		The idea that a boycott would push Israeli academics to stand against their government's policies also appealed to a segment of those who were in favour of the motion.
		Bar Ilan University set up an advisory board for academic freedom which took out an advert in The Guardian comparing the boycott to the persecution of academics in Germany in the preceding years of World War II.
		Moreover, the proposition put forward by the initiative included a Palestinian call to exclude 'conscientious Israeli academics and intellectuals opposed to their state's colonial and racist policies' which was seen as problematic to a large number of British academics who wondered about the selection process and the criteria it will follow.

	Multilingual and Multiscript Subject Access: the Case of Israel - 66th IFLA Council and General Conference - Conference ...
		Many Israeli libraries also maintain a fourth catalog for entries in the Cyrillic alphabet; while Cyrillic is more easily romanized than Hebrew or Arabic, Russian is the mother tongue of a large segment of the Israeli public (particularly in recent years) which has justified maintaining this additional script.
		The University of Haifa also felt that in a university community in which everyone supposedly had a good reading knowledge of English, using English subject terminology would not be too great a handicap.
		It would appear that with the exception of Bar-Ilan University's split-file approach, the Israeli university libraries feel reasonably comfortable with using English terminology for their subject retrieval (either via LCSH headings or enhancements to the classified catalog).

		The fact that an Israeli university like Bar-Ilan is giving sponsorship to this college is a mark of shame on the Israeli academic world.
		To silence the British, the lecturers' organizations in Israel as well as the heads of the universities must make every possible effort to prevent the Council for Higher Education from upgrading the status of the College of Judea and Samaria, until such time as it is relocated inside the territory of the State of Israel.
		In this way, Israeli academia can become the vanguard in the shaping of a new policy that will change the parade of evil in which we have been trudging for the past 38 years.

	British academic publisher boycotts Bar-Ilan University
		The university yesterday asked Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and Science Minister Matan Vilnai to intervene to prevent "the escalation of the scientific boycott on the State of Israel, which will damage the level of research in Israel, and thereby the level of development and technology."
		The academic boycott was the brainchild of two professors from Britain's Open University, Hilary and Steven Rose, who circulated a petition in response to April's Operation Defensive Shield urging all Europeans to sever academic and scientific ties with Israel.
		Already, she added, "the security situation is affecting the arrival of [post-doctoral] researchers and students from abroad, and the number of participants at scientific conferences has also fallen significantly.

		Israeli soldiers also killed several Palestinian children and 3 medical staff as they sought to attend to wounded.

		However, Israeli military assaults that systematically result in civilian deaths are also war crimes, regardless of their justification.

		The immediate impetus was an expose some months ago in the Israeli daily Maariv on Rav Shlomo Aviner, the revered chief rabbi of Beit El and a central figure in the religious Zionist camp — "the rabbi's rabbi," the "holy of holies," as he has been called by his followers.
		Several women called Kolech to complain about Rabbi Yitzchak Cohen, a former head of, and later a lecturer in, the midrasha at Bar-Ilan University, who they claimed sexually harassed them when they were students at the university some years ago.
		Despite strong pressure against Kehat, who was accused of pursuing a "feminist" agenda, the university appointed a committee, headed by a rabbi, which heard testimony from several women in the presence of the accused rabbi.

		According to the report, the association's annual council meeting, beginning April 20, is also set to discuss the possibility of boycotting three of Israel's eight universities - Haifa University, Bar Ilan University and Jerusalem's Hebrew University - due to their alleged support of government policy in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
		Birmingham University lecturer Sue Blackwell said she is convinced the motion will be approved this year, as boycott campaigners are better organized.
		While the union's executive has not yet decided how to tackle the motions, according to the Guardian sources have said it may file a counter-motion, as it "recognizes that the peaceful resolution of the problems facing the Middle East will not be brought about by the erection of barriers, but by open dialogue".

	British lecturers' union overturns boycott of Israeli academics
		The universities themselves argued that the boycott would contravene anti-discrimination laws and their own research and funding contracts, which assume equality of access and opportunity, irrespective of national, religious or ethnic origins or affiliations.
		Boycotts and protest actions against the Israeli government and its backers in Washington and London, such as calls to block the movement of military equipment and isolate the Sharon government, are entirely legitimate.
		But we reject the conception that it is possible to advance the struggle of the Palestinian people by isolating Israeli academics and academic and cultural institutions, many of which have made important contributions to the development of science and an understanding of the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

		Jerusalem: The Israeli defense ministry has said that strategic arms sales to India by Tel Aviv are exempt from an American veto on technology transfer exports.
		The U.S. and Israel generally see eye to eye, he said, and a mechanism is being worked out to enable the two countries to consult and agree whether a particular export affects America's national security interests.
		Commenting on the Defense News report, Bar Ilan University researcher Gerald Steinberg said that from conversations with American security officials he got the impression that Israel's defense deals with India would go through unopposed, though India is one of four 'countries of concern' to which the United States bans strategic arms sales by third countries.
