Florida State University student senate rejects pro-BDS, anti-IHRA resolutions
The student senate at Florida State University rejected a series of resolutions that supported the anti-Israel BDS movement and rejected the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s working definition on anti-Semitism.
The resolutions, which were authored by former student senate president Ahmad Daraldik, who came under fire for past anti-Semitic statements last summer, included one BDS resolution and another that calls on FSU to “rescind” its adoption of the widely accepted IHRA working definition of anti-Semitism.
According to StandwithUs, the BDS resolution and anti-IHRA resolutions were defeated in committee before they could reach the senate floor. The BDS resolution failed unanimously.
One of the anti-IHRA resolutions failed with a vote of 0-7-3, while the other was unanimously amended to remove all anti-IHRA language that was harmful to the Jewish community.

A chance to be proud of my alma mater..Finally! Both of the big publics in Florida have been stepping in it with the liberal freaks recently.
Kudos! to my principle-and-pluralism-promoting sibs at FSU, one of the great, “big public” twins in the Sunshine State.
Decency finds no bounds between students, faculty, and alums, competing alma maters notwithstanding; in fact, it binds us all, and mystically so.
Go, crush all the infamies among us. Repeat, write on your heart the words of Moses, recorded in Leviticus and engraved for all posterity on our nation’s Liberty Bell: Let every day be now like a Jubilee or 50th year and “proclaim liberty throughout the land, to all the inhabitants thereof!”
Let the divine gift of freedom, experienced in the original Exodus Passover, be felt and sensed this year anew, unlike previous years in America. We need a national rebirth.
And may the Lord God continue to bless our terrific governor, Ron DeSantis, and his family, and thus all Floridians and Americans.
Watch him fight for our nation’s liberty and lead its needed rebirth.
We’re all Bucs fans today.
Agreed.
