BDS Lies at CUNY

Audio shows Brooklyn College lied about circumstances of Jewish students being thrown out of SJP event

From Algemeiner:
Audio from the Brooklyn College sponsored BDS event shows that the Jewish students present did not disrupt the event. School administrators, instructors and SJP people claimed they were evicted from the talk for being loud and disruptive. Evidently the only disruption was to be sitting and holding pamphlets that the SJP organizers didn’t like, especially Carlos Guzman, who confronted one of the students, told them they couldn’t have their pamphlets, and told security to remove the pro-Israel Jewish students. The vice-president for student affairs at Brooklyn College, Milga Morales, was sitting near by, did not intervene and later vouched for the lie.

This is not an admission of guilt, or a nolo contendre plea, but a way to drop the charges without embarrassing the prosecution.
