Leiden University Cancels Professorship of Jewish Studies

Judith Frishman has presented her departure lecture as Professor of Jewish Studies at Leiden University. The University is now cancelling that Professorship. She mentioned that she has frequently been asked whether the Jewish community could subsidize the Professorship. Frishman observed that this request is related to the prejudice of the rich Jew, which Dutch Jews are not. She added: “why should Jews pay for this Professorship and why doesn't have a firm place just as other Professorships of other religions have?”

Does the Netherlands Continue indirectly to finance Terrorist-Related Palestinian Organization?


Israeli organization NGO Monitor says that OXFAM Novib annually receives tens of millions of Dutch tax money.  It is likely that part of that is transferred to the Palestinian UAWC organization. UAWC apparently  supports the terrorist organization PFLP financially.  Two former UAWC employees are currently in Israeli jail suspected of murdering a 17 year old Israeli girl in 2019.
