Let's Be Clear - P.A. is NOT a State!

Thursday - October 4, 2018 ACTION ALERT THIS AFTERNOON - OCTOBER 4 FROM 4 PM - 6 PM WE'VE HAD ENOUGH! PROTEST AGAINST COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY'S MISTREATMENT AND LACK OF PROTECTION FOR STUDENTS SUPPORTING ISRAEL (SSI) MEET NEAR COLUMBIA'S MAIN GATES BROADWAY @ 116TH STREET Students Supporting Israel (SSI) have been harassed and intimated time and again. Columbia has done nothing to protect the pro-Israel students, and has shown apathy and total disregard for their safety. All Columbia University students deserve protection! Freedom of speech for all! Members from Students Supporting Israel, Columbia's chapter of Alums for Campus Fairness, faculty, and the local community have had enough. We demand fair and equal treatment by the administration! Last semester SSI filed a detailed, thorough, and evidence-based complaint documenting our members' harassment by anti-Zionist groups and individuals on campus, and of their clearly numbered violations of the CU Rules of Conduct. And yet, Columbia University has taken no action, summarily dismissed the complaint, and left its students without any protection from harassment and bullying. Since then, SSI submitted three more complaints, and the Columbia administration has failed to appropriately address any of them. SSI has spoken with university administrators on numerous occasions, but all of their requests have fallen on deaf ears. It is time to show the university that we will not stand by quietly while SSI and other pro-Israel students are harassed and systematically silenced on its own campus. Please join us and help them receive the protection they need! Now is the time to stand together! Who Does the American Jewish Donor Stand With? Ronn Torossian continues to follow the anti-Israel activities of the New Israel Fund (NIF). The NIF supports Hamoked which is an organization opposing the state of Israel in court over relatives of a terrorist that Israel recently deported. They family has links to ISIS, they are not citizens and present a security concern. If American Jews think that supporting the NIF is a worthwhile charitable cause then they need to think again. Whitewashing of a Proud Anti-Semite "They are hook-nosed. Many people called the Malays fat-nosed. We didn't object, we didn't go to war for that" "I am proud to be labeled anti-Semitic." (2012) "Jews rule the world by proxy. They got others to fight and die for them." (2003) This sickening rhetoric is from the Malaysian Prime Minster Mahatir Mohamad. Prominent newspapers have interviewed him and avoided pressing him on his virulent anti-semitic rants. Instead of exposing the truth they keep it hidden and protected ultimately adding to baseless, hostile and bitter hatred of Jews and Israel.
