UK: Palestinian Society posts link to anti-Semitic site, accuses pro-Israel group of trying to 'discredit it'


According to The Oxford Student newspaper, the controversy began with the Palestinian Society's Facebook posting of a link to jewwatch.com, a crudely anti-Semitic site. The president of the university's Israel Society, CharlesBlack, posted that he would “not allow them to stoke such an atmosphere on campus. Not on my watch. It's payback time.”

The Palestinian Society removed the post, noting, "The previous post was deleted because it was racist and anti-Semitic [...] such views are not welcome in PalSoc." It also  accused the Israel Society of seeking to "discredit" it by casting anti-Israel views as anti-Semitic.
