A pre-Hanukkah celebration created by the Hillel club at York University in Toronto was disrupted by anti-Jewish rallies in Vari Hall in campus.
At first, SAIA (Students against Israeli Apartheid) were holding a silent protest. What started out as a peaceful protest, ended up with students from the club blocking the hall ways and chanting "Apartheid" continuously.
The anti-Jewish protesters then began to chant slogans and hand out leaflets right near the Hillel event, according to the report.
“What was planned as a silent protest turned into chants and the blocking of the hallways,” Hillel said on its Facebook page. “While Hillel prides itself on promoting respectful discourse on all campuses, we find tactics of harassment and intimidation to be intolerable.”
I don't think this is an issues of Arab vs Israel anymore. This is an issue of Islam vs Judaism. This antisemitism is nothing new at York. I have seen this happening before. Apparently, if you are not Jewish, you can celebrate any religious event you want, with all the freedom.
What is a sham is that most of these students chanting "Apartheid" do not even know what it means. These guys are not any better than Tumblr Social Justice Warriors. They scream "Discrimination" as if they are being victimized by everyone, not realizing that their antisemitic ideologies are what's wrong.
