Hat tip to OC Independent Task Force on Anti-Semitism and ZOA
The below link is a press release by the Zionist Organization of America condemning the University of California at Irvine for what ZOA calls a "whitewash" of the George Galloway event of May 21, 2009 in which funds were collected from the audience for "Gaza relief".
Also contained in the document is ZOA's link to the UCI letter by Chief Counsel Diane Geocaris advising ZOA that the investigation was closed.

Is this the same response we should expect from UC Irvine after their investigation of the "Irvine11" or whatever those nimrods MSU members called themselves after they repeatedly disrupted Michael Oren's speech?
UC Irvine's non-action may lead to either the MSU going beyond what they have done so far. Maybe repeatedly inviting a HAMAS supporter to speak on campus won't be enough. Maybe repeatedly disrupting the Israeli Ambassador speech won't be enough. Maybe raising funds and brining goods to HAMAS won't be enough.
Maybe they will carry out what they are instructed to do in Article 7 of the HAMAS Charter where it says:
"The Day of Judgement will not come about until Muslims fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Muslims, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him."
Or maybe the next time a speech is given that the MSU members finds offensive and where they attempt to again use a heckler veto and repeatedly disrupt the speaker, someone from another perspective might take matters into their own hands so the speakers First Amendment rights are protected and the situation could erupt.
The university is playing a dangerous game by not enforcing rules that would promote a civil environment.

I think you hit the nail on the head. Of course, the Oren incident will end the same way as the Galloway incident.It's just a matter of time before someone gets seriously hurt.
