I suggest the Jewish students and Israel fight back by pointing out that Abu Dhabi, another global partner for NYU, flogs its people for alcohol consumption and premarital sex (“BDS Move At NYU.
Tears Apart Student Union,” April 22)
[The article explained that NYU’s Graduate Student Organizing Committee has drafted a resolution calling for the university to close its program at Tel Aviv University.]
Shouldn’t the Graduate School be protesting the tenants of Islam that are against human rights? And especially as practiced in Abu Dhabi? A quick search on the Internet brought this up.
If they do not protest Abu Dhabi and the fact NYU has a center there, it is proof their BDS movement is really a shield for their own anti-Semitism. And, thus, their own hypocrisy.
Protest everything — or nothing
