McGill university student government seeks to oust Jewish representative for accepting Hillel-sponsored Israel trip

11

The anti-Israel Left has taken control of university campuses in Canada. As such, Jewish life on Canadian university campuses is being systematically destroyed. Now that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has officially betrayed Israel at the United Nations, look for the anti-Israel Left in Canada to become even more emboldened, and more violent, and more legitimized.

McGill university student government seeks to oust Jewish representative for accepting Hillel-sponsored Israel trip

By World Israel News, December 2, 2019:

“They take issue not with the fact that I have other involvements, but that these other involvements are associated with a political view that they personally disagree with,” the Jewish student said.

he Students’ Society of McGill University (SSMU) in Montreal, Canada has attempted to remove a Jewish student from her position on the Legislative Council over her decision to partake in a sponsored trip to Israel and the West Bank.

Second-year science student Jordyn Wright accepted an offer by the Jewish campus organization Hillel to visit Israel and the Palestinian territories, and meet with politicians, journalists and locals offering multiple perspectives. According to Wright, she was hoping to “better understand a very nuanced geopolitical conflict.”

“As a Jew, my connection to Israel is a core aspect of my identity, and I hoped that this trip would help me to experience Israel through a new lens,” Wright wrote on Friday in a widely circulated Facebook Post.

Under pressure from members of the student government who support the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, SSMU called for Wright’s resignation on “Conflict of Interest” grounds.

Interrogation without warning

According to Wright, she was also interrogated by the Science Executive Committee for almost two hours with no prior warning about her decision to participate in the trip.

“Not only were the questions designed to target and intimidate me, but I was purposefully prevented from having sufficient time to find the information they wanted,” Wright said.

the obvious response is for jewish students, and their jewish parents’ money, to notify mcgill today that they will not be returning in 2020. my guess is this blatant anti-semitism would be corrected by the administration within one day of receiving such notice. rather than whine, jews need to become weaponized

sue them out of existence everytime they take down Trump supporters , shut down Jews/conservative free speech and promote Left/.islam agenda.

This is how patriots fightback and win http://tinyurl.com/y8yzso88

corrupt Left/liberal media will not talk about it lest it wake up the masses to fightback !

But most conservatives won’t fund, support but prefer someone else fight their battle , while they prefer to be internet “warriers”. That is why the Left/Jihadis win.

They are united and will use all fair and foul means to destroy American law for their benefit/power grab

Obvious antisemitism. I presume that every individual in student, faculty and administration official can be sued.

She’s going to visit the “Palestinian territories” eh? I’ll bet she won’t be doing so alone, nor will it be an unscheduled sojourn in the paleswein terrortories.
It’s interesting to note that as the dying atheist West is accepting muslum dieversity it’s accepting muslum “values” right alongside them — in particular antisemitism (no matter how subtly disguised).

Canada’s Liberal Fascist and clearly antisemitic Prime Minister Trudeau is the inspiration for the McGILL students. Canada’s now fascist media will not even report on such events.

Trust me: antisemitism is nothing new for McGill.

Until the 1950s or so, Jews were excluded or limited in admission.

In the 1980s, Jews studying Management had an uphill battle getting proper grades; a Jew getting a 75 would be like a non-Jew getting a 90 – once the students voiced their concerns magically their grades stopped being suppressed.

McConnell told McGill that if it accepted money from the Bronfmans he would pull out all funding. The week he died McGill began plans for the Bronfman Building (management).

Engineering has become heavily Muslim to the point that many professor hirings in various departments is muslim to make the students more comfortable.

In the 70s, there were demonstrations and at times violence against Jews or Jewish organisations.

The student paper, The McGill Daily, since the late 1960s had become an anti-Israel and barely not antisemitic, funded by mandatory student fees. By the 70s, almost all the editorial and reporting was very, very left wing.

On a building, seen by anyone walking out of campus, was painted “Kill all Jews”. It took the university almost two weeks to clean it off. Only after a call to a radio show did the school do anything. Similar happened many times.

Jews do not get prayer areas on campus. Muslim students do. Hard to believe that McGill is secular.

The list goes on.

At the University of Southern California, the MSU (Muslum Student Union) had, on their university sponsored website’s homepage, the text of one of the ahadith that plainly calls for the worldwide extermination of Jews.

Does SSMU do this with students who go to Gaza or West Bank, support Hamas or other recognised terrorist groups, or who make antisemitic comments? No.

Its think as we do, and do not try to get a more encompassing view. Or else…

The fact that this Trudeau sissy-boy has been in place in Canada for several years speaks volumes to the idea of America keeping more distance from Canada than ever before. Canada is far larger geographically than they will ever be politically, mostly because of the weak lefty politicians their citizens elect. The USA does not need allies like Canada, and we had better strengthen our border against them while Trump is still in office.

The world is composed of two huge influences, freedom-lovers and government-lovers. The latter always gravitate to the evils of socialism, communism, Islam, and anti-Semitism. The U.N. is the greatest developement ever concocted for the government-lovers. Why is that? Because the U.N. condones the evil right along with the good.

Only fools try to work for freedom with the help of their enemies. America needs to start up and attract other freedom-loving nations which are not liberal, communist or Islamic in any ways to a completely freedom-loving organization. Only then can we expect to make progress for freedom-lovers instead of for government-lovers.

Losers like Trudeau & Canada are like a chain around the throats of freedom-lovers.
