Campus Reform ^ | December 7, 2018 | Andrew Lawrence

New York University student senators passed a resolution Thursday in support of the university divesting from three companies associated with the Israeli government and instituting a “socially responsible” investment policy.

Israeli-affiliated companies named in the resolution included Caterpillar, General Electric, and Lockheed Martin. Only NYU students were allowed to attend the senate meeting, each senator's vote remained anonymous, and those who wished to address the room were limited to two minutes when speaking. The meeting, which was expected to last for about two hours, was ultimately extended until it spanned nearly three-and-a-half hours.

Jewish students represent around 25% of the student body at NYU. Jewish alumni have given generously to the university. The NYU hospital is named after Robert Tisch, who also co-owned the NY football Giants. Jewish alumni need to tell the administrators they will close the wallet if the school continues to allow rampant anti-Semitism at NYU. Besides the Muslims who else was all on board with the BDS resolution, the Black Student Union.

We are in the 70th year of Nakba, Israel’s ethnic cleansing which has resulted in the murder, expulsion, and displacement of more than a million Palestinians," the Black Student Union at NYU said in a statement supporting the BDS resolution. "We would like to formally endorse the Palestinian civil society call for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS), as our struggle and the struggle of the Palestinians is inextricably linked in the battle against white supremacy.

You know what would help? Obamacare for illegals. Reparations. Giving away all possessions. Pouring gasoline all over oneself and lighting it on fire. /s

Well, I see the Black Student Union is delighted and totally uniformed. I also see that rules were also ignored. Nothing like modern day blacks turning on Jews completely oblivious to the massive aid Jews provided unto to them during the Civil Rights era.

Ah, the old secret ballot by Senate. Young Dems learning young how to avoid taking responsibility for your vote.
