Academics boycott Peace

Andrew Bolt uncovers the hyposcrisy of Boycotting Israel

The dean of the university’s arts and social science faculty, Duncan Ivison, yesterday wrote to Jake Lynch spelling out that “he does not speak for the faculty on visiting scholars and cannot make decisions about who comes here”.
Associate Professor Lynch caused outrage after he rejected a bid for assistance by Hebrew University of Jerusalem academic Dan Avnon, credited with developing Israel’s only state program in civics written for Jewish and Arab students, on the basis of the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement against Israel.
Isn't it disgusting when the anti-Israel brigade boycott those that act for peace and unity?  It shows that being Academic (supposedly 'intelligent') doesn't mean you can reason logically without being bent by bias or hate.
