Israeli universities are assisting a military slaughtering Palestinians and all Canadians are subsidizing them. We must end this huge financial contribution that should run afoul of charity rules.
In Israel the alliance between the military and academia has grown significantly in recent months. To enable students to participate in its Gaza genocide Israeli universities paused classes for two and half months. At the start of the year the country’s universities and military came to an agreement to restart classes. The schools will grant various benefits to reservists killing Palestinians.
The alliance between the army and academia is longstanding. In an October 4 article headlined “It’ll turn campus into an army base: Tel Aviv University to host soldiers’ program” 972 Magazine described a $4 million three-year deal TAU signed with the occupation force (IOF) to train hundreds of soldiers. Through the Erez program cadets will wear their uniforms on campus (initially they were to carry guns), the military can demand information on students and “the academic staff will refrain from offensive statements toward the IDF soldiers studying at the institution… [including] statements concerning their military service in the IDF.”
The dean of TAU’s Faculty of Humanities praised the program. Rachel Gali Cinamon said, “I don’t think there is another army in the world that does such a thing, that trains soldiers in humanistic values during military service.” (more...)
Why does CRA allow tax deductions for help killing Palestinians?
