Socialist student team says it’s never concerned
One graffitied” Clean Palestine” on the Golda Meir Library at the University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee.
The theft occurred on Saturday. Students for a Democrat Society and other organizations have pressed for Meir’s label to be dropped. She led Israel as prime minister from 1969 to 1974. and attended the public school.
According to Fox 6’s report,” two people allegedly threw an object through a first-floor glass and graffitied the building’s outside.” Foam paint on the east wing of the collection reads’ complimentary Palestine.'”
The school is also looking into the event despite the fact that it did not blame SDS.
” SDS has no role in this incident”, according to a statement by the party on Instagram. It called the death “miniscule” when compared to what it calls Jewish murder.
The declaration read,” Dss or any other organization cannot control the person’s responses to the tower being dedicated to a racist, Zionist battle criminal.”
The group wrote on Instagram that” the university continues to ignore the students ‘ demands,” adding that this and further escalation by community members is not surprising.
” A broken glass and some’ graffiti’ is negligible relative to the neighborhoods, schools, hospitals, places of worship destroyed and 30, 000 lives lost in Palestine at the hands of the murderous settler’ Israel [, ] ‘ all funded by our own state”, the team wrote.
It reiterated its requirements, including the removal of Meir’s title and a withdrawal from “weapon companies” which it says “aid the Arab murder in ‘ Israel.'”
It demands that the school stop sending students to Israel for study abroad. The party also rallied outside Chancellor Mark Mone’s home next Thursday, according to Instagram posts.
Prior to the advocacy campaign to oust Meir, there was a “prayer and ceremony” and the creating of the names of the “martyrs of Palestine” on the walls of the collection.
” Meir was a Zionist known for her crimes against Palestine”, one listener declared.
But Yaakov Menken, a priest, criticized the group’s states in earlier remarks to The Fix.
The petition “certainly has nothing to do with Golda Meir,” who famously said,” We will only have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.” Hamas is now using kids to defend their violent terror operations from reduction, so nothing has changed”, Menken said.
The Coalition for Jewish Values ‘ managing director also questioned the completeness of the name” Palestine.”
From the moment of the Arab Talmud to the 1940s, when the Palestine Post was the English-language Jewish report that is still published as the Jerusalem Post, Menken said,” For 2, 000 times, the only people who were called Palestinians were Jews.”
The Holy Land of the Jews, a place with at least six indigenous labels identified in the Bible, has never been more than a German colonial name.
