when someone lobbies for those who want to harm one's fellow countrymen and one aids and abets a genocidal enemy.

Economic aggression under the guise of "BDS" or "Boycotts, Divestment and Sanctions," ultimately directed at Israeli children, is violence. Indicting those engaged in BDS treason is resistance.

Ben Gurion U.'s Math/Computer Professor Ofer Neiman's Lobbies for Arab Violence against the Jews

"The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane." ― Nikola Tesla

"The reason I talk to myself is because I'm the only one whose answers I accept." ― George Carlin

"If you're going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you're going to be locked up." ― Hunter S. Thompson

All of the above quotations apply aptly to Ben Gurion U.'s mathematics and computers Professor Ofer Neiman. The fellow despises his own country and makes little attempt to hide this.

This describes tenured treason superstar in Math and Computer Science Professor Ofer Neiman at Ben Gurion University. He is an open advocate of Palestinian violence against Jews.

Here's a quote from Neiman in an article published on the anti-Semitic pro-jihad Mondoweiss Blog on the Web, in which he criticizes another activist for recommending civil disobedience over violence:

"Kristof recommends that Palestinians send out only those people highly trained in civil disobedience. This does make some sense, considering acts of stone throwing I have witnessed around me during demonstrations (it should be stressed that throwing stones by Palestinians at well- armed Israeli soldiers enforcing a violent occupation is certainly not a criminal act). However, his Indian example seems to fail: Israeli soldiers will not just club the demonstrators. They will shoot them. This is certainly true for the 'no-entry' zones inside the Gaza strip, declared by Israel."

Here we see Neiman at his tenured best. Throwing a rock at an Israeli soldier is not a criminal act. I wonder how Neiman would react if his students in the IDF threw rocks at him in class; he'd almost certainly call the police to protect him. Hamas, of course, has armed terrorists that comprise an army, men who follow a charter that calls for the deaths of all the world's Jews, not just Israelis. And those 'no-entry zones' are so missiles cannot be fired on Neiman's fellow Israelis in the South.

He continues:

"And isn't it strange that Kristof omits cases of protester violence in Iran last year? For some reason, this violence does not taint the Iranian struggle, but the much much (sic) milder Palestinian act of stone throwing does…" Of course, the Iranian protestors were fighting the Basiji stormtroopers who murdered Iranians seeking democracy (along with imported Palestinian enforcers). Comparing them to IDF soldiers stopping suicide bombers and terrorists who prey upon Neiman's fellow Israelis is instructive.

Some intellectuals believe math is the ultimate truth, so one might expect a math professor like Neiman to rely upon facts. His Facebook page is festooned with contacts and 'liked' photos of every anti-Semite and Jewish kapo in the current Israeli-Palestinian impasse. These include Mazen Qumisyeh, a co-founder of Al Awda and ISM leader who insists Jews have no right to live in a Jewish state, and Jeff Halper of ICHAD, which went to Gaza to help the Hamas government try and import weapons by sea to kill more Jews.

Neiman was sacked by the Israeli Air Force intelligence corps because he joined the treasonous 'Breaking the Silence.' That group was proven to have lied to the Media about "atrocities" allegedly committed by the IDF during Cast Lead, when it was determined their "eyewitnesses" were never even where they claimed to have been. Neiman also promotes B'tselem on his Facebook page, another "peace" group that routinely fabricates false flags against Israel and Jewish settlers.

Neiman is one of the leaders of the Boycott Within movement, which consists of Israelis urging world boycotts of their own countrymen. They promote these boycotts from within Israel, even against the University that employs Neiman:

Quoting Neiman: "There are Israelis -- not just a few -- who think this is equivalent to treason. I disagree. First of all, it's a non-violent campaign. It's very important to emphasize this. You know, Israel has been imposing much more strict measures of boycott and sanctions on the Palestinian population. Ours in not a violent campaign. Israel's blockade is a violent campaign of sanctions. And another thing about BDS is that it gives a voice to people all over the world. Someone living in the States can join this initiative and can be active. I think it's very important because many people all over the world -- especially American citizens who are fed up with American policies, including Obama's policies in the Middle East -- now they do something; there's a global campaign, and people can join this campaign."

Sorry, but no, Ofer, it is treason when someone lobbies for those who want to harm one's fellow countrymen and one aids and abets a genocidal enemy.

Economic aggression under the guise of "BDS" or "Boycotts, Divestment and Sanctions," ultimately directed at Israeli children, is violence. Indicting those engaged in BDS treason is resistance.

Neiman even hates his fellow academics when they fail to devote themselves to such treason: "Tel Aviv University, they have a center for strategic studies inside the university, and they have all sorts of academic experts, or so-called experts, issuing policy papers. And some of these policy papers include recommendations to commit acts that from our point of view here, are war crimes or oppressive or violations of human rights. Haifa University, they have a special program for IDF (Israel Defense Forces) officers, which makes it easier for IDF officers to obtain their academic degree. These are just a few examples of cooperation between Israeli universities and the Israeli military establishment."

Neiman clearly would like to see a special training program at Ben Gurion University for Hamas rocket crews.

"The campaign's focus is on the occupation, but at least the Palestinian call for academic and cultural sanctions, they're also talking about other important issues, like the refugee problem and the treatment of Israeli Arabs -- Palestinians who are Israeli citizens. None of these calls is trying to impose a certain solution -- a one-state solution or a two-state solution -- but it's important to clarify that it's not only about the occupation. This campaign is a result of Israeli policy, because if Israel had accepted the Saudi Initiative -- which is not just a Saudi initiative, it's an initiative by the Arab League, a comprehensive peace initiative based on the two-state solution and the '67 borders, then there would be no BDS campaign."

The decision that the Israeli taxpayer should continue subsidizing this traitor with a lifetime sinecure as he works to aid those who would kill their families is an outrage and an act of violence.
