Do you know any Israelis? What makes you think Israelis are behind this?


Are suggesting that average Israelis do not support the pressure campaign against universities, even those who generally support Israel’s actions in Gaza? Seems plausible, I haven’t seen any polling about that.

If you are suggesting that Israeli politicians are not involved with American Israel supporters who are advocating a strict crackdown on speech at universities I don’t think that is plausible. We know there is communication between the military and some influential American Israel supporters.


I am suggesting that average Israelis citizens are not involved in campaigns against American universities.


Got it. Makes sense to me.

How on earth did you come to the conclusion that this person is "affiliated with Israel"? Surely not because their username is Moshe, right?
