Interview with Kingsborough Community College Professor Jeffrey Lax, an Orthodox Jew, who recently resigned from CUNY's Union over a blatant antisemitic resolution accusing Israel of "apartheid," and calling for discussions about potential support for BDS.During the interview, Professor Lax cited countless examples of antisemitism within the union, faculty, and hiring practices at the community college.Opening monologue from  the interview: On June 18, Professor Jeffrey Lax, resigned from the CUNY’s professor’s union over the passage by an overwhelmingly number of colleagues on an anti-Israel resolution. In a recent column from The Jewish Press, the opening paragraph reads as follows:"The 47-year-old Jewish professor of business at Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn, N.Y., was appalled by a recent 83-34 vote by the Professional Staff Congress of CUNY on a June 10 resolution that condemns “the continued subjugation of Palestinians to the state-supported displacement, occupation and use of lethal force by Israel” and also “racism in all its forms including anti-Semitism, and recognizes that criticisms of Israel, a diverse nation-state, are not inherently anti-Semitic.”In what is part of a rising trend of Palestinianist-inspired antisemitism, since the normalizing of the antisemitic Squad in the Democrat Party, we have witnessed the growing chorus of blood-libeling against the Jewish state of Israel. With each day, we are seeing Democrats, who have been in Washington for over 30 years, cowering in fear over being primaried out of office if they dare stand up to these antisemitic provocateurs. The list of attacks against Jews and Israel is endless, but we know who the instigators are, and worse, we know who the cowards are who won’t stand up against antisemitism unless they are speaking at a Yeshiva dinner and receiving some meaningless awards. Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer have lauded Squad members for their “hard work” and “dedication,” while Jewish Democrats like Chuck Schumer have remained silent. While college campuses profess to be places of higher learning and “safe spaces” of tolerance and diversity, the one group who has benefited from none of the above are pro-Israel Jewish students and professors.
