1. Message for Noor, et. al.
ASTRONAUT ,   USA   (04.09.12)
Noor wishes to ". . . give students a feel of what it's like to live under occupation." Being that you and your Pali friends are PRIVILEGED to have been accepted into an AMERICAN [yes, we Western Capitalist Devils] university, by QUOTA, I'm sure, and to enjoy the FREEDOMS that WE here in AMERICA ensure through our CONSTITUTION [which all arab countries LACK] have you thought to EMBRACE your GOOD FORTUNE and devote your time to EDUCATION and ENLIGHTENMENT, so you can RETURN to your squalid homeland and WORK to IMPROVE THE PLIGHT OF YOUR so-called PEOPLE.
2. Kick these racist muslims out of school!
Don Rosenberg ,   Palatine USA   (04.09.12)
Time to stop these racist ingrates and kick them out of school and this country, back to arabia. All these fake, invented people need to be put in their place, Make them pay all tuition and any money given to them. These are racist morons and should be considered such.
3. So not just Israelis, but targeting Jews
William ,   Israel   (04.09.12)
the true foundation of the "Pro-Palestinian" supporters always comes to light. It's not "pro-Palestinian" but rather anti-semitic (instead of anti-Israel). And in Florida of all places, right after the Trayvon Martin incident.
4. #1 - ok, Noor, but first....
William ,   Israel   (04.09.12)
Let the Jews blow up several buildings where you and your Muslim friends reside, and meet, and buses, shops where your Muslim friends and family visit. Then you'll know what it feels like to live under Islamic terrorism.
5. Islamo-Leftist Apartheid!
(04.09.12)
6. University of APARTHEID!
(04.09.12)
7. Notices did not target Jews
Marsh   (04.09.12)
If the notices appeared only on Jewish dorm rooms it would be an outrageous hate crime. Instead it was free speech that may have crossed the boundaries of school policies. Boca is hardly Beirut.
8. So why not every student?
Jay ,   Princeton NJ   (04.09.12)
Why did these so called "Pro-Palestinian" activists single out only the Jewish students? If you want to raise awareness, shouldn't you have addressed the entire school? This is a hate crime. Furthermore, these Jewish students have NOTHING to do with what is going on with settlement building. Just like the Palestinian students in the USA are not responsible for the deadly rockets fired into Israel daily by Islamic Jihad killing innocent people.
9. This is the Left
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (04.09.12)
"Postings were removed"? Targeting Jews with signs calling "Jews out"? Calling for establishment of Jew-free zones? This was a racist hate-crime and falls uner the Federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act signed by Obama. But these were Leftists. They speak of morality, but support racist nationalism in the form of apartheid.
10. How's this for your "freedom of expression", Noor?
William ,   Israel   (04.09.12)
"Palm Beach County Commissioner Steven Abrams said in a statement Wednesday that using the county seal on the mock eviction notices... is illegal"!!! Prepare for the "freedom of expression" from the State prosecutor's office, dumbass. Question: Can "Palestinians" do anything without violating local and intl laws? It doesn't appear so.
11. There is only ONE thing to be done now,
Mara ,   Vienna   (04.09.12)
namely to evict those terrorists (that's what they are as everywhere!) immediately from the University! They are becoming a global threat by now!
12. These 200 Need Support
Dan ,   Florida - Tel Aviv   (04.09.12)
It is incumbent that every Jew send an email to the President of FAU, president@fau.edu as this was an act of Palestinian terrorism and each Palestinian student must be expelled and those not citizens deported. Make no mistake this was NOT Free Speech, it was an overt act of terrorism. The safety and security of every Jew on campus, student, professor, worker is now the PERSONAL responsibility of the FAU President. Additionally with Obama coming to speak there he should cancel his visit or imprison every Palestinian so as to prevent an act of terrorism against Obama. It is up to each of us to stand up for these Jewish children and stand against Palestinian terrorism.
13. as i have said many times when will we stop being nice giuys
ralph   (04.09.12)
14. Nice....
Gabriel ,   Leiden, Netherlands   (04.09.12)
So it's unfair to connect Arabs in Europe and the USA to the actions of their brethren in darker places in the World, as they constantly scream (without bothering to actually condemn these actions as we noticed), yet they feel it is perfectly okay for them to post this eviction crap on Jewish dorm rooms because of Israeli 'crimes' (crimes that include existing in the first place) But if they really want to go down this particular road, let's remind them of the ethnical cleansing of Jews from Arab countries after '48. This nasty little fact has been somewhat neglected in discussions on who's evicting who, yet I promise them the numbers involved in our case will dwarf theirs. Also, if these kids want to be politically involved, that's fine. If they feel it's their moral obligation to fight for the human rights of Arabs in the Middle-East, that's great! Why they would start with Israel however, is forever beyond me. Iran, for instance, has this lovely practice of hanging minors from cranes, whip women in public for the crime of being raped, and casually murders its own population for having the temerity to object to rigged elections. I am positive I don't need to remind this kids what's presently going on in Syria, and what is regarded as customary in countries in Pakistan, Saoudi-Arabia and Yemen. What we see here is not activism on behalf of the Arab trodden, but racistic, cynical opportunism disguised as righteous concern.
