The Palestine Exception: The crackdown on Israel criticism on US campuses | Fault Lines Documentary


Fault Lines investigates what the crackdown on Palestine advocacy means for academic freedom in the United States.

Doxxing. Blacklists. Terminations. Investigations. Hate mail and death threats. And accusations of anti-Semitism and material support for terrorism. These are some of the ways in which pro-Israel advocacy groups have tried to…

  2. When speaking out against genocide is seen as terrorism you know we have a far right government. Anti-BDS laws and policies are unconstitutional and insane.

  3. This is not surprising. Zionists weaponizing and abusing antiSemitic words to destroy every critique and opponent and Palestinian. Its their SOCIAL TERRORISM. Israel also sent assasinators to some countries to murder oversea Palestinians.

  4. BOYCOTT Columbia University and all other universities that support Israel apartheid and genocide and that did crackdown on Palestinian pro protestors students!! In this day and age, who needs to be in thousands of debt for a university and college education and mostly to fatten the paycheck and enrich the establishments and elites and certain groups of people..when there is NO guarantee a grad can get a good job and earn a good salary and they have to work like a dog or be a corporate slave and when anyone can now just do self learning via books and internet and be their own boss and have freedom and still can earn a living online and even be just as successful and rich as the college grads?? 🙂

  5. I Just want to say that everyone who's speaking outloud about Palestinians, you are TRUE HEROES, you are making a change that we will see it's effect in our near future

  6. Any professional, academic or civic leader who shies away from Deploring, not just Criticising, Israel is a coward who should immediately ask themselves: "What will I say to myself on my DeathBed about how I stood in the face of Oppression and Genocide?"

    Because that day is closer for us all than most of us think.

  7. Israel is a Satanic abomination, driven by bloodlust, murder, rape, theft.
    The abomination among the Nations of the Earth.
    No matter how much they opine – Zionists are NOT the Chosen People; they are a doomed people.
    And they forgot to factor in that the entire world is live-streaming the Genocide, and their lies can no longer control the opinions of the Global Community

  8. Pro-peace is not anti-Semitic. Al Nakba has been ongoing since 1948. Call them out on their hypocrisy. Sue Columbia University that the administration is not taking equal steps to protect you.

  9. "Most people don't know what the ulterior motive for Israel apartheid is."

    "In offering “Israel” unconditional backing to effectively invade and occupy the entirety of the Gaza Strip, despite what officials may say, the United States has long eyed an opportunity to give “Tel Aviv” control over offshore natural gas resources, which, by legal rights, belong to the Palestinian state. This area, known as “The Gaza Marine,” is home to 1 trillion cubic feet of natural gas resources. Although discovered in 2000, “Israel” has never permitted the Palestinian Authority to have access to it, and likewise, the Gaza Strip has long been under an effective maritime and economic blockade, which has prevented it from being developed outside of Israeli control."
    Quote from Global Research article.

  10. All universities only care about their flow of money. They're a business, they're a leech institution. They just want their students to stay longer and pump more and more money into their pockets. They don't care about the safety of their students, or even if they graduate.

  11. The foundations of the State of Israel are based on the denial of equality between all men, and seek to consummate an artificial demographic majority based on ethnic cleansing and apartheid. The world watches with horror as Gaza stopped being a concentration camp and became an extermination camp. 70 percent of Israelis think Netanyahu should be even more aggressive with his ethnic cleansing. Israel has evolved: racism promoted as children has generated a society that is openly satanic.

  12. Oh we see it but we know protest doesn’t solve anything, ur protesting dies out eventually, war is war people are dying all over the world not just . Genocide is happening all over and We can’t do anything but hope for the best

  13. Perhaps they should protest with enlarged photos of the victims on placards.
    That should make it hard to accuse the protestors of Anti-semitic activities.
    And if someone tries to crack down, reverse the argument and call them genocide denier and or islamaphobic. Make the protests even more about the victims and refrain from saying from the river to the sea. Yes the other side says it, but the idea is to take away any fuel for accusations

  14. Israel is a state like every other. Its political leaders are politicians like every other. Criticizing what they do can never be antisemitic. The campaign to make it so is deeply evil and racist. These western hypocrites are all for freedom of speech in their country but you must never use it on Israel’s right wing government. Ridiculous.
