U of Manchester to decide whether to extend "twinning" with jihadist university

In 2007, University of Manchester students voted to "twin" with An Najah University of Ramallah, a hotbed of Hamas terrorism.

Already at that time An Najah had hosted an exhibition celebrating the Sbarro's pizza shop suicide bombing.

Has the twinning made An Najah more peaceful and supportive of a two-state solution? Of course not.

Here are some of the stories I've reported about An Najah University since then:

• Professors from the school presented at a conference celebrating the poetry of Moammar Qaddafi,
• One professor posted some antisemitic material on his own website.
• One of their lecturers went on TV to say that Moses led Muslims out of Egypt to liberate Palestine.
• Another of their professors, a "human rights" activist, posted a celebration of a Hamas terrorist on his Facebook page.

Also:

• Students at he university held a violent protest to stop the US consul from even visiting. Ironically, when security pushed back, the complained about their freedom of speech being violated.
• Their Islamic Bloc student organization openly supports Hamas terror. Their logo is to the left.
• That same pro-Hamas bloc gained 33 seats on the student council last year, a little behind Fatah.
• Here is a video that the Hamas bloc released of students who were "martyred." Notice how many of them have guns.

• The header on the school's Islamic Bloc Facebook page celebrates the kidnappers and murderers of the three Israeli teens.

TStarting this Friday, the students of Manchester will vote whether to extend their partnership with a university that has been the source and cheerleader of numerous terror attacks. It will also allow them to keep this only political poster visible in the Student Union building.

There is a (small) chance to defeat the motion to extend the partnership between Manchestor and Najah Terror U. The Jewish student association would prefer a three way partnership with a different Palestinian school, an Israeli university and Manchester. They also want this incendiary sign to be removed. 

Let's hope that the students will choose co-existence over supporting terror.