15. we do feel the occupation since 7 century
ygalg ,   israel   (04.09.12)
16. "the intent"?
Mark ,   L'viv, Ukraine   (04.09.12)
SJP chapter President Noor Fawzy said, "The intent is to expose Israel's illegal policies and give students a feel of what it's like to live under occupation." So, why don't the Jewish students stand across the street from a pro-Palestinian dormitory, and fire bottle rockets through the windows to give them a feel of what it's like to have rockets fired at them all the time. An idea who's time has come?
17. 200 JEWISH students? How did they know?
dan ,   New York, USA   (04.09.12)
It's extremely frightening to realize that they've been identifying who the Jews are on campus. Jew-counting is incredibly intimidating these days, as it has been for centuries. What's equally frightening is that these "students" don't realize how much their hate blinds them to that fact -- and to many others about the realities of Israel and the Palestinians.
18. Fraud
Yaniv Levi ,   Israel   (04.09.12)
get them for Fraud, academic misconduct, hate crimes, and intimidation (and find out how they knew where only the Jews lived it probably was illegal and get them on that and anyone who helped)
19. the 200 - correction
Simeon ,   Boca Raton   (04.09.12)
Please take note that the article is incorrect. 200 fliers were posted on 200 doors but not exclusively Jewish Students.
20. Islamo-Leftist Apartheid!
Rachel ,   USA   (04.09.12)
Expel all muslims anti-Jews inciters from the countries - causing fear and threatening the students preventing them from learning at easy in healthy environment. Where are the responsible officials of this university?
21. Investigate. Expel. Charge. Deport.
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (04.09.12)
There is no place in the US or its campuses for such vile behavior. The proper response is to identify those involved, suspend SJP from acting on campus, and expel those identified. They should be charged with hate crimes and sanctioned. And if they're not citizens, send them back where they came from. As long as such behavior carries no penalty, it'll only get worse.
22. Yes, we want to bring attention too to their Plight.
nibor ,   israel   (04.09.12)
Their plight is they are full of hate. Women have no rights and must cover up totally. Women cannot go swimming, unless they are fully clothed down to their toes. No one in their community has rights either. Submission is their most holy word. No Jews live in Palestinian areas either. That's not Apartheid? How long do they think they can get away with this hypocrisy? They have created their own prison, not us. But we are not going to take the fall for them.
23. Marsh # 7
Arnold ,   Canada   (04.09.12)
Do you read and comprehend at the same time ?. The notices targetted Jewish dorm rooms only.
24. This is a Felony
Joe sombrero ,   USA   (04.09.12)
Anytime someone uses the County Or Federal's shield on letterhead in order to defraud someone it is a felony. This group that did this is in serious hot water I guarantee it. This may even be a federal crime.
25. ban this campus terror group!
nadav ,   tlv   (04.09.12)
these terror cell chapters on American adn European campuses should be shut down for promoting hate, intolerance, racism and anti-semitism. this is NOT free Speech! it is intimidation and hatred!
26. Simeon # 19
Arnold ,   Canada   (04.09.12)
Show me the article with the correction. I want to read it for myself.
27. A distortion of freedom of expression
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (04.09.12)
Freedom of expression in civilised countries is not the same as intimidation.That WAS intimidation,pure and simple. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
28. #24 - yes this was a felony...
William ,   Israel   (04.09.12)
and when will the ACLU arrive and claim the rights of these pro-"Palestinians" have been violated?
29. the real refuges are the jews from
david masica   (04.09.12)
arab countries. the moslems wants all ...there wet dream is an islamic world,,,where ever there are moslems there will dead people.
30. I live next door to FAU
AFRIED ,   Boca Raton FL USA   (04.09.12)
Obama is coming tomorow. I sent NOOR my neigbor the following message with the heading "How have palastinians treated christains"? "The answer is that there were 18% in the west bank and 50 years later there is only 1% left. I am sure they did not leave because they could not take the goodness of Islam..... " Many have complained already we will see what if anything the university and authorities do.
