Brandeis U, suspends partnership with Palestinian university following Nazi-style protest
Brandeis University has suspended its partnership with the Palestinian Al-Quds University.
Brandeis University President Frederick Lawrence made the announcement Monday, saying the university will re-evaluate the relationship in the future. The universities have been sister institutions since 1998.
The decision was made in light of recent events at the university, which has campuses in Jerusalem, Abu-Dis and Al-Bireh, including a November 5 Nazi-style demonstration at the main campus.
During the demonstration, protesters marched in black military gear with fake automatic weapons while waving flags and offering the traditional Nazi salute. Banners with images of Palestinian suicide bombers decorated the campusÂ’ main square, according to a statement from Brandeis. Several students also portrayed dead Israeli soldiers.
Leftards are, incurably, symbol oriented---as long as Paleos marched under red of socialism & green of Islam while demanding death to Juice, it was perfectly OK.
