Columbia College President Is Outraged

L. Abe Bollinger said: " I am profoundly disturbed by the recent vote by Britain’s new University and College Union to advance a boycott against Israeli academic institutions.  In seeking to quarantine Israeli universities and scholars this vote threatens every university. At Columbia I am proud to say that we embrace Israeli scholars and universities that the UCU is now all too eager to isolate."

Harvard law Prof. Alan Dershowitz and Steven Weinberg, started a solidarity statement. University presidents are asking academics to sign.

University Professors lead a rich, cultured, and secure lifestyle, and profligating an anti Israeli bias, which in reality is anti Semitic, would be their Kiss of Death.
