Pro-Israel College Students Face Violent Aggression on Campus

Pro-Israel Jewish students are not afforded the luxury of enjoying campus life like other students. Instead, they face the prospect of being assaulted, bullied, persecuted, and defamed by violent pro-Palestinian groups. Groups such as Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), IfNotNow, Jewish Voice for Peace, and J Street. This is a very serious crisis.

Jewish advocates warn that pro-Israel college students to face aggression on campus

While they are looking forward to some sense of pre-pandemic normalcy at their schools, they also risk facing BDS and pro-Palestinian activists with renewed energy against the Jewish state.

CampuA number of Jewish groups have significant concerns about how Israel’s conflict with Hamas in the Gaza Strip this spring will correlate into anti-Jewish sentiment on North American college campuses as the fall semester begins.

Most colleges are resuming in-person and on-campus classes after nearly three semesters of virtual learning as a result of the global coronavirus pandemic. Even with the rapidly spreading Delta variant, universities are getting ready to start in full force, at least for now. While pro-Israel and Jewish students are looking forward to some sense of pre-pandemic normalcy at their schools, being back on campus means they also risk facing pro-Palestinian activists and renewed efforts at demonstrations against the Jewish state.

It also comes in the backdrop of the July 19 announcement by the Ben & Jerry’s ice-cream company not to sell their products in what they deem the “Occupied Palestinian territory”—namely, the West Bank and eastern Jerusalem. The Aug. 1 anti-Israel “intifada” rally in Brooklyn, N.Y., also has lingering effects.

Still, Jewish groups point to the criticism faced as a result of the Israel Defense Forces’ “Operation Guardian of the Walls”—criticism that led to a spate of anti-Semitic attacks in the United States and around the world. It came despite the fact that Hamas induced the conflict with rocket fire towards Israel; in the course of 11 days, the terrorist organization that runs Gaza launched more than 4,000 rockets at Israeli population centers, though many fell short of their target and landed locally, causing Palestinian fatalities and injuries.
