Cornell Students Trash Israel
I am a 1967 graduate of Cornell University’s College of Arts and Sciences. The Times of Israel has reported that, by disgracefully lopsided majorities and with apparently little debate, Cornell University’s Student Assembly on Thursday voted to cut ties with Israel’s Technion University and condemned the university for hosting center-left Israeli politician Tzipi Livni. She is a well-known dove who opposes the Netanyahu government.
The passage of the resolutions shows that campus anti-Israel activism stirs together a brew of university politics, unproven international legal allegations of genocide, and the hijacking of representative groups like the Student Assembly, dedicated to local issues, to advance opposition to Israel.
These clearly........
