Email from Zionist Organization of America   ZIONIST ORGANIZATION OF AMERICA NEWS RELEASE ZOA Criticizes AJC-Univ. Groups’ Wrongly Opposing Trump Admin’s Actions to Stop Campus Antisemitism Yesterday, the American Jewish Committee (AJC) led by former liberal Democrat Congressman Ted Deutsch, issued a statement together with several university groups, misleadingly titled “AJC, AAU, ACE Statement On Shared Commitment To Combating Antisemitism On College Campuses.” Unfortunately, the actual statement was not a “commitment” to combating antisemitism. Rather, the statement was a call for weakening the Trump administration’s effective and praiseworthy measures to finally address the scourge and danger of campus antisemitism – after decades of failure by universities and prior administrations. Among other efforts to weaken Trump’s effective measures, the AJC letter accused the Trump administration’s measures of being “overly broad,” “imperiling science,” “endangering” universities’ “institutional autonomy,” and “endangering academic freedom.” If we were to listen to AJC and its fellow letter-signers, nothing would change on college campuses.

In the current campus context, the AJC statement’s demand for supposed “academic freedom” is really a call to continue giving universities billions of U.S. tax dollars, while giving Islamic Arab Hamas-supporters the “freedom” to block and prevent Jews from attending classes...
