As tensions rise all over Israel regarding the recent Nakba day protests and the death of Al-Jazeera reporter Sharin Abu Aqleh, Ben Gurion University is not immune to this turmoil. Students at Ben Gurion University were divided, on one side a sea of blue and white, and on the other,...
The human cost of enabling the incitement of violence
Over the past couple of months, close to a dozen innocent Israeli citizens- Jewish and non-Jewish alike- had their lives taken from them too soon, at the hands of terrorists. Most recently, on May 5th, Yom Haatzmaut, three people were killed and four were injured in a terror attack in...
Students for Justice in Palestine’s Land Day Lies

Israel’s Destruction Is Championed at the University of Chicago
In March, I detailed Students for Justice in Palestine’s campaign against academic freedom at the University of Chicago. Since then, the situation has only deteriorated. SJP’s initial anti-Israel boycott targeted courses about Israel that “legitimize” the Jewish state through so-called propaganda. Later, SJP expanded their boycott by demanding that the...
Ignore the Sensationalism: Israel’s Press is Free
Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh’s death while reporting on an IDF operation in Jenin is a tragedy deserving investigation. Journalistic freedom is vital to any nation that calls itself a democracy. Across our world, there are still many places without free presses and where journalists fear for their lives....
