DOUGLAS MURRAY:UPCOMING CAMPUS CONFERENCE ON INTERNATIONAL LAW AND ISRAEL ”PUREST ACADEMIC CLAPTRAP”…….

Any time you here a conference on international law, peace, justice with Israel in the sentence, it’s guaranteed to be an anti-Israel hate-fest.

This is no debate but a rally of hate aimed at Israel

EARLIER this month we once again saw what hotbeds of extremism and hatred some of our university campuses have become.

The fact that Mohammed Emwazi (aka “Jihadi John”) had been a student at Westminster university could have surprised no one.

Nor could the discovery that on the very night Emwazi was unmasked his university was due to host a radical preacher who preaches the most hardline versions of sharia.

In the same week as a new video revealed commonplace anti-Jewish hatred on Britain’s streets, the Cambridge University Union Society once again chose to debate the motion “Israel is a rogue state”.

The Cambridge Union – the oldest in the country – enjoys debating that motion more than any other. It is a fixture in its termly schedules.

And once again last week the students of Cambridge decided to hold Israel guilty among the nations. Needless to say there is no record of Cambridge students debating whether Pakistan (created in the same year as Israel) is a rogue state. Despite there being far more reasons to do so.

Nor does the Cambridge Union annually denigrate any of Israel’s neighbours in the Middle East. During last week’s Cambridge debate the notorious anti-Israeli activist and discredited academic Norman Finkelstein explained to the students that Israel is worse than North Korea.

The students agreed with him. Next month the University of Southampton will become the latest university to fix its position on this bandwagon of hate.
