«Israel = Terrorists»: immersion among pro-Palestinian students

«Palestine will be free from the river to the sea», «Our cause is more important than the law»... The radicalism of some of the pro-Palestinian students occupying the universities no longer needs proving. Report from Freiburg, where some Jews have even been intimidated.

Around fifty people have taken over the hall of the Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Fribourg, but the cramped conditions suggest that there are many more. Present on campus since midday on Monday May 13, these pro-Palestinian activists are determined to block the main entrance to the Pérolles 21 building until the University accedes to their demands. Their main demand is similar to that of their comrades in Lausanne and Geneva: to force the Rectorate to break off the institution's academic relations with Israeli universities.<
