Bizarre programming

Ironically, Hanukka was still being celebrated when I came upon the details of one of the sessions being presented at the annual British Limmud Conference to be held next week. It reads as follows:

“Anti-occupation activism in the West Bank: Hear from three British Jews who took part in peaceful anti-occupation activism in the West Bank this year whilst living in Jerusalem. We will describe what we did, what we saw and how it felt. Learn how you could get involved, including through joining organised programmes and connecting directly with activist organisations.”

That a Jewish educational organization chooses to give a platform to those who reinforce slander and propaganda seeking to destroy the Jewish state is one thing. But what is even more bizarre is that the organization is helping these activists recruit more people to act against the State of Israel and the Jewish people.
