Jewish Brandeis University Refuses To Distance Itself From Islamic Jihad “Nazi-Style” Rally Held On Campus of Palestinian Partner School

From the Free Beacon:

Brandeis University is facing criticism from students and faculty members after refusing to distance itself from an event recently held on the campus of its Palestinian partner school that critics decried as a “Nazi-style” rally. 

Brandeis, the nation’s most well known Jewish university, partners with the Palestinian Al Quds University, where students held a military rally on Wednesday of last week. 

Groups of Al Quds students dressed in black military gear and armed with automatic weapons marched on the school’s campus while waving flags and raising the traditional Nazi salute, according to pictures first posted by Middle East analyst Tom Gross. 

The rally was organized by the Islamic Jihad’s student faction, which is known to be active on the Al Quds campus. Brandeis, which began partnering with Al Quds in 2003, declined multiple requests for comment on the rally. 

The rally prompted some students and faculty members to express outrage. “It bothers me very much that the school I am attending has a partnership with a school that inherently promotes death to Jews,” said student Eve Herman, who serves as the president of the Brandeis Zionist Alliance.
