Chi protesta contro gli accordi tra l’Università Milano Bicocca e otto atenei israeliani

Il gruppo studentesco Cambiare Rotta denuncia le partnership e ne chiede l’immediata sospensione. Tre di questi atenei sono infatti citati nel dossier “Advice on the collaborations with Israeli universities” dell'Erasmus University di Rotterdam dove viene evidenziato il loro il coinvolgimento diretto o indiretto con l’occupazione dei Territori palestinesi.

#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.

My college roommate is now the President of Ben-Gurion University in Beersheva. He showed extraordinary leadership standing up to the Netanyahu government, and now he is mourning the dead while protecting Arab students from backlash.

On the Front Lines, an Israeli University Grieves and Readies for War

At Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, dorms turned into barracks and medical students manned emergency rooms. Dozens from the university community were killed in the Hamas attacks.

My heart expanded a little today seeing my talented student Aviv Mokady giving his first talk to the highly interdisciplinary crowd of the school of brain and cognitive sciences at #BenGurionUniversity

Aviv studies how our #selfConcept drives our behaviors and the role of the #reward circuitry in these processes.

Stay tuned for future works and for our #SPSP poster presentation!
