Anti-Semitism at Yale

Anti-Semitism Now...
From this article in the Yale Daily News (via Sullivan):
In a mind-boggling act of vandalism, the posterboard memorial to 14 Israelis killed in a car bomb explosion displayed during a Yale Friends of Israel vigil Tuesday night was torn and scattered across the lawn early the next morning.

This is not a sign that dissent has devolved to graffiti on campus -- that was last week's defamation of an anti-divestment petition in the Law School. This is not a political objection to the Israeli government's treatment of Palestinians gone awry -- that was the removal of most of the signs advertising former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak's visit two weeks ago.

This is anti-Semitism. Plain and simple.
