Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) is notorious for their hatred of Israel. Now, at the City University of New York (CUNY), the group has put forward a resolution to the systemwide University Student Senate (USS) that not only rejects the widely accepted International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, but proposes a new definition, on their own terms. The alternate definition excludes anti-Zionism and disregards victims of modern antisemitism. This is an outrageous act of hubris and discrimination and deserves to be condemned to the highest degree.
