During the past three weeks there has been a great deal of anti-Israel activity on our campuses. We are very proud that our students have been willing to stand up and take up the fight for Israel. Our Hillel students are supporting many different Israel oriented student groups including a group that's committed to keeping open lines of dialogue with Muslim students We are also grateful for the support of many organizations including AIPAC, ADL, Stand With Us and UJF's Israel Center.

Over 60 Jewish students at UCSD gathered with Israeli flags and flyers giving accurate information about Hamas’s human rights violations and Israel's commitment to peace.
