Brief:<\/b><\/p>

The article recounts the ailment of Palestinian students in the US when the students were protesting the forced expulsion of Palestinians from their homes in occupied East Jerusalem. As Palestinian students face similar attacks at Israeli universities across the country, many of them have fled campus and returned home. Knesset member Sami Abu Shehadeh (Balad Party leader) called on the Council of Higher Education and Minister of Education Yoav Galant to protect Palestinian students in Israeli universities. Israeli universities have long been complicit in the persecution of Palestinians by the Israeli occupation. In research conducted by the author between 2013 and 2016 in Israel, he discovered that Israeli universities \u201csystematically discriminate against Palestinian students and communities, engage with the Israeli military industrial complex and fully support the state\u2019s apartheid policies.\u201d Even the Hebrew University on Mount Scopus (HUJI) in occupied Jerusalem is a great example of how higher education institutions have become complicit in the Israeli settler-colonial project. The designers of the original master plan of the university, Patrick Geddes and Frank Mears, chose to incorporate an Arab style of architecture but did so with a sense of contempt for the Palestinian population which Geddes described in a letter as \u201cdirty, untidy, in many ways degenerate.\u201d A sign on the contemporary campus identifies the university as a \u201cuniversity of the Jewish people.\u201d Expectedly, Palestinian students are alienated on the campus by what they consider \u201can attempt to de-Palestinise a landscape that is integral to the Palestinian national territorial home.\u201d The antagonism of the university towards Palestinians is most evident in its relationship to the Palestinian communities in its vicinity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
