| State council seeks to shut down `leftist` department at BGU | | Noam Sheizaf - +972 - As Prof. Carmi noted, the attack is not aimed only against this department or against this university. The main function of the Council for Higher Education is to provide budgets for universities. In an era of budget cuts, who will want to further annoy this government-appointed council? What will become of professors and researchers who hold left-wing or critical options, and whose contracts are up for renewal or evaluation? Will Im Tirzu now become the standard-bearer in academic discourse?

"Im Tirzu, the most well-known of the three organizations, and the one to enjoy the support of prominent Likud members and ministers, has put a special emphasis on Ben-Gurion University. Three years ago, Im Tirzu threatened President Carmi “to scare off donors” if the university did not get rid of its left-wing faculty members. Later, the group distributed posters suggesting that faculty members in the Department of Politics and Government supported the 2001 lynch of two IDF soldiers in Ramallah – a blood libel without a shred of evidence behind it.One of Im Tirzu’s prominent supporters is Education Minister Gidon Sa’ar (Likud).

| Just how did Iraqi Jews become refugees in 1950? | | Ramat Gan Committee of Baghdadi Jews - We most sincerely thank the Israeli government for confirming our status as refugees following a rapid, 62-year-long evaluation of our documents. Now it remains to be investigated if it is true that in 1950 Israeli PM David Ben-Gurion secretly authorized Iraqi PM Nuri as-Said to take possession of the property and assets of Iraqi Jewry provided the Jews themselves were sent to Israel. Also should be investigated is whether the Israeli Mossad was involved in bombing the Masouda Shem-Tov Synagogue in Baghdad, so as to frighten Iraqi Jew and make them flee to Israel. | 18/9/2012 |

| A different view on the Palestinian legislative elections | | Haidar Eid -
AlAhram Weekly
"The democratic alternative is the one that reflects the collective will of the Palestinian people. This alternative lies in elections to the Palestinian National Council (PNC) after reconstructing the PLO on the basis of true democracy to ensure the genuine representation of all national and Islamist factions. PNC elections would ensure the representation of the Diaspora away from the mentality of a false independence cultivated under an oppressive occupier. These elections could bring the Palestinian people closer to self-determination, as defined by international law, while restoring their legitimate right to multiple forms of resistance." ca
