America’s college campuses have been experiencing a sharp spike in anti-Semitism in recent months. And not just against the state of Israel in the form of BDS (the reality-free, anti-Israel, economic campaign: Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions). Jewish students themselves are reporting increased harassment, as this documentary illustrates ~
Crossing the Line 2′ is a new documentary that exposes the rise of anti-Semitic activity on North American university campuses. This virulent anti-Semitism is disguised as opposition to Israel’s policies, but it calls for Israel’s destruction and threatens Jews on campus.
In a nationwide survey, more than half of self-identified Jewish students attending U.S. colleges reported suffering incidents of anti-Semitism on their campuses in the last school year.
Sadly, as an April 15th article in Commentary Magazine explains ~
…so long as support for a movement that singles out the one Jewish state in the world and its supporters for discriminatory treatment and opprobrium is not merely tolerated as an opinion but treated as a reasonable point of view about which decent people may differ, we can’t be surprised that Jew hatred is being normalized.
