78% of US Jewish undergrads have experienced or witnessed anti-Semitism on campus (with video)

Liran Kapoano reports on a shocking statistic: 78% of Jewish undergrads on US college campuses say that they have witnessed or experienced anti-Semitism. Actually, not shocking. It's reality.

These battles are raging all this week on college campuses across the United States as "Israel Apartheid" Week takes place at universities from New York to California. Many of the organizers claim they are simply calling attention to what they claim are discriminatory policies by the Israeli government and that this is a human rights issue - unmotivated by any hatred of Jews.

They claim they have no problem with Jews, only the state of Israel as an entity.

But lost in the recent hysteria about the NYPD's alleged religious profiling of Muslims in the New York/New Jersey area and renewed focus on "Islamophobia," was a study by the American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise, that revealed a SHOCKING statistic.

78% of Jewish undergrads have either directly experienced or witnessed anti-Semitism.

This is on top of the annual FBI hate-crime statistic report which again identified Jews as being the most targeted religious group in America - nearly 600% more hate crimes were committed against Jews than Muslims. More hate crimes were committed against Jews than Hispanics, gays and Asians.

Let's go to the videotape.



I am so glad my kids aren't going to college in the US like Mrs. Carl and I did.
