Teacher's Anti-Israel Resolution Angers Many

Posted on Wednesday, January 17 at 14:56 by jensonj
The motion put forward by Jason Kunin, an English teacher and Jewish activist who has frequently criticized Israeli government policies, and Hyssam Hulays, a computer science teacher, decries “Israel’s continued violation of the human rights of Palestinians.” Among other things, the Toronto teachers want the union to develop classroom materials on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and to support an international boycott of Israel. Their motion also calls on the union to press Prime Minister Stephen Harper to criticize Israel’s “aggression” against Gaza and Lebanon, and to end sanctions against the Palestinians’ Hamas government. Neither Kunin nor Hulays returned calls to their schools Wednesday. http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2007/01/17/pf-3395276.html

    They should know by now that any criticism of Isreal, no matter how deserving, is anti-Semitism! The 11th Commandment is "Thou shalt not criticise Isreal"

    ".. have angered Jewish groups .."

    As usual, only the incorporated Zionist lobby groups issue idiotic statements like this when people complain about Israeli war crimes and genocide. I don't see anyone personally defending what these psychopaths get angry about because to do so is like saying you agree with being a racist mass murderer, and no one likes to hang out with racist mass murderers.

    Other than the Zionist press releases, the silence from the Jewish community at large is rather deafening.

    So where's all the anger?
