Hunter College’s announced hiring for a Palestinian studies professor led New York governor Kathy Hochul to order the listing’s removal for “hateful rhetoric” like “settler colonialism.” By that logic, Zionist Jewish texts themselves would be banned.

Khirbet Khizeh is a good example of a text that would also be banned under these rules, also by an Israeli writer.

Or just, you know, the Torah and the Bible. Both explicitly document ancient Israeli ethnic cleansing of Palestine.

Both explicitly document ancient Israeli ethnic cleansing of Palestine.

It actually documents the Yahweh cultists takeover of the hill country of southern Canaan from their original homeland in modern day Jordan. With plenty of lies thrown in. Jericho had fallen to different invaders thousands of years earlier.

The "Palestinians" of the bible were Philistinians, who were actually ethnic Greeks and came from the same culture that was depicted in the Illiad.
