Rabab Abdulhadi

San Francisco State University (SFSU) professor Rabab Abdulhadi and fellow anti-Israel activists are in a panic because “the Zionists” are fighting back. At American Thinker, Campus Watch West Coast representative Cinnamon Stillwell reports on a recent SFSU conference at which there was much hand-wringing over the Middle East Forum’s campaign to end SFSU’s partnership with terror-friendly An-Najah University:

In the fevered imagination of the academic left, these are dark days at San Francisco State University (SFSU). Speakers at a two-day conference, “Rights and Wrongs: A Constitution and Citizenship Day Conference at San Francisco State University,” described a campus where a “corporatist” administration is at war with its faculty; Arab-American professors are afraid to walk alone on campus; ethnic student organizations are consigned to the dank student center basement; “Zionists” lie in wait to pounce on innocent, beleaguered proponents of “Palestine"; and “white supremacy” rules. All at one of the most radical universities in the nation.

Leading these lamentations was the director of SFSU’s Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Initiative (AMED), Rabab Abdulhadi, whose anti-Israel activism is coming back to haunt her.
