A new study, reported by The Jewish Press, reveals that 70% of students at the University of California have witnessed or experienced anti-Semitism on campus. This is no surprise as Islamic Jew hatred is prevalent in the Muslim community, and while Muslim immigration increases, along with the Muslim student body, the BDS movement is trending among the ill-informed far left.
Some examples:
“Any time a BDS activity occurs on campus, the amount of swastikas found in libraries has gone up. Also, the amount of anti-Jewish posts…increases. (UCI)”
“Another was people blatantly calling for an intifada and the killing of Jews during a protest on campus. (UC Berkeley)”
“The divestment resolution period was one of the most toxic environments that I have seen for Jewish students on this campus. The amount of vitriol and hate coming from the pro divestment side was enormous. (UCD)”
“I was physically assaulted in an elevator in 2013. I heard my friend get called a ‘Zionist Kike’ by SJP. Today, I was called a ‘Kike’ on campus by SJP. My two female friends and I were shoved to the ground and physically assaulted at our own Israel event in 2014…I am afraid to be on this campus. (UCI)”

In March, I wrote the article, Anti-Semitism Grows Along with Muslim Population. We are seeing it here in America, and Jewish college students who should feel safe on campus, have to live in fear. There is no excuse for it. Isn’t liberalism supposed to be open-minded, protective of our mixed society and idealistic? If that were ever the case, things have changed drastically. Political correctness is all about bias and extremism.
