How BDS Is Contributing to Campus Anti-Semitism

Tammi Rossman-Benjamin

I am cross-posting an op-ed in the Washington Times dated August 12, 2025 by my friend and colleague, former University of California at Santa Cruz professor, Tammi Rossman-Benjamin, co-founder of the Amcha Initiative, an organization established to combat anti-Semitism on our university campuses. Tammi and I have met and spoken many times and have appeared at various events together regarding this serious topic, which only continues to get worse.

In the article linked here, Tammi explains how the BDS movement targeting Israel impacts Jewish students and faculty who support the state of Israel. I agree wholeheartedly with everything she says in the op-ed because I have witnessed it myself. On two occasions, I have heard BDS co-founder Omar Barghouti speak twice (at UC Riverside and UC Irvine). I have witnessed firsthand how his sponsors and supporters on those two campuses mock and ridicule those who disagree with his poison. He poses as a peace activist, but his goal is the total eradication of the Jewish state by any means necessary.

As the subtitle suggests, Washington does have a role to play, both at the congressional level with the House hearings they are holding with testimony by university presidents, the investigations by the Department of Education, Office of Civil Rights, and the support of President Trump and Leo Terrell, who the president has tasked with investigating campus anti-Semitism.

There is much work to be done, and BDS must not be overlooked. It should be that almost every BDS resolution passed by various student governments has been rejected by the respective universities. But they should make it clear to their students that BDS resolutions are a waste of time, even calling into question the need for universities to engage in student governments in the first place if this is the kind of nonsense they choose to waste their time on.
