Portugal on NTNU: Anti-semitismo nórdico

Norway used to be near invisible. If people knew of us it would be for something nice, like the christmas tree we deliver to the city of London each year in recognition of England’s aid to Norway during the war. Today, thanks to an energetic anti-Israel lobby, Norway is becoming known for bashing Israel, while disregarding the vices of her neighbors. Here is a post on Anti-semitismo nordico from faraway Portugal. A full five commentarios even.

A posição anti-israelita do governo norueguês é bem conhecida, pelo que não é de estranhar que a Universidade de Ciência e Tecnologia de Trondheim (NTNU) tenha decidido ser anfitriã de um seminário Anti-Israel e para o efeito convidar proeminentes palestrantes a quem que lhes é reconhecido o ódio pela única democracia do médio-oriente.

As palestras serão encabeçadas por conhecido inimigos do sionismo e de Israel, tais como: Ilan Pappe, Moshe Zuckerman e Stephen Walt, bem como académico locais. O alvo dos organizadores que assinaram um pedido de boicote a Israel, parece ser que, a administração da universidade proclame um boicote oficial a todas as academias israelitas nos próximos meses.

No seu blog, o reitor da universidade Torbjørn Digernes, saúda o comité de organização deste seminário e permanece convencido que esta série de seminários são “iniciativas louváveis”. Os estudantes, staff e cidadãos comuns parecem não concordar.

Estão convidados a escrever uma nota de protesto ao reitor da NTNU nos comentários do seu blog.
