On March 7, 2016, a group of around 30 protesters from a group calling itself "Pro-Palestine Supporters and Community” disrupted an event titled “The Art of Middle East Diplomacy,”organized by a pro-Israel group at UC Davis.
The event featured Israeli diplomat George Deek, an Arab Christian born in Jaffa. The disruption was videotaped.
The protesters obscured [00:00:33] Deek from the audience’s view, with an enormous banner across the front of the room that read “1948=1492” and disrupted Deek’s talk, repeatedly chanting [00:00:05, 00:00:31 and 00:02:17] “Long live the Intifada” and [00:00:10, 00:00:38 and 00:01:17] “Intifada, Intifada!”
The protestors also demonized [00:00:13] Israel, calling it “an Apartheid state” and claiming [00:01:21] “Israel is anti-Black.”
As the protesters shouted, Deek wrote [00:01:39] on a chalkboard behind them that he had come to have a conversation. However, the activists then exited the room, yelling [00:02:32] “Allahu Akbar!”
A post-walkout statement from the protesters claimed that they organized based on “shared principles of anti-colonialism in general and anti-zionism in particular,” to reject Deek’s “settler-colonial agenda that is xenophobic, Islamophobic and anti-Black.
The statement condemned Deek, “a self-identified Israeli born to a Palestinian family,” as a “colonial collaborator,” announcing its authors would “not tolerate or allow for such people to have a platform to speak on [their] campus.
On October 15, 2015, Jamaludin posted a series of photos from an SJP event that was held in coordination with the anti-Israel Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) organization one day earlier for International Campus Day of Action for Palestine.
Jamaludin helped lead the protest and held a sign that read “Long Live the Intifada.” She also posed in two photos holding a sign that said: “Existence is Resistance” and held the megaphone for protest leaders.
SJP and JVP members gathered on the UC Davis quad. Protesters chanted: “From Davis to Gaza, long live the intifada,” and also [00:00:37] “Free, Free Palestine”. One protest leader accused [00:00:24] Israel of ethnic cleansing and called [00:00:34] for UC Davis to divest from Israel.

Activists taped their mouths and sat in the middle of the campus quad, in “solidarity with 1600 Palestinian political prisoners.”On May 10, 2017, SJP at UC Davis posted a Facebook video of its activists participating in the “#SaltWaterChallenge.”
The “Saltwater Challenge” was held in solidarity with Palestinian inmates hunger-striking in Israeli prisons.
The strike was initiated by Marwan Barghouti, who was serving five consecutive life sentences for his role in suicide bombings and shooting attacks that killed five Israelis during the second intifada. Barghouti led the the Palestinian Authority (PA) terrorist Tanzim force and founded the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades.
Barghouti also financed the guitar-case bomb used in the Sbarro Cafe massacre, where 15 civilians were killed and 130 injured. More than 1,000 other Palestinian prisoners participated in the hunger strike — most of whom were also convicted for acts of terrorism.
According to CNN, the “Saltwater Challenge” appears to have been started by Aarab Barghouti, son of Marwan Barghouti.
On March 6, 2017, SJP UC Davis posted a Facebook post in support of Basel Al Araj — referring to him as “Another innocent Palestinian extrajudicially executed by the Israeli state.”
Basel Al Araj was killed in a shoot-out with Israeli troops during an arrest raid. He had been suspected of belonging to a terror cell planning to carry out attacks on Israeli targets. Two M-16 assault rifles and an improvised Carlo-style submachine gun were found inside his home.

Israel responded by installing metal detectors and security checks at the entrance to the holy site.
The terrorists reportedly feared that “Al Aqsa is in danger,” which has long been a pretext for Arab attacks on Jews long before the State of Israel’s existence. Following rioting and further violence, the Israeli government removed the metal detectors on July 25, 2017.
SJP UC Davis - Hosting Anti-Israel Events
On February 15, 2018, SJP and MSA co-hosted SJP founder Hatem Bazian at an event called “Discussing Post-Colonialism with Dr. Hatem Bazian.” During the event, Bazian denied [01:09:28] the national-historical connection of the Jewish people to Israel, alleged [00:49:55] that Jesus of Nazareth was “Palestinian” and claimed [01:25:02] that “investing in peace” with Israel is “supporting apartheid.”SJP UC Davis has co-hosted events with the Palestinian Youth Movement, Bay Area (PYM) .

