Duke Suspends Students for Justice in Palestine Chapter Over Illustration Depicting ‘Zionism' as Pig Holding Star of David

[FreeBeacon] Duke Suspends Students for Justice in Palestine Chapter Over Illustration Depicting ’Zionism’ as Pig Holding Star of David. The image, originally published in a Black Panther Party newspaper in 1970, included another pig labeled 'U.S. Imperialism' and holding the Statue of Liberty's torch

Duke University suspended and froze funding for its campus Students for Justice in Palestine chapter after the anti-Israel organization shared an illustration flagged for "antisemitic imagery," the Duke Chronicle reported Wednesday.

The student organization advertised an event last month in an Instagram post featuring an illustration of two pigs, one labeled as "Zionism" and depicted holding a Star of David, and the other as "U.S. Imperialism" holding the Statue of Liberty’s torch.

A university official informed SJP leadership that the university's Office of Institutional Equity received 10 student complaints about the image, which was originally published in the Black Panther Party's newspaper in 1970. The university's Student Affairs office suspended the group and revoked its funding over "alleged harassment under the Policy on Prohibited Discrimination, Harassment and Related Misconduct," the Chronicle reported.

SJP officials told the Chronicle that the illustration "was never intended to be antisemitic" and that anti-Zionism is "not the same as targeting Jewish people."
Once upon a time that might have been true, although repeated psychology studies going back to the 1970s show that the delay between expressed hated of Israel and open Jew-hate is six months. Regardless, SJP as an organization and individual members have been observed gleefully organizing and enjoying physically attacking Jews as well as Israel supporters since 10/8/2023. As a result, somd have even been stripped of visas and green cards preparatory to sending them back home as persona non grata. So give it up, O SJP officials, do. Your lies are pathetic.
Noah Hamid, a leadership member of Duke's Students Supporting Israel chapter, told the Washington Free Beacon in a statement that "the suspension of Students for Justice in Palestine feels like a long-overdue acknowledgement of what many of us have been experiencing for years."
