Academics, Lawyers and Anti-Racist Activists in Support of NUS
President

It is good to
see that so many prominent academics and other people have signed a letter to The
Independent opposing the attack on Malia Bouattia by racist Zionists and
racist Parliamentarians, led by Chuku Ummuna and Keith Vaz.

of Consent – Modern Day Alchemy – Home Affairs Select Committee Transforms
Anti-Zionism into Anti-Semitism :
In attacking the President of NUS,
Malia Bouattia, a refugee from real oppression in Algeria, for ‘anti-Semitism’
the Committee descended into the gutter. It relied on McCarthyite guilt
by association and did not have the integrity or honesty to invite her to give
evidence. Instead it quoted the Union of Jewish Students, for whom Israel
advocacy is an integral part of its constitutional requirements, that the
statement the University of Birmingham is “something of a Zionist outpost”
is anti-Semitic. Why this is anti-Semitic is never explained.
Presumably the UJS and the Committee, in conjunction with the BNP and other
fascist organisations, agree that to be Zionist is to be Jewish. There is
no other logic. It is no more racist than describing the University
of Sussex as a radical outpost.

On the basis of the above the
Committee concludes that ‘The current President of the National Union of
Students, Malia Bouattia, does not appear to take sufficiently seriously the
issue of antisemitism on campus’ The Jewish students it refers to are
representatives or supporters of the pro-Israel UJS. Anti-Zionist Jewish
students are, of course, invisible to the Committee as are anti-Zionist Jews
generally.

| Chuku Ummuna – Black on the outside but his politics are of the White racist Establishment |
Earlier this
year at the time when the witch hunt of Malia first began I had a letter
published in The Guardian in support of Malia.
Her ‘crime’? Describing
Birmingham University as a ‘Zionist output’.
The parliamentary idiots and defamers saw that as anti-Semitic. Presumably the World Zionist Organisation and
the British Zionist Federation are also anti-Semitic by this very same
argument? ‘Zionist’ is not the same as ‘Jew’
– the only people who claim it is are either anti-Semites such as the National
Front or BNP or, of course Zionists for whom anti-Zionist Jews are ‘traitors’.

Zionist is a political term and describing Birmingham
University as a Zionist outpost is no different from describing Manchester University
as a Tory outpost or Kent University as a feminist outpost etc.

The Zionists,
who have been allowed unfortunately by the weakness of Jeremy Corbyn to traduce
anti-racists in the Labour Party as ‘anti-Semites’ have now turned their
attention to others, including it would seem Baroness Jenny Tonge and Mali
Bouttia. In targeting the first Black
woman as President of NUS, Chuku Ummuna demonstrates what a shallow, right-wing
little Uncle Tom he is.

In support of Malia Bouattia
We, the
undersigned, unequivocally support Malia Bouattia, the current NUS president
and applaud her impeccable record fighting anti-Semitism, racism and her
unwavering support for international students.

The
Home Affairs Select Committee this week released its report into
anti-Semitism. As well as gratuitously levelling attacks against twice elected
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and former director of Liberty Shami Chakrabarti,
judgment is also reserved for Ms Bouattia. It claims that she has “failed to
take sufficiently seriously the issue of anti-Semitism”.

Ms
Bouattia has fought tirelessly against all forms of racism, anti-Semitism,
sexism and homophobia. To name but a few of her many achievements and
commitments, she previously called for a review into institutional racism
(including anti-Semitism) in the NUS, spearheaded solidarity initiatives for
migrants and refugees in Calais, campaigned against the deportation of
international students, worked on interfaith projects and safe spaces for faith
students, co-led the largest opposition to the controversial PREVENT agenda;
and all alongside her constant work with student unions across the country to
dismantle racism.

The
disparity between the report’s representations of Ms Bouattia compared with her
actual record should be cause for real concern. The misuse and abuse of
anti-Semitism belittle genuine threats against the Jewish community, primarily
posed by a newly consolidated far-right in a post-Brexit landscape.
