  3. Quoting Eviatar Rubin, a student, who spoke at the May 21 protest in Antin Square against the war and the killing of innocent people in Gaza:

    […] Since the beginning of the war, over 50,000 people have already been murdered in Gaza, when we know that at least 80% of them are civilians. This is without mentioning the destruction of infrastructure, homes, hospitals and schools and the massive starvation. This is a concentration camp where systematic and murderous extermination is taking place. And Tel Aviv University, which enjoys pretending to be 'opposition to the regime,' remains silent.

    Rubin contends that Tel Aviv University displays hypocrisy by advocating for academic freedom and democratic values when its own interests are at stake, yet remains silent or actively suppresses opposition to Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.

    Beyond mere silence, the institution actively suppresses dissent by relocating student protests, excluding activists like David Margalit from campus, and pressuring faculty against speaking on topics deemed outside the consensus.

    The university’s partnerships with military industries and government entities make it complicit in the ongoing military operations, which is even worse.

  4. #Israel / On how Israeli academics lead way in advocating 'process of extermination' of Palestinians (analysis by Nadav Rapaport)

    Several prominent Israeli academics have advocated for extreme measures against Palestinians in #Gaza since October 2023. Uzy Raby, a history professor at Tel Aviv University, called for "a process of starvation or a process of extermination" for those who don't evacuate northern Gaza, arguing that conflict in the Middle East requires a special "Middle Eastern spice." Harel Chorev supported forcibly displacing civilians from northern Gaza, while Eyal Zisser urged to "occupy Gaza now." Benny Morris controversially suggested dropping a nuclear bomb on Iran. These scholars often justify their positions by claiming, as Avi Bareli put it, that Palestinians are "a society that worships death," or by echoing Eliahu Yusian's view that there are "no innocent civilians" in Gaza. Critics argue these academics are promoting far-right ideologies and potential war crimes while marginalizing dissenting voices in Israeli academia.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    […] Apart from urging for more potential war crimes and for the occupation of the Gaza Strip, these academics are additionally advancing a seemingly dehumanisation campaign against Palestinians, Arabs and Muslims.
