A new English-language website, launched by the NGO Im Tirtzu, provides the names Israeli professors involved in the BDS movement and other activities critical of the state.
“Know the Anti-Israel Israeli Professor” lists 150 academics who accuse the Israel Defense Forces of war crimes, for example, and calls on fellow Israelis to refuse military service.
According to Im Tirtzu, among the criteria for inclusion are promotion of international pressure on Israel and membership in an organization engaged in activities deemed “anti-Israel.”
Im Tirtzu launched a similar Hebrew website in May 2019, which listed dozens of Israeli academics who teach at Israeli universities. The new website includes Israeli professors who teach abroad.
