The president of the UC Santa Cruz Jewish Student Union (JSU) was warned to abstainâ€from voting earlier this week on a pro-BDS resolution because he was “elected with a Jewish agenda.â€
JNS.org reports that the incident occurred prior to a vote by the council on an earlier Israel divestment bill. On Tuesday, the UCSC student council voted 28 for and five against, with seven abstaining, to reinstate a divestment resolution that had been vetoed in 2014.
In a text message sent to President Daniel Bernstein prior to that vote, the sender wrote,
“You will be abstaining, as the president of JSU that is the right thing... There was also a comment tonight that you were elected by a..hmm [I don't know] if these are the right words but let’s say…a Jewish agenda."
Bernstein responded on Facebook:
“The implication that I, as a Jewish student and leader in the Jewish community, should not be allowed to vote on an issue that so deeply impacts the Jewish community, and that I should abstain because I cannot be trusted due to an alleged, ‘Jewish agenda,’ echoes the racism Jews have faced all over the world throughout our history.â€
“I am calling on the leadership at UC Santa Cruz, from the student level on up to start taking concrete action to get the anti-Semitism at this campus under control."
JNS reports that this is just the latest incident of anti-Semitism involving a student at a California school: "In February, UCLA student Rachel Beyda was asked if her Jewishness could be a 'conflict of interest' when she applied to be a member of the student judicial board. A similar incident also took place at Stanford University this year, when student senate candidate Molly Horwitz’s Jewish background was called into question."

The “Nazi poop” perp was apparently a black college student who was mad at Jewish students at Mizzou.
Somehow that was lost in the reportage.
Jews will be the first target of the Muslims once they are here in appropriate numbers. Perhaps then they will see their blind support for Obama was their downfall.
Liberals belong in cages. Now or later.
Like that is really going to happen on a 100% liberal-leftist campus. They are the home to anti-Semitism!
UC Santa Cruz is crap.
Sounds like the sender might be Eric Cartman.
Disenfranchise the Jews. Somebody else started down that road in the 1930’s.
With locks.
How long could a German have gone along with the agenda of the Third Reich and still be considered a “good German?”
How long can US citizens continue to tolerate what we are becoming before they are complicit in it?
Its just a little “Juden raus!” It cannot hurt.
Sentential Cage Theory
Get a cage
Put the liberal in the cage
WELD THE DOOR SHUT
Walk away.
Damn spell check
EXISTENTIAL
Then these precious snowflakes should divest themselves of their cell phones. Motorola laid the groundwork for cellphone technology as we know it in WWII, but by the late 1940’s Israeli techs made the initial improvements on it, which ultimately led to them to be technically and economically feasible. And G-D forbid if any of them or their loved ones need a pacemaker or other serious medical procedures, being that the true blue Jew haters they are, FUHGEDABOUTIT!
Yes. I like that better than a lock.
I told you about that really nice Jewish kid I met in Manhattan at a seminar. He said there were only eight people involved in the Paris attack and I told him he knows that’s not true.
He said he understood both sides in the Israel/Palestine conflict.
I told him all the kindness in the world wont change most enemies.
He’s young and idealistic, but I dont want to die in NYC from a “refugee”.
finally a BDSer outs itself as anti-Jewish. They normally pretend BDS is only about Israel.
are you kidding? and all this nonsense about black safe space.
because we crazy whites are having gang shootouts every day and are very dangerous /s
Now the LW is going after the Jews again. Good Lord
Not only should he NOT abstain from the vote he should not abstain with flair and panache....
The “students at UCSC need to quickly take a course in maturity....Good Grief Charlie Brown, these nitwits are supposed to be engaged in “higher education”.....Naivete
should be their masters degree....they could pass without a test!!!!
