The Jewish community urgently needs your support as the national hate group Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) prepares to host their upcoming annual conference titled “Cultivating the Future: A United Student Movement” in at UCLA in Los Angeles, California, from February 17-19.
The name of this conference appears to welcome students from all backgrounds and beliefs with the goal of creating a more prosperous future but this couldn’t be further from the truth. The National SJP Conference is a hateful, closed conference that discriminates against Jewish students, demonizes Israel’s supporters, and fuels antisemitism. As one of the nation’s most-bigoted student organizations, SJP’s leaders are deeply committed to fueling Jew hatred and derailing America’s relationship with Israel — our one and only reliable ally in the Middle East.
Countless articles and studies have exposed SJP members actively calling for violence against Israel. They are intimately connected to Palestinian terrorist organizations, including Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). On college campuses throughout America, SJP chapters have gone so far as to host convicted terrorists like Rasmea Odeh, who was directly involved in the 1969 Jerusalem Supermarket Bombing that murdered two students at Hebrew University.
Members of SJP further broadcast their hatred for Israel online by glorifying terrorists from George Habash, former General Secretary of the PFLP, to Leila Khaled, who aided in the TWA Flight 840 hijacking against Israel. They glorify these terrorists by putting them on their apparel and lauding them on social media platforms.
One thing is clear: when SJP chapters grows in membership, antisemitic incidents on campus skyrocket.
According to a Brandeis University study, the presence of an SJP chapter on campus is one of the strongest predictors of hostility toward Israel and Jews. The campus antisemitism watchdog group, AMCHA Initiative, further discovered that antisemitic activity is eight times more likely at universities where anti-Israel groups like SJP are present.
Enough is enough. We must not allow anti-Israel hate groups to perpetuate Jew hatred while indoctrinating the next generation of leaders to despise one of the world's most progressive and inclusive countries and the only Jewish State in the world.
