Is it clear now what this movement is really all about? It certainly should be.
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
Northwestern University Dean of Students Attends Protest Targeting Campus Jewish Community CenterThe dean of students at Northwestern University attended an anti-Israel protest this week targeting Hillel, the school’s Jewish student community center, to defend the demonstrators’ “right to free speech.”Dean of Students Mona Dugo said she showed up at the rally on Monday to support anti-Israel activists’ “right to protest” and to “protect the right to free speech,” according to the Daily Northwestern.Protest organizers demanded that the university end its relationship with Hillel, a 100-year-old nonprofit group that operates Jewish community centers on campuses around the world, including Northwestern. The protest took place during Northwestern’s Admitted Students Day, which seeks to introduce incoming students to campus life.”[Hillel] is one of the many ways in which this university is complicit in infusing Jewishness with Zionism,” one protest organizer said in a speech at the rally.A leaflet handed out by protesters accused Northwestern of “funneling Jewish students into Hillel, the Zionist ‘foundation for Jewish life.’” It also claimed the school “weaponizes claims of anti-Semitism on campus to silence pro-Palestinian activism.”Protesters also accused Israel of “genocide” and called on Northwestern to end any relationships with “Zionist companies.”The protest comes as alumni have accused Northwestern president Michael Schill of allowing anti-Semitism to proliferate on campus, where anti-Israel protesters have raised the Hamas flag at student demonstrations. During Northwestern’s Martin Luther King Jr. memorial ceremony in February, a speaker accused Israel of “genocide” as Schill sat silently in the audience, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
