Universities Standing Strong For Academic Freedom and Against Bigotry (running list)

The following is a list of institutions whose presidents or chancellors have publicly rejected the academic boycott of Israel in recent days. The American Council on Education, an umbrella of 1,800 institutions that is widely considered the largest higher education organization in the United States, has condemned the boycott. So has the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities, which has 223 institutional members. The Executive Committee of the Association of American Universities, which represents 62 top institutions in the U.S. and Canada, has also expressed its strong opposition to the boycott, as has the American Association of University Professors, which counts more than 48,000 members. 134 Members of the U.S. House of Representatives have signed a letter condemning the boycott.

(Updated 1:21 p.m. EST, 2/26. Current tally: 250)

In addition, the following institutions’ American Studies programs have withdrawn their membership in the American Studies Association (ASA) following its boycott vote:

Furthermore, the following institutions have flatly denied being institutional members of the ASA, though the organization has listed them as such:

The editorial boards of the following student newspapers have also published editorials condemning the boycott of Israel and hailing their university administrations’ rejection thereof:

With thanks to William A. Jacobson at Legal Insurrection for his diligence.
 
Finally, some sanity.

These universities are some of the most liberal, radical leftist, socialistic, and in many cases anti American institutions in the country. I wonder what the Bowel Dischargers did to piss them off like this?

Is it that they realized that the BDS at its core is ANTI freedom of speech and opinion, and once they are done with Israel, their next target will be to impose their Islamo-Facism on the US educational system?
 
We can only hope, as they have been taking away our freedom inch by inch, unnoticed by most, until just recently.

It's good to see more people standing up against antisemitism. .

and make no mistake -- that is what is behind the boycott despite all the self-serving double talk offered to try to fool people.
 
Yup nobody had any doubt about what's behind the BDS,however it is shameful to see people are actually praising their ignorance out in the open.
 
The Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions National Committee (BNC) warmly welcomes the decision by the Kuwait City Municipality exclude the French company Veolia from a huge solid waste management contract, valued at $750 million, citing the BNC appeal to that affect. Basing its decision on Veolia’s complicity in Israeli projects that violate international law, the municipality also decided to exclude Veolia from “all future projects.” -

Next time, we let the Iraqis take-over Kuwait and stay there... after that, the French sure-as-hell won't join in any Coalition to come to their rescue again... phukk 'em.
 
It took several decades to for BDS to destroy apartheid South Africa.

Israel is following the same road to eventual extinction. ...... :cool:
Only in your dreams...

Jihad is already underway...

Jihad will change everything...

Including the swift loss of any lightweight sympathy that the Palestinians might otherwise attain within The West...

Time's fast-approachin', to choose-up sides...

Europe will not side with the Muslims...

Guaranteed.

Chinese Firms Swoop Into Israel Looking for Tech Investments
TEL AVIV—Chinese investors are pouring millions into Israel-focused, tech-investment funds—as well as launching their own funds and investing directly in Israeli startups—amid a frenzy of tech investment and deal making here.

Yongjin Group Inc., a Chinese equity-investment management and financial- services company, has put between $15 million and $20 million into Israeli venture fund Pitango Venture Capital during the past year, according to people familiar with the matter.

Lenovo Group Ltd. 0992.HK -0.18% , the big Chinese computer maker, meanwhile invested around $10 million in Canaan Partners Israel, a venture fund affiliated with American-based Canaan Partners, in late August.

And Ping An Venture, the venture investment arm of Ping An Insurance (Group) Co.601318.SH +0.07% , one of China's biggest financial conglomerates, in November created a $100 million fund dedicated to U.S. and Israel tech ventures. It has made six investments in Israeli startups so far, said Jiang Zhang, an associate director at Ping An Ventures.

The moves come amid a frenzy of fundraising among Israeli entrepreneurs. Israeli and foreign investors—lured by a drumbeat of stock-market listings and acquisitions among Israeli tech startups—have rushed in. In the first half of 2014, 335 Israeli high-tech companies raised a record $1.6 billion in capital, according to estimates by consultancy IVC Industry Analytics and KMPG. That was 81% higher than in the year-earlier period.

While Israeli, European and American investors have long trawled Israel for tech opportunities, Chinese investors are relatively new here. Industry insiders say so far they have preferred longer-term bets and looked for technology that is already being used back home, or sought investment possibilities there.

"Most of the investments we're seeing are strategic investments and not purely financial ones," said Yoav Sade, a partner in law firm Meitar Liquornik Geva Leshem Tal and vice chairman of the Israel-China Chamber of Commerce.

