Toronto Universities Must Reject False Claims that IAW is "Hate"

Israeli Apartheid Week 2009 is a series of lectures and film screenings on various campuses and communities (now 40 cities) across the world whose interest is to educate people about the nature of Israel as an apartheid system. In its fifth year, Toronto’s Israeli Apartheid Week was a major success, all lectures took place as scheduled with full rooms each night.

This year, IAW has seen an alarming increase in harassment, intimidation, and physical violence against its organizers and guests. While people who seem to be affiliated with the Jewish Defence League (JDL) are the primary organizers of the attacks, unfortunately, the student groups Hasbara and Hillel have also joined in, using cameras, physical proximity, and threatening language to intimidate activists, especially women students, calling them "terrorists"...
