It`s a big bugbear of mine that a protest like this (which isn`t unusual following Gaza in particular) is called anti-semitic...I find that massively insulting when cases of REAL anti-semitism come up.

I disagree with the director on this - the student should not be punished for the country they`re from, but then Israel does exactly the same thing, as do massive numbers of organised Jewish activists - I should know - I know some of them.
