Just Ignore Them
Since my granddaughter attends the University of California, Santa Cruz, I have been following and supporting the efforts of Tammi Rossman-Benjamin, including her recent Forward op-ed on February 17 (“Why I Filed Title VI Complaint”). Lately I have come to the conclusion that the best course of action would be to ignore the whole issue. It seems that Rossman-Benjamin’s actions only give the anti-Israel and anti-Semitic lecturers free publicity. In fact, she has brought those people national attention which they didn’t have before. Nobody, would have known of their existence, if she and her organization would not have publicized it.
