(Jewish Group)UK CST calls Bristol Univ an 'utter disgrace' for response to complaint about lecture
(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)The Community Security Trust has called Bristol University "an utter disgrace" over its response to a complaint the CST made about a lecture linking it to the spread of Islamophobia.
The community’s defence organisation protested in March over a lecture given earlier in the year by sociology professor David Miller which claimed that parts of the Zionist movement were funding hatred of Muslims.
It also forwarded comments by two Jewish students at the university who were upset at the contents of the lecture.
The CST supplied the university with a copy of a slide it said had been used in the lecture that listed the “Zionist movement (parts of)” as one of the “five pillars” of Islamophobia.
Another slide, about the fourth pillar, listed the “[Community Security Trust]”.
