The British boycott of Haifa University is based on a libel.

From OpinionJournal.com:


On the eve of Passover, the British Association of University Teachers took a decision to boycott two of Israel's eight universities--Haifa and Bar Ilan--for their alleged collusion with the Israeli government in its mistreatment of the Palestinians. Haifa was also accused of curbing academic freedom. This decision is breathtaking, and it will surely feature in the annals of the European radical left and its perverse contribution to peace in the Middle East.


Why doesn't anyone care? I suppose it can be dismissed as an academic squabble, nothing more.
