  1. 'How do Israeli universities react to this scholasticide? Wind explained: "Not one, not a single one of the Israeli universities' administration has at any point called on the Israeli government to cease the bombing on Palestinian universities and the utter decimation of Palestinian higher education. And this is not coincidental because Israeli universities have not only been, for decades and, by design, pillars of Israeli settler colonial rule and apartheid. Israeli universities are actively sustaining this genocide right now."

    'While Wind's book is new, the author kept reminding the audience that its core findings have already been highlighted for decades by Palestinian scholars. These scholars have also developed the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI), a "road map" for Israeli universities to stop their complicity and for universities internationally to hold them accountable.

    The entire event, including the contributions during the panel discussion, can be rewatched in this video.'

  2. Waarom een academische boycott van Israëlische universiteiten?

    De PACBI oproep is expliciet van Israëlische instituten, niet van individuen en valt binnen de academische vrijheid. Hier meer informatie (uit 2015) over de boycott: bdsnederland.nl/dialoog-versus

  3. No Palestinians Involved: An Open Letter to My Colleagues

    "More pressing than the past however—the Dan David Prize after all “celebrates scholars and practitioners whose work illuminates the human past and can enrich public discourse with a deeper understanding of history”—is the future. Tel Aviv University, especially its engineers, information technologists, and Orientalists, is tightly enmeshed in the war-making and intelligence-gathering apparatus of the State of Israel. Its faculty and students collaborate in an official capacity, to give one pressing example, with Elbit Systems, the most high-tech and wide-reaching weapons manufacturer in Israel, producer of the drones which terrorize Palestinians on a daily basis. Needless to say, the University like all academic and cultural institutions in Israel, is the subject of an international boycott.

    Last year, on the same day that the Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was murdered by an Israeli sniper in Jenin, the Dan David Prize winners were paraded on stage in an extravagant ceremony just fifty miles west on the grounds of Tel Aviv University."
