ANTI-SEMITISM AT U.C. IRVINE

UC-Intifada - Aaron Hanscom (FrontPageMagazine)
On Jan. 31, Middle East scholar Daniel Pipes gave a talk at the University of California at Irvine titled, "The Threat to Israel's Existence." Roughly 100 members of UCI's Muslim Student Union occupied the central seats in the lecture hall, most wearing t-shirts reading "UC Intifada."

A coordinated disruption began about five minutes into the talk. After the protesters exited the building while chanting slogans, student Reut Cohen followed the MSU students outside with her video camera running. Cohen's video of an organizer of the protest declaring: "It's just a matter of time before the State of Israel will be wiped off the face of the earth" immediately began circulating on the Internet and was aired on Fox News.

The Hillel Foundation of Orange County announced this week that it will investigate "an alarming increase in anti-Semitism" at UC Irvine, a campus with a history of tension between Muslim and Jewish students. It is the second investigation in two years of alleged anti-Semitism at the campus.
