Five days following the incident in which a Hebrew University professor was filmed scolding a student for wearing her IDF uniform to class, the university\u00a0<\/span>published a special ad<\/a>\u00a0welcoming students in uniform to study at the university.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are pleased that our\u00a0widespread efforts, which included facilitating the sending of over\u00a0<\/span>45,000 emails<\/a>\u00a0to the university administration, organizing\u00a0<\/span>demonstrations<\/a>,\u00a0and pushing the issue in the\u00a0media<\/a>, resulted in this positive show of support for our soldiers.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However, there is still a long road ahead.<\/strong><\/u>\u00a0<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Yesterday,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>it was widely reported<\/a>\u00a0that a senior professor at Hebrew University will be giving a lecture in Europe accusing Israel of exploiting the “bodies and lives” of Palestinian children to promote arms sales.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Unfortunately, this phenomenon of Israelis slandering Israel abroad is not an uncommon occurrence.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Im Tirtzu will continue working hard to defend Israel by leading the fight against efforts to delegitimize Israel from within.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There Is No Compliment as Sincere as a Back-Handed One<\/h3>\n
\n
Today, the editorial in Haaretz newspaper<\/a> was solely devoted to attacking Im Tirtzu for our efforts defending the student who was shamed.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
They even concocted a wildly absurd and false story accusing Im Tirtzu of orchestrating the incident.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Evidently, they are not so fond that countless students turn to Im Tirtzu for help with instances of anti-Zionism in academia, labeling them as “informants” and stating how “the recent goings-on at the Hebrew University shows how the organization\u2019s efforts are bearing fruit<\/strong>.”<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
But, as they say, there is no compliment as sincere as a back-handed one.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
