BDS bullies at Galway University
A veteran left-wing former Member of Knesset sent me an email today. This is really shocking. Beyond belief. We shall overcome he wrote. He was reacting to this video (explicit language from the start), filmed on 5 March at the National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG):
It has been viewed 27,000 times in three days on YouTube. It shows what happened when I tried to speak on the campus against a Boycott Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) push at the University. The BDS supporters shouted vile abuse, threatened the students who disagreed with them, and tried to break up the meeting. You Zionist pr**ks, f*** off our campus, now! they screamed.
In a welcome move the University has released a statement calling the behaviour unacceptable and promising an immediate investigation. Thats good. But what explains the hatred and intimidation spreading on some European campuses?
First, anti-Semitism. The activist who tried to break up the meeting - he failed is Joseph Loughnane, a leader of the NUIG Palestine Solidarity Society. He is on record in 2008 as having said that the Jews run the American media and push their agenda. If you launch a campaign to exclude Israeli Jews, but nobody else, from the global academic, cultural, sporting and economic community, then its inevitable that your campaign will act as a lightning rod for rising European anti-Semitism. And so it is proving.

More proof, as if anymore is needed, that the BDS movement is racist to the core.
