"We, academics from a variety of fields and from all the institutions of higher learning in Israel, herein express publicly our opposition to the continued occupation and the establishment of settlements," the declaration states. "Ariel was built on occupied land. Only a few kilometers away from flourishing Ariel, Palestinians live in villages and refugee camps under unbearably harsh conditions and without basic human rights. Not only do they not have access to higher education, some do not even have running water. These are two different realities that create a policy of apartheid."These people has adopted the arguments of the enemy. Let them enter an Arab village to repair the water supply pipes and see what happens.

Our worst enemy
We are our worst enemy. Incredibly, Israeli universities and colleges are calling for an academic boycott of the Ariel University Center. How can we ask outsiders to fight the boycott of Israeli universities? Or is this a phony attack on Ariel intended to show to British and American boycotters that "See, we are clean and pure! We boycott those bad boys! Please dont boycott US!"

Is this a backlash by the left? Look what they've had to deal with recently.
Racist rabbis, anti-migrant protests, and now, an attempt by Lieberman's party to give their cherished organizations the Putin treatment.
So they take it out on the settlers, who are an easy target.
They are your worst enemy, because they are smarter than average, and in a unique position to demoralize you.

The leftist template of being 'holier than thou' at somebody else's expense is well-worn. The right should be inured to it by now. Exposure to the harsh employment market should cure them of their affectations.
