The University of British
Columbia (UBC) is hosting an anti-Israel event on Friday December 2 featuring a
journalist sympathetic to the leaders of the terror organization, the Popular
Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
Jon Elmer, a photojournalist,
will be at UBC’s Woodward Building on Friday night to lead a discussion hosted
by a so-called Boycott Israeli Apartheid Campaign. Elmer has described the PLFP
prisoners responsible for the murder of Israeli Cabinet Minister Rehavam Ze'evi as “political prisoners” and the
PFLP, a violent group devoted to the elimination of Israel and listed as a
terrorist organization by the European Union and the Canadian and US
governments, as “activists.”

This event, called
“Ghetto Palestine,” represents another occasion when radical fanatics whose
interest is the elimination of Israel are attempting to insinuate themselves
into mainstream Canadian universities.
