CSUN is sponsoring an infamous anti-semitic speaker, Ilan Pappe, who fosters hate against Israelis and Israel. He will be speaking at CSUN on President's Day, February 20th at 4:00pm. Several Jewish groups, including Stand With Us, and others, will be organizing protests. Pappe has written a book called "Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine" which is totally based on falsehoods. Ethnic cleansing of Palestine was done by Arabs who cleansed anyone not Muslim. Israel has a diverse population of Muslims, Christians and Jews.
Another individual who also fosters the same kind of hatred is a math professor at CSUN named David Klein. Both of these men were born to Jewish parents, but are willing to spout lies about Israel to further their own ends. CSUN seems intent on spreading hatred toward Israel, and its people. When questioned about an anti-semitic web site of Professor Klein which is on the CSUN servers paid for by taxpayers, the then President of CSUN replied that it was an expression of protected academic free speech.
The following letter from an organization called "The Amcha Initiative" whose mission is to protect Jewish students on campuses, will explain the situation with Ilan Pappe:
