A British university is responding to complaints that Jews were barred from a lecture alleging Israel was intentionally undermining the fertility of Palestinians.
It was only a matter of time before the real colours of Palestinian apartheid were shown in the West. The Palestinian “resistance,” after delegitimizing the State of Israel and disparaging the Jewish people, has the jihadist ambition of obliterating Israel entirely, as is enunciated in the PA, Hamas and Fatah Charters.
PA leader Mahmoud Abbas has long indicated that not one Israeli will live in a Palestinian state; the latest accusation against Israel intentionally undermining the fertility of Palestinians is akin to the historic blood libel.
Yesterday Jihad Watch reported that Palestinian students honor as a “role model” Dalal Mughrabi, the worst jihad mass murderer in Israel’s history. Mughrabi even has a women’s community center named after her.
“Jews reportedly barred from UK campus lecture charging Israel with ‘reproductive sabotage’ of Palestinians,” by Cnaan Liphshiz, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, January 19, 2018:
(JTA) — A British university is responding to complaints that Jews were barred from a lecture alleging Israel was intentionally undermining the fertility of Palestinians.
A spokesman for the University of Warwick, located 90 miles northwest of London, said Wednesday’s 17 event “was organized by group of researchers and students” and “was not organized by the University.”
The university has received a complaint that at least three Jews were barred from the event, which was advertised as open to the public, the spokesman also said.
“A complaint has been made to the University about this event which we are now considering and which we will respond to,” university spokesman Tom Frew told JTA.
David Collier, a journalist and blogger on anti-Semitism, said he and two other Jews, Mandy Blumenthal and Yochy Davis, were stopped at the entrance to the lecture room by Lisa Tilley, a member of the faculty at Warwick’s School of Politics and International Relations. He wrote that she asked to see their identity cards and refused to admit them into the room after inspecting them.
Contacted by JTA, Tilley said the event in question was attended by “many members of the Jewish community at Warwick.”
According to the Warwick University’s Jewish/Israeli society, the event had a turnout of 10 to 15 people, including two members of that society, and did not feature anti-Semitic rhetoric, the Jewish Chronicle reported. Tilley wrote in an email to JTA: “I did not personally ask Mr. Collier or his companions for ID.”
“All allegations of anti-Semitism in relation to me, the speaker, or anyone present are completely false.” She added Collier’s “physical and verbal intimidation tactics were very much on display on Wednesday.”
The event was a lecture by Sigrid Vertommen, a researcher from the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at King’s College London. The invitation to the event said that Israel’s policy of subsidizing multiple fertilization procedures for its citizens is “primarily aimed to serve the reproductive rights of its Jewish population at the expense of the indigenous Palestinian population.”
Israel has 1.2 million Arab Palestinian citizens, who are entitled to the same medical benefits as all other citizens.
“Rather than understanding Israel’s fertility policies in terms of rights, choice, peace and reconciliation,” the invitation to the event read, “it will propose a reproductive sabotage framework.”
Vertommen did not reply to a JTA request for comment.
Shimon Samuels, the director of international relations for the Simon Wiesenthal Center, said the charge that Israel would “sabotage” Palestinians’ fertility recalled the “blood libel” historically leveled at Jews. The charge betrayed an “anti-Semitic bias” that contributes to making the University of Warwick “the leading university in the United Kingdom in terms of denying Israel’s right to exist,” he told JTA…..

Error and deliberate falsehoods can only be promoted through censorship, since in a ‘free-speech’ society, there is no hindrance to saying what censors do not want others to hear.

