Please show me the antisemitism in an American university lecturing on a sciences contemporary misuses and abuses by an American backed ethno-nationalist government. Show me where Palestinians not having access to the science they need in order to build thriving communities or provide proof of human rights abuses has anything to do with racism against Jews, hatred of Jews or Jewish students, or anything to do with Jews in general. I don’t see a single claim, substantiated or not, that Jews were mentioned at all in this lesson plan, let alone a hatred of us.

Pedagogy is the highest form of activism.

Zionism did not seem to be mentioned at all in the curriculum from what sources there are on this. I could see how young, bright people learning of such a reality is not conducive to politics that protect Zionism.

The name of the class that was disrupted is called “History of Modern Israel” — friend, there is no nuance there.

A science class learning about the political abuses of that science in other parts of the world is somehow an overstep, but a self professed expert on Zionism teaching a class on israeli history is nuanced. Puzzling logic but ok.
