CW: Antisemitic abuse
Jewish students up and down the country are receiving antisemitic abuse as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict boils over into its second week.
One Jewish UCL student was sent a death threat which included a photoshopped picture of her under a guillotine.
UCL Jsoc has also been inundated with threatening messages. One Instagram user told the student-run organisation: “I wish death upon you and curses for life and inshallah to your unborns. Your mother, your father and you will burn in this life and the life after.”
Another user told UCL Jsoc to come to campus. “We’ll be waiting to say hello to you, Arab style,” they said.

A lecturer at The University of Leeds has been slammed by Leeds JSoc for repeatedly making “antisemitic” posts on Twitter.
In some of his tweets, Professor Ray Bush likens Jews to Nazis while in others he promotes antisemitic conspiracies, Leeds JSoc claims.
In one post, the African Studies lecturer tweeted: “Does it take a Nazi to recognise a Nazi #nazi #israel #racism ?”
In another tweet, Bush writes: “#nazi-zionistalliance #zionism #settlercolonialism hold onto power whoever you align with.”
