UC Berkeley: Jewish Students to Meet With Vice Chancellor re: Hatem Bazian
The saga of UC Berkeley professor and agitator Hatem Bazian continues. As a result of recent (re) tweets of his showing clearly anti-semitic images and language, a group of Jewish students will be meeting with the Vice Chancellor to discuss their concerns.

This is not an isolated incident. Bazian, who is also co-founder of Students for Justice in Palestine (an organization that uses tactics of disruption), has a long history of controversial statements about Jews made in the course of his attacks on Israel. It is not Bazian's opposition to Israel that is at issue. UC Berkeley must consider whether Bazian has crossed the line into attacking Jews in general. In my opinion, he has.
Anti-Semitism thrives at UC campuses and the leadership these Universities, Napolitano in particular allow Jew hatred to continue.
