No boycott of Ben Gurion University... for now
A good winter to everyone, although it sure doesn't seem like winter is anytime soon given that Friday's predicted high in Jerusalem is 36 degrees Celsius (97 Fahrenheit). But that's the traditional greeting after the holidays end, and they have ended here in Israel although not yet abroad.Israel Radio reports that the University of Johannesburg has decided not to boycott Ben Gurion University... for now. However, they have told Ben Gurion to make joint ventures with 'Palestinian' universities - or else.
You might have thought that a university whose faculty promotes boycott, divestment and sanctions against Israel would already have relationships with 'Palestinian' universities. You would be wrong. You see, even for the Leftist Jews, this isn't about helping the Arabs. It's about destroying the State of Israel. In fact, the biggest racists in this country are the Leftists.

And has the University of J. got lots of these joint projects wit Palestinians?
Happens that my daughter studies at B-G. She often tells me of her Muslim/Bedouin friends at the University & how they help each other with their homework.
Real apartheid that needs "or else" threats, eh?
True... who seeks to keep Arabs who work on the revanants unemployed?
The Peace Now Crowd. Their support for a freeze has never been about helping the Palestinians and every one knows it.
Personally, I have would have been delighted if the South Africans HAD boycotted Ben Gurion University. The comeuppance would have been a delicious sight to witness, indeed.
