Kathy,

Thank you for your email. Are you suggesting that the murder of Jews on
American soil constitutes legitimate criticism of Israel?

Also, nobody is attacking universities for criticizing Israel. A small
number of universities are being penalized for failing to self-regulate
attacks on Jewish students, faculty, and staff. Universities that have
successfully given their Jewish students equal protection under the law
have not been penalized. If you'd like to learn more, I encourage you to
read Harvard's own investigation of antisemitism on campus
<https://5a55e4ca.streaklinks.com/Cb7GUGu9Paw6iBM31AXpRt3S/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.harvard.edu%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2025%2F04%2FFINAL-Harvard-ASAIB-Report-4.29.25.pdf>
to
understand the context for what is happening there.

Re your final comment: Thank you for making my point. Perhaps it would have
been more accurate for me to say that GRALTA promotes monsterization of
Jews instead of demonization.
