Beit Berl College - Michal Chacham and Atrocity at
Beit Berl
Iris Almog lost much of her family on
October 4, 2003. They were in a Haifa restaurant, Maxim, owned by a
Christian Arab, when the 28-year-old Palestinian suicide bomber
Hanadi Jaradat, an educated lawyer, detonated the explosive belt she
was wearing in the restaurant. She murdered 21 Israelis, many of
them children, and wounded 51 others. Five members of Iris' family
were murdered, including her father, who was a senior navy officer,
her mother, her brother, and her two nephews, aged 9 and 11.
These days Iris has been taking
courses at the Beit Berl "College," which is a pseudo-college run by
the Kibbutz Movement in Israel. This past week she was attending a
course taught there by one Michal Chacham, a radical anti-Israel
pseudo-academic who teaches "women's studies." Chacham (whose name
is more than ironic) is a sponsor of calls for world boycotts
against Israel… She supports the "Palestinian right of return" that
would destroy Israel
(see
http://www.isracampus.org.il/third level pages/Petitions - the Ogla
document.htm)...
In Chacham's course, which turned out
to be largely a recital of the Palestinian pseudo-history of the "Nakba,"
Chacham screened the slanderous anti-Israel propaganda film "Jenin
Jenin," produced by terrorist Mohammed Bakri… You can imagine Iris'
reaction when she saw that the course in which she was registered
morphed into a celebration of the genocidal terrorists who murdered
her own family… Iris was subject to abuse by the "college," forced
to relive the murder of her parents and other family members while
her lecturer celebrated the murderers.
Beit Berl campus officials defended
this atrocity and the lecturer. The time has come to strip Beit Berl
of its accreditation and to shut it down.

Atrocity at Beit Berl
by Steven Plaut
26/12/2012
Iris Almog lost much of her family on October
4, 2003. They were in a Haifa restaurant, Maxim, owned by a
Christian Arab, when the 28-year-old Palestinian suicide bomber
Hanadi Jaradat, an educated lawyer, detonated the explosive belt she
was wearing in the restaurant. She murdered 21 Israelis, many of
them children, and wounded 51 others. Five members of Iris' family
were murdered, including her father, who was a senior navy officer,
her mother, her brother, and her two nephews, aged 9 and 11.
These days Iris has been taking courses at the
Beit Berl "College," which is a pseudo-college run by the Kibbutz
Movement in Israel. This past week she was attending a course taught
there by one Michal Chacham, a radical anti-Israel pseudo-academic
who teaches "women's studies." Chacham (whose name is more than
ironic) is a sponsor of calls for world boycotts against Israel, was
a supporter of the traitor/spy Azmi Bishara, and was one of the
extremists calling for Israeli soldiers to mutiny and refuse to
serve. She claims Israel is an apartheid regime that carries out
ethnic cleansing. She supports the "Palestinian right of return"
that would destroy Israel (see
http://www.isracampus.org.il/third level pages/Petitions - the Ogla
document.htm).
She was a supporter of Tali Fahima, the convicted
girlfriend-accomplice of a terrorist who helped him plan atrocities.
In Chacham's course, which turned out to be
largely a recital of the Palestinian pseudo-history of the "Nakba,"
Chacham screened the slanderous anti-Israel propaganda film "Jenin
Jenin," produced by terrorist Mohammed Bakri. The film portrays
Israeli soldiers as Nazi-like monsters who committed mass massacres
in the Battle of Jenin in 2002. Bakri himself admits his film is a
tissue of lies. In street to street fighting there against
entrenched terrorists, perhaps 20 Palestinians died and almost as
many Israeli troops, thanks to the reluctance of the military to use
artillery to dislodge the terrorists. Bakri was sued for libel by a
group of Israeli fighters who took part in the battle, but a leftist
court judge (who has been in the news for years because of
allegations of corruption) exonerated him.
You can imagine Iris' reaction when she saw
that the course in which she was registered morphed into a
celebration of the genocidal terrorists who murdered her own family.
She and other students walked out of the classroom in outrage when
the "film" was screened. The full story (in Hebrew) is here:
http://www.nrg.co.il/online/1/ART2/424/697.html?hp=1&cat=402&loc=3.
Iris was subject to abuse by the "college," forced to relive the
murder of her parents and other family members while her lecturer
celebrated the murderers.
Beit Berl campus officials defended this
atrocity and the lecturer. The time has come to strip Beit Berl of
its accreditation and to shut it down.
