Looks like a lot of the usual local suspects (some of these people show to protest Holocaust Remembrance events -- I kid you not), with some assist from other local groups like the Islamic Society of Boston. You will see that most of the people in the photos are obviously not students.
To think that this could happen at my Alma Matter...the disgrace. I'm not suprised that the area moonbats showed up to protest either (as they have frequent interactions with some of the more fringe student groups).
But I'm suprised that the University would even consider posting this artwork--it should have known the kind of response it would elicit.
Thankfully, this did not occur during my years at Brandeis or I would be in prison for multiple homicides.
Below is the email I just sent to five of Brandeis' top administration staff. I got the email addresses and idea for the email from an anti-Semitic Brandeis student's (Kevin Montgomery) blog. I then modified it to say the exact opposite of what that Jew-hater was encouraging people to write....
To: terris@brandeis.edu - Daniel S. Terris, director of the International Center for Ethics, Justice, and Public Life, who actively lobbied for the artwork to be removed - Phone - 781-736-8577
jreinhar@brandeis.edu – Jehuda Reinharz – University President
sawyer@brandeis.edu – Rick Sawyer, Dean of Student Life
alwina@brandeis.edu – Alwina Bennet – Assistant Dean of Student Life
jadams22@brandeis.edu - Jamele Adams - Assistant Dean of Student Life in Support of Diversity
Subject: Thanks for not supporting the anti-Israel artwork on campus
I am thrilled by the actions of the Brandeis Administration last weekend. The Brandeis administration had a moral obligation to pull the paintings by "Palestinian" children and was right in doing so. With the resurgence of anti-Semitism throughout the world and on university campuses, it is imperative that Brandeis remain an outpost of pro-Israel/pro-Jewish political ideology. The artwork of "Palestinian" children has no place on Brandeis' campus. When the "Palestinians" renounce violence and stop indoctrinating their children with anti-Semitic, Nazi propaganda, then they will have earned the right to have their "voices" heard. Until then, their "voices" have no place on any university campus, particularly one with Jewish origins and named after a Zionist, Justice Brandeis.
Charles has photos from the protest over Brandeis's pulling of that Palestinian (propaganda) art exhibit (no opportunity missed to protest Israel's existence).
Yeah, that demented-looking woman in the third photo is definitely someone I've seen screeching at me outside Boston-area Jewish events.
Honestly, how much time do these people have on their hands?

PS: Kevin Montgomery is a disgrace to your institution and makes me ashamed to call Brandeis my alma mater.
