Its phenomenon seems to be taking on dimensions blacklisted in the US of those who criticize Israel for the war with Hamas.
After the Powerful CEOs demand to reveal names of Harvard students who signed anti-Israel letter on the new war conflict in the Middle East, one professor of law from the University of California, Berkeley, urges law firms not to hire students who have made anti-Israel comments.
Steven Davidoff Solomon, a professor specializing in business and financial law, wrote in one article fthe Wall Street Journal that law firm Winston & Strawn did the right thing when it revoked a hire for a NYU law students, who publicly condemned Israel for going to war with the Palestinians after Hamas attacks on the Jewish state.
“Legal employers in the hiring process should do what Winston & Strawn did: treat these law students as adults. If a student advocates hatred, dehumanization, or anti-Semitism, don’t hire them,” Solomon wrote. “When students face consequences for their actions, they are punished.”
In the Harvard University, the open letter of student organizations criticizing Israel as “solely responsible” for the war sparked a public confrontation that took on political and social dimensions. THE billionaire Bill Ackman he requested that the names of the students who signed the letter be made public so that he and other CEOs would not “hire them by mistake.”
“Anti-Semitic behavior is nothing new on college campuses”Solomon wrote in the Wall Street Journal, even claiming that Berkeley law students from the Palestine Justice Initiative pressured other student organizations to pass a bylaw that would bar supporters of Israel from speaking at university events.
“Berkeley students’ behavior is part of broader anti-Jewish attitude on college campuseswhich made last week’s massacre possible,” wrote Solomon, who has taught at Berkeley since 2014, adding: “It’s a shame and it’s been tolerated for far too long.”
