Betar USA is the far-right organization giving the Trump administration names of pro-Palestine students to deport. Today they confirmed they are going after the “wrong sort of Jews” as well. It was always inevitable that this “anti-antisemitism” campaign would be turned against Jews on the left.

I taught at USNA for two years and one of the classes I taught was titled Gender, ethnicity, and religion in the IDF. It was incredible and challenging to teach and it’s crazy to think that such a class would be likely banned today.
