In response to “Nakba Week” at UCLA and “Antizionism Week” on other campuses:

Antizionism does not advance peace. By denying the Jewish people’s right to exist collectively in their ancestral homeland, and by spreading anti-Jewish libels, conspiracy theories, stigma, exclusion, and violence, the antizionist movement deepens conflict and perpetuates Palestinian suffering.
Had Arab leaders accepted the UN Partition Plan in 1947, or had Palestinian leadership fully embraced the promise of Oslo, Israelis and Palestinians could have been living side by side for decades. Real progress requires mutual recognition, compromise, and a commitment to coexistence.

Yesterday, seven Jewish UCLA faculty and staff filed a motion to intervene in a pending civil rights lawsuit against the University of California, asserting that antisemitic actions, largely in the form of antizionism, targeted their Jewish identity. This intervention follows the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s finding of reasonable cause that UCLA subjected the plaintiffs to a hostile work environment based on Jewish identity and religion, in violation of Title VII. It also follows more than two years of work by the Jewish Faculty Resilience Group (JFRG) to document anti-Jewish hostility and seek institutional accountability.

The complaint describes how the rise of antizionism following October 7, 2023, has fueled discrimination and hostility toward Jews for whom Zionism is an integral part of their identity. It also documents concrete patterns of conduct, including exclusion from professional opportunities, retaliation against those who raised concerns, and inconsistent enforcement of university policies affecting Jewish employees.

This case asks whether Jewish faculty can participate fully in academic life without facing identity-based hostility and whether universities will apply anti-discrimination standards consistently.

Global Imam Council speaks truth, and what the Jewish Facukty Resilience Group at UCLA has been warning about on campus calls for intifada for over 2 years: History shows that, when incitement against Jews hides behind slogans, chants, and politics, violence eventually follows. University leaders must use their own free speech to condemn calls for intifada on campus. Antizionism is an anti-Jewish hate movement that is spreading calls for intifada on campuses. University leadership, when this happens on your campus, speak up. Stop missing these teaching moments.

Antizionism is not politics. It spreads lies about Jewish history and Israel to turn the world against Jews and their ancestral homeland. Until UCLA adopts and enforces the IHRA definition, antisemitism will keep hiding behind “politics.”

In practice, under IHRA:
A statement or action can be antisemitic even if the person insists they did not “intend” antisemitism, or claims they “only meant politics.”
What matters is whether the conduct matches IHRA patterns. For example:
1) Denying Jews the right to self determination by saying Israel’s existence is inherently racist.
2)Holding Israel to standards not expected of any other country.
3) Using N**i analogies, blood libel, or demonizing imagery for Israel or “Zionists.”

Watch Prof at UCLA School of Med address an ongoing issue there: Antizionist indoctrination.
UCLA’s School of Medicine should be a place of learning, not ideological pressure.
Indoctrination is not education.
Antizionism is hate.

A plurality of Jews live in Israel.
Soon it will be a majority.
Antizionism isn’t a policy debate.
It’s denying the future most Jews have chosen and the right of a people to chart its own path.
Professor Michael Berenbaum explains.

UCLA lecturer Dr. Deborah Termeie addresses the UC Regents:
Several UCLA departments promoted a program attacking Zionism and Jewish identity.
Not one cosponsored the balancing companion event.
✨Zionism is the Jewish story of origin, belonging, and homecoming✨.
To attack Zionism is to attack Jewish identity, itself.
As Dr. Termeie was leaving the room, an audience member hurled the word “genocidal” at her. This is the climate we’re in.
Chancellor Frenk and UC Regents — this crisis is inside your walls. We urge you to speak out. ✡️

“When they speak, I speak too.”
UCLA prof Hindi Stohl Posy, MD, JD, reminds Jewish students, staff and faculty that free speech belongs to all of us. A granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, she refuses to shrink.
In a climate heavy with antizionist venom,
the answer is -- Courage.
Stand proud.
Stand open.
Stand Jewish. ✡️🔥
