BDS activists target Israel’s UN envoy at Columbia speech
Activists from the movement to boycott Israel disrupted a speech by UN ambassador Danny Danon at Columbia University in New York last night.
Around 100 activists entered the lecture theater shouting slogans such as “Palestine will be free, from the river to the sea” and “Israel is a terror state,” as Danon addressed some 300 students, Ynet reports.
Danon responded by inviting the protesters to remain and listen to his words. “Instead of inciting and lying, pull up chairs and maybe you’ll learn something,” he said.
