MY SAY: THE MOTTO OF THE HILLEL ORGANIZATIONS ON CAMPUS “I AM FOR MYSELF SORT OF”
Are you appalled as I am by the escalating demonstrations of lies and libel against Israel in American campuses? One might have thought that the Hillel, the Foundation for Jewish Campus Life would be a haven for Jewish students who feel besieged by the bias and hatred. Well, in what amounts to fraud against real supporters of Israel who contribute to Hillel,a growing number of Hillel chapters’ leaders at top universities co-sponsor events with vicious anti-Israel groups and enable J Street’s Israel-bashing events presented to large numbers of Jewish students.Consequently, a growing number of well meaning, impressionable, young Jews are becoming alienated from Israel and many turn into anti-Israel activists.
There is an excellent film in production documenting this travesty which will be made public very soon. However,Hillel is currently in the process of selecting a new national President/CEO. This is a key position. Getting influential pro-Israel people in the Jewish community, to use their influence and to demand that Hillel nominate a President who will change Hillel’s dangerous course. Their involvement will ensure the choice of an effective pro-Israel president who can halt and reverse this situation.
Stay tuned.
