    Political speech is our most protected right. It is in the FIRST amendment because it is so important. The Supreme Court has affirmed students have this right. The university president is on audio saying he doesn’t want students saying what the ICJ,UN special rapporteur, Doctors Without Borders, UNICEF and amnesty International concluded because it upsets Israeli students. Criticism of the Israeli government actions and policies is not anti semitism
