CUNY “assigned its chief diversity officer, Saly Abd Alla, the former civil rights director of CAIR’s Minnesota chapter, to investigate an email sent by Kingsborough Community College (KCC) professor Jeffrey Lax, accusing its president of anti-Zionist antisemitic discrimination.”
Lax’s reaction was precise and succinct: “We don’t want Jews here. That’s the message that it sends.” According to the Daily Caller, “he noted that Alla is in charge of overseeing all discrimination investigations at the ‘single largest urban university in the country,’ which encompasses 25 campuses and close to 300,000 students. ‘When you have someone from CAIR leading a discrimination office throughout the university, you are the biggest cause of the antisemitism.’”
