Israelis at Non-Israeli Universities

University of Exeter - Professional Israel Basher Ilan Pappe (Dept. of Political Science) Proclaimed Hero of the Raelian Movement of UFO Chasers

Bow down to him, earthling scum!

Now frankly I would not blame you a bit for assuming the following story is a gag. After all, Purim is anon. And the story is so absurd that it could clearly be nothing but a spoof. So I forgive you in advance for dismissing this post as parody. Nevertheless, there is it on the news services of the world. Yes, comrades, the Raelian movement of UFO hunters has decided to grant its award for "Honorary Guide of Humanity" to Israeli expatriate anti-Semite Ilan Pappe.

The story is here:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/usnw/20110310/pl_usnw/DC62737

For those who have not heard of them, The Raelians are the followers of a race car driver who suddenly started having strange encounters with UFOs and space aliens. The Raelians make Barry Chamish look sane.

Now I think it is lovely that Ilan Pappe is at long last getting the recognition that he so richly deserves for his important scholarly work and university career. Pappe has built his academic career upon inventing an imaginary massacre at Tantora, out of fabricating the tale that Israel carried out "ethnic cleansing" of Arabs, and out of serving as Israel's Lord Haw-Haw in regard to everything else. Now, evidently, he has decided that the planet earth is just not large enough for "the Guide of Humanity's" ego and so Pappe is taking his campaign against the Joos to the stars.

Here is the official Raelian announcement:
http://www.raelpress.org/news.php?item.225.1

Here are some segments of that announcement: '(Raelian spokeswoman) Boisselier said that according to Raelian philosophy, humanity on Earth was created by human beings from another planet. "…All prior prophets foretold the last prophet, Rael, who has a special role to play in Israel as the Messiah. He is to build the Third Temple there, an embassy to welcome the Elohim, our creators." 'But Israel has not yet agreed to cooperate, she said….As Pappe has said, the present state of Israel is the worst thing that has happened to the Palestine region. Nevertheless, that region now contains many Raelian activists, who will never stop devoting their lives to the building of a peaceful, unified Palestine. They fully support the new Honorary Guide, Ilan Pappe."
