Missouri police arrested Jill Stein, the U.S. presidential candidate for the Green Party, during the forceful removal of an anti-Israel protest that took place on the campus of Washington University in St. Louis. Stein, a Jewish-American politician, came to support students who demand that the university withdraw all its investments from Boeing, because of its contracts with the IDF and the defense industry in Israel. Over the years, Stein has accused Israel of apartheid and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of war crimes. (Daniel Edelson, New York)
