About thirty years ago, I and my former wife, who is an alumna of Brandeis University, spent several pleasant summer days at a reunion there. Back then, the school, which has always received enormous financial support from Jewish philanthropists, had a decidedly Jewish and pro-Israeli bent. Sadly, under the absurd "leadership" of its current president, Jehuda Reinharz, Brandeis is now immersed in a "let's bash Israel" milieu. Recently hired faculty members include Palestinian Jihadist, Khalil Shikaki and Osama bin Laden admirer, Natana J. Delong-Bas, who has declared: "The future of Wahabbi Islam is one of hope." A virulently anti-Israel art exhibition in the Brandeis University Library, a linkage with the Palestinian terrorist sanctuary...Al-Quds University, and the recent kow-towing to the anti-Semitic, Israel-hating Jimmy Carter's demands that Professor Dershowitz be banned from directly confronting him in a face-to-face debate, all are indicative of the fact that Brandeis University has dramasically changed for the worse.
Today, I read a report that a number of formerly large donors to Brandeis are following the advice of the Zionist Organization of America and ending their financial support. Great! I approve of that 100%. Yehuda Reinharz should be removed from his job!
