It is becoming an all too familiar story in academia. A speaker from Israel-or who is pro-Israel- is invited to speak.

Then some university official gets cold feet and cancels the event lest there

This religion professor, Gail Hamner, is falling all over herself trying to apologize for her cowardice and bad judgment. She knows now that she has given in to the BDS bullies on campus. She knows she has brought embarrassment to Syracuse University. She knows that she has struck a blow against free speech.