"Chinese investors would look for tech companies that already have a product and sales with an added value that has to do with China," said Mr. Sade. "Many times the investment contracts include commercialization licenses for operations in China."

In July, Chinese venture fund SAIF Partners participated in a $15 million funding round in app-monetization company SupersonicAds Ltd. It was SAIF's first investment in an Israeli company, according to Ben Ng, a partner at SAIF Partners, who joined Supersonic's board following the investment.

At the same time, Supersonic announced plans to expand its business in China, Japan and India, saying it intended to open offices in Beijing, Tokyo and Bangalore.

"For the last two years, SAIF has been looking to expand its portfolio with a cross-border view. We're looking at companies in Israel" and Silicon Valley, said Mr. Ng.

Ping An and Chinese venture investor China Broadband Capital Partners LP took part in a $85-million, pre-initial public offering funding round in adware company IronSource Ltd. IronSource launched its Chinese branch with offices in Beijing this week.

Despite these direct investments, much of the early money is being funneled through Israeli funds. Chinese Internet-security company Qihoo 360 Technology Co. QIHU +1.65% Ltd. and web search giant Baidu Inc. BIDU +0.24% have both invested in Carmel Ventures, an Israel venture fund, according to people familiar with the matter, with Qihoo putting in about $10 million in early 2014. Qihoo has also invested money with Jerusalem Venture Partners, according to people familiar with the matter.

It took several decades to for BDS to destroy apartheid South Africa.

Israel is following the same road to eventual extinction. ...... :cool:
Only in your dreams...

Jihad is already underway...

Jihad will change everything...

Including the swift loss of any lightweight sympathy that the Palestinians might otherwise attain within The West...

Time's fast-approachin', to choose-up sides...

Europe will not side with the Muslims...

Guaranteed.

Europe just acts like they care about the Paleshitians to show the invading Muslim masses they actually give a shit, and to throw the wild dogs a bone. That's it. That will come to an abrupt end very soon.
 
Łooks like the Bowel Dischargers are reallly putting a dent on the Israeli economy! Allah Akbar!

How Israel is rewriting the future of cybersecurity and creating the next Silicon Valley - Feature - TechRepublic

The world's most important tech companies run Israeli research centers, including Cisco, Microsoft, Google, Apple, IBM, Oracle, SAP, EMC, Motorola, HP, Facebook, and eBay. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer famously said that Microsoft was an Israeli company almost as much as an American company since Microsoft has so many workers in Israel and the work they are doing is so important to the company's future.

Intel and IBM opened research centers in Israel in the 1970s and hired lots of Israeli engineers. More often, tech giants have bolstered their presence in Israel by acquiring startups. Cisco alone has purchased at least 10 Israeli startups (that we know about), including Intucell in January 2013 for $475 million. In July 2013, Google bought the popular Waze mapping software for $1 billion, shining an even brighter spotlight on Israeli startups.

Israel has been dubbed "The Startup Nation" because it has the highest density of startups per capita in the world--one for every 1,844 citizens (or 2.5 times the U.S. rate). More Israeli companies are listed on the NASDAQ than from all European companies combined. Israel ranks third in the world for venture capital availability and second in the world in the availability of qualified scientists and engineers. Yet, this is a tiny country with roughly the same land mass as New Jersey.

The story of how this undersized, continually-threatened nation of 7.5 million people--less than the population of New York City--has become one of the pre-eminent players in the tech world is complicated. Plenty of journalists, researchers, and government officials from across the globe have probed this issue and argued with each other about the genesis of Israel's technological success.

"We were asked by Deutche Telekom to analyze Android to tell whether it is secure," said Dr. Yuval Elovici, Director of BGU's Deutsche Telekom Laboratories and a Professor in BGU's Department of Information Systems Engineering. Dr. Elovici's team of graduate students concluded that Android was "relatively secure." One of the big weaknesses they pinpointed was that Android updates can be used to hijack a device or inject code.
 
It took several decades to for BDS to destroy apartheid South Africa.

Ha ha ha. BDS is going backwards and almost outlawed in the US, Mr ISIS cheerleader. Ha ha ha.

As a Muslim, Sunni Troll cannot handle the fact that Israel is such a successful country and that so many Muslim countries are complete failures.

:cool:

It's been predicted they will roam like wild jackasses in the desert, at war with everybody, including themselves. If that doesn't describe the fruits of Islam today, I don't know what does.
 
Praise to the Allah, where would Israel be without the BDS? Ha ha ha.