SJP UC Davis - Demonizing Israel
On March 5, 2018, SJP at UC Davis erected a mock-apartheid wall, a representation of Israel’s security barrier, on the campus quad.Text on one red panel on the wall implied that Israel deliberately targeted United Nations buildings in Gaza and misleadingly cited the terrorist group Hamas’ propaganda figures concerning the number of Gazan children killed during Israel’s Operation Protective Edge (OPE).
Israel commenced Operation Protective Edge (OPE) in July 2014, to stop rocket fire targeting Israeli civilians and to destroy Hamas attack tunnels.
Following OPE, it was reported that Hamas had used UNRWA schools and other densely populated civilian areas to fire rockets from and had threatened UNRWA workers at gunpoint to hide weapons in the schools. Hamas rocket attacks were often based in civilian areas.
Another panel on the mock-apartheid wall depicted an Israeli flag with bloody handprints and the words “Stop US Aid to Israel.”
SJP UC Davis held a protest in front of the barrier in which 40 to 50 students participated. One protester held a sign that said: “Resistance is justified when people are occupied.”
Protesters also promoted BDS with a sign that read “Divest, Resist, Liberate.”

ISM has been accused of supporting terrorism and has encouraged its foreign volunteers to act “as human shields in cities, towns and refugee camps.” ISM has also encouraged activists to break curfew and disregard Israeli directives prohibiting access to closed military zones.
On March 19, 2017, SJP UC Davis promoted a petition on Facebook in support of Issa Amro.
SJP UC Davis’ post claimed Amro was “undergoing a military trial for his non-violent activism” and called on “the Isreali [sic] government to drop the politically motivated charges against him.”
SJP UC Davis’s post also reported that the group hosted Amro in the fall of 2016.

The post featured a graphic of Hawking knocking down a concrete segment of Israel’s security barrier while wearing a shirt that said “BDS.”
On the same day, SJP activists arrived at a UC Regents Board meeting in Los Angeles uninvited to announce their new statewide #UCDivest campaign and deliver their demands directly to the UC Regents. SJP Activists marched and held signs that said “UC Divest from Apartheid #UCDivest” and a banner with the #UCDivest. They chanted “The people united will never be divided.”

