The Zionist organization Im Tirtzu sent letters to dozens of Hebrew University donors, calling on them to not " stand idly by" while the university continues to provide legal support to Lara Alqasem.
Alqasem, former student leader of the virulently anti-Israel and pro-BDS "Students for Justice in Palestine" group, was slated to begin a master's degree at Hebrew University but was forbidden to enter the country in accordance with the 2017 law barring entry to BDS activists.
