Antisemitism in America: My Campus Tour
(Wall Street Journal) Bernard-Henri Levy - How should we respond, a brilliant and distressed student of Ohio University asks me, to professors who tell us that Israel is a "colonial creation"? You need to interrupt them. Impeach them. You need to treat them the way the students of May 1968 treated the most reactionary teachers. Explain to these ignoramuses that half of the Jewish founders of Israel were indigenous and that, if the others did indeed often come from Europe, they weren't conquerors but refugees - escapees whom Europe regarded as garbage. The writer is a French philosopher, war reporter, documentary-maker, and author of more than 30 books.