Phil Copson says
What “indigenous Palestinians” would those be, then ? The Israelis are indigenous to that part of Palestine, the “Palestinians” are recently-arrived squatters.
Would be interesting to see how many could actually demonstrate any connection to the area further back than their parents or grand-parents….
RonaldB says
How interesting.
An event featuring 15 or so people in attendance included two representatives of the “Jewish/Israeli Society” ?????? described as “many” representatives of the Jewish community. The presenters said Israel was promoting the birth of Jews, which by definition meant it was against the birth of Muslims, but those observations were not anti-Semitic. The medical measures promoting the birth of Jews were available to the Muslims living as Israeli citizens.
A member of the faculty checks the IDs of people who wished to attend the presentation and denied them entrance, presumably because the rejected people might ask questions skeptical of the presented opinions. Schools extend tenure privileges to faculty in order to promote maximum freedom of thought and research.
It sounds like the University of Warwick is a good place for parents to steer their college-age children away from, unless they aspire to placing their children as seat-warming bureaucrats for a Soros-funded NGO far removed from any accountability. I, in fact, have a relative would would simply love a job with that description, so maybe I’ll suggest he emigrate to Warwick.
The “Jewish/Israeli Society” sounds interesting. I would like to hear more of it. They apparently pursue the interfaith philosophy by providing cover for a Muslim claim of medical suppression of Muslims by the Israeli government.
Jayell says
Muslims complain that Israel is promoting the birth of Jews? So are they going to sue the Jews for some kind of breach of copyright for stealing their idea, because we all know that this is exactly what muslims are up to all around the world.

Recently I started to watch a rather long youtube video about the alleged satanic practices of the UK royal family, and Prince William as the antichrist. I came across parts I didn’t think could possibly true but watched on with my ‘falsehood’ antenna finely tuned.
I stopped watching it when the commentator tried to tell us that the ‘Zionists’ were behind the ‘taking of the land from the Philistines, known as Palestinians, to give it to the Jews in 1948.
Surely it is revisionist history like this which leads to persecution like that described above.
I found one video quite by accident. How many others have watched and believed it?
LeftisruiningCanada says
What? Something on youtube isn’t true?
StellaSaidSo says
According to some, ‘the evil Zionists’ are responsible for every calamity, including bad weather. There are scores of propagandist videos like this one, the point of which is not to inform viewers about the antics of the royals, but to sow and nurture the seed of anti-Semitism. Hit the ‘play’ button, and start the clock. It might only be one line, but it will be there. I have no doubt that much of the funding for such ‘programs’ comes from parties who are committed to the destruction of Israel.

What a joke. Palestinians have one of the highest birthrates on the planet thanks to the UNRWA and Western welfare states.
Palestinian ‘refugees’ in 1948: about 800,000
Palestinian ‘refugees’ today: over 10 Million.
Not bad, for victims of ‘genocide’.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Good point.
Major bias alert on this ‘presentation’ at the university of Warwick.
Wonder if there was concern mentioned about muslims trying to outnumber Jews in their own land?
Doubt it. Not only would that be a racist thing to say, but they don’t think Israel is Jewish territory anyway.
Remember: Only Jews commit injustices, and the muslims are ALWAYS the victim.
StellaSaidSo says
The ‘Palestinians’ have always played fast and loose with the definition of ‘refugee’, wrongly including the children and grandchildren of the original ‘refugees’ in the category. In fact, none of the so-called ‘refugees’ ever qualified for refugee status, as they had a home to go to – Transjordan – in 1948. The entire Palestinian ’cause’ is bogus.
Apparently there is no-one at Warwick University who has any knowledge of history.

They breed like cockroaches the world over… but are very violent and completely unproductive. Just an overall NUISANCE to one and all and even to themselves.

Here’s what happens to you in northern Maine if you dare to oppose Islam and stand up for Western civilization, values, and traditions. A Unitarian minister — the Unitarians in my Massachusetts town recently screened a virulently anti-Israel, anti-Semitic pro-BDS film while sporting a “Love Thy Neighbor” sign on their front lawn. These hypocrites are out to silence anyone who opposes their anti-Western, pro-Islamic, globalist agenda. Staunchly denying that one is a “white separatist” will count for nothing with those determined to smear any criticism of Islam as “white separatism”.

UK: Jews barred from campus lecture promoting Palestinian propaganda
……………………..
This overt antisemitism is becoming more blatant all the time. The worst thing is the dhimmi creeps who are enabling this.
hammar says
palestinian propaganda is nothing more than that. Read any Book of the Bible from Genesis to the New Testament and Jerusalem is the Capitol of Israel, Canaan. It will be the altar of the Messiah, the Savior.
The propaganda of islam is just that, nothing but lies and made up stories. The Romans who controlled Canaan hated the countr,. So they called it Syria palestinina. The palestinians are actually Jordan’s who moved their. They are not Hebrews of Canaan.
Jerusalem is the Covenant City. Not the home of palestinians. That’s the whole twist of the palestines.
