Jews hate it when the true facts about them are publicized.
Cornell University is set to host a panel—on the holiest day of
the year for Jewish students—featuring a professor who compared
the Jewish state to Nazi Germany, claiming that Palestinians in
the Hamas-controlled Gaza strip are living in an "extermination
camp, run by Jews."
The Cornell Institute for Comparative Modernities panel, which
is titled "Palestine and Indigenous North America," is the final
event in a series about "Settler Colonialism, Sovereignty,
Apartheid." The panel includes Cornell American Studies
professor Eric Cheyfitz, who has compared Israel to Nazi
Germany, and University of Kansas professor Robert Warrior, a
vocal proponent of the anti-Israel boycott movement, who claimed
that Israel "illegally confiscates Palestinian lands, it
literally blows up Palestinian homes, house by house."
The event comes as Jews on college campuses are facing increased
incidents of anti-Semitism, with the federal government
investigating allegations of anti-Jewish harassment at multiple
schools, including the University of Southern California and the
University of Vermont.
The event will take place on Oct. 5, which falls on Yom
Kippur—precluding many Jewish students and community members
from attending. Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year for
Jews during which they are required to fast and refrain from
working.
"The terrible ironies of history: Gaza has become an
extermination camp, run by Jews," Cheyfitz, the Cornell
professor, wrote on Twitter in 2014.
Cheyfitz equated Gaza, the Palestinian territory that Israel
withdrew from in 2005 and which is controlled by the Hamas-led
government, to the Warsaw Ghetto under Nazi Germany.
He also described Israel as a "terrorist organization,
projecting its crimes on the defenders of human rights," and
claimed "Apartheid Israel is in its death throes. The symptoms:
Violence, in its desperation, is all Zionism can offer the
world."
The panel seeks to draw comparisons between Palestinians and
colonialized groups, while discussing "settler colonialism and
the comparative context of Palestine," according to an event
description. It is part of a yearlong series of panel
discussions.
Cornell did not respond to a request for comment.
