CAMERA on Campus UK pledges to give students the resources to stand against Jew-hatred. Today, we are launching SJP Exposed, a campaign that gives students the educational materials necessary to support their grassroots efforts and to empower them to proudly stand with Israel in the face of adversity on campus. Visit www.sjpexposed.org to learn more.
CAMERA on Campus urges administrators to publicly disapprove of and sever ties with Palestinian Societies, inciting violence and lauding the murder of innocent Jews.
Educational institutions must guarantee the safety and inclusion of Jewish and pro-Israel students on campus. This issue is not a matter of free speech but a clear case of promoting and endorsing ethnic discrimination and violence against the Jewish community.
On Saturday, October 7th, 2023, the world witnessed the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. But that very day, SJP chapters immediately began lauding Hamas’ war crimes against Israeli civilians and declaring “victory.”
Today, with the dust settling, we have come to understand that Hamas militants in Gaza launched indiscriminate rocket barrages into Israel. Some of these rockets landed in Palestinians’ own areas. Additionally, Hamas sent terrorists through Israel’s security barrier to commit heinous acts such as kidnapping, assault, and murder against over a thousand Israeli civilians and tourists from various countries, spanning all age groups, from infants to the elderly.
Despite confirmed reports, Pal Socs have responded by intensifying their rhetoric, going as far as hosting several rallies and demonstrations in a show of solidarity with Hamas.
These incidents, anticipated to occur in or around university campuses, unveil the genuine intentions behind SJP’s “activism”: advocating for the eradication of the State of Israel and singling out Jewish individuals both within and outside Israel.
We urge students and community members to voice their concerns and ensure that university administrators and officials are informed about the group’s efforts to align with the serious war crimes committed by Hamas since October 7th. We anticipate that anyone in a position to serve all students, including Jewish students, will distance themselves from SJP’s blatant display of hostility towards the Jewish community.