On September 28, 2017, SJP scheduled “a phone banking session” to urge California Governor Jerry Brown to veto anti-BDS bill AB2844.
SJP called on “ALL SJPS, ALLIES AND PEOPLE OF CONSCIENCE TO JOIN US!” and claimed that the bill “violates our 1st Amendment right to free speech.”
However, the bill passed before the scheduled phone banking session. Upon learning that the bill had passed prior to their telethon, SJP changed the purpose of its session — asking people to voice disappointment at Brown’s decision to sign the bill.
In 2015, the UC Davis student senate passed anti-Israel divestment resolutions in January and in May. The 2015 resolutions were introduced after a student senate divestment resolution at UC Davis failed in May 2014.
On May 28, 2015, SJP introduced a revised resolution, that alleged "enabling Israel’s occupation of Palestine compromises the integrity of students’ education." The resolution also claimed divesting funds from companies described as “furthering human rights violations and systematic discrimination” would “create a climate of tolerance and open channels of dialogue between different campus communities.”
The UC Davis student senate passed the resolution 10-0-2.
On January 29, 2015, the UC Davis senate passed an anti-Israel divestment resolution. However, the university’s Court of Associated Studentsoverturned the resolution as unconstitutional because it was "primarily a political document" and did not include explicit language describing how it tangibly impacted student welfare.
Anti-Semitism at UC Davis
On January 31, 2015, less than 48 hours after a divestment resolution passed at UC Davis, unidentified vandals spray-painted two large swastikas on the wall and entrance of the UC Davis Alpha Epsilon Pi (AEPi) Jewish fraternity house.On January 22, 2015, a week before the scheduled divestment resolution vote, the words “grout out the Jews” were etched into the wall of a bathroom stall at the UC Davis Hillel House.
On March 25, 2016, an anti-semitic flier was distributed to networked printers and fax machines on campus. The flier included swastikas and said “White Man are you Sick and Tired of the Jews Destroying Your Country through Mass Immigration and Degeneracy? Join Us in the Struggle for Global White Supremacy at the Daily Stormer.”
On October 10, 2015, vandals carved swastikas and “F**k Jews” into two cars and slashed the tires of eight cars parked on the UC Davis campus.
SJP
SJP is a student organization engaged in anti-Israel activity on North American college and university campuses.
The first chapter of SJP was founded in 2001 at the University of California at Berkeley by Professor Hatem Bazian. Bazian has spread classic anti-Semitism, reportedly promoted religious anti-Semitism and defended the Hamas terror group. In 2004, Bazian called for “intifada” in America.
SJP organizes anti-Israel campaigns, including running annual Israel Apartheid Weeks, often in collaboration with Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) and Muslim Students Association (MSA) campus chapters.
SJP has been a major force in pushing the anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement on campuses. Chapters have initiated dozens of BDS resolutions in student governments, which have been proposed on or around Jewish holidays, a time when many Jewish students are off-campus.
SJP activists have reportedly physically assaulted, intimidated and harassed Jewish students, disrupted pro-Israel campus events and demonized pro-Israel campus organizations.
Chapters have often endorsed and campaigned for numerous terrorists and whitewashed terrorism.
MSA
The MSA was established by members of the Muslim Brotherhood in January 1963 at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, with the goal of "spreading Islam as students in North America." A 2004 FBI investigation uncovered an internal Muslim Brotherhood document in which a brotherhood leader identified the MSA as "one of our organizations."
The MSA reportedly has “nearly 600 chapters” located in the United States and Canada, and is “the most visible and influential Islamic student organization in North America,” boasting conferences, special events, publications, websites and other activities.
The organization includes a number of previous chapter presidents with explicit links to terrorist groups. Included are al-Qaeda cleric Anwar al-Awlaki (Colorado State University), Somali al-Shabaab militant leader Omar Shafik Hammami (University of South Alabama) and Pakistani Taliban recruiter Ramy Zamzam of the MSA's Washington, D.C. council.
BDS
The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement was founded by Omar Barghouti in 2005 to challenge “international support for Israeli apartheid and settler-colonialism.” BDS is an allegedly “Palestinian-led movement,” although leading BDS activists have admitted [00:01:01] this is not true.
One of the demands of BDS includes [point 3] what is generally known as the “right of return,” a demand discredited as a way to eliminate Israel. Barghouti said the “right of return” is a means to “end Israel’s existence as a Jewish state.”
Barghouti has said that BDS “aims to turn Israel into a pariah state, as South Africa once was.”
In his activism, Barghouti has also said [00:05:55] regarding Israel: “Definitely, most definitely, we oppose a Jewish state in any part of Palestine. No…rational Palestinian, not a sellout Palestinian, will ever accept a Jewish state in Palestine.”
The movement has been linked to numerous terrorist organizations and received a public endorsement from Hamas in 2017.
BDS initiatives include calling on institutions and individuals to divest from Israeli-affiliated companies, promoting academic and cultural boycotts of Israel, and organizing anti-Israel rallies, protests and campaigns.
The movement’s most notable achievement has been the infiltration of university campuses through lobbying for “BDS resolutions.” In these cases, student governments and student groups, backed by their own anti-Israel members and affiliates, have proposed resolutions on some form of boycott of, or divestment from, Israel and Israeli-affiliated entities.
Boycott resolutions, although non-binding, have been passed by student governments on numerous North American campuses.
BDS activity is often aggressive and disruptive. It has been noted that universities that pass BDS resolutions see a marked increase in anti-Semitic incidents on campus. On one campus, when the student government debated a BDS resolution, reports emerged of violent threats against those opposing it.
