NEW YORK - Columbia University announced on Monday the revision of its anti-discriminatory guidelines, introducing new policies explicitly addressing the use of terms like “Zionist” when employed to target Jews or Israelis, in an effort to combat antisemitism and provide clearer criteria regarding harassment. The 73-page document prohibits coded language and includes a detailed checklist for students filing complaints.

Columbia’s actions emulate those of other universities, such as NYU, which announced last month that anti-Zionist discrimination may violate its student conduct rules.

    The result is a mix of honest “Zionism motivates human rights abuse against Palestinians” statements, and dishonest “Zionists control the world” statements.

    Zionists don’t control the wold, but they certainly have a lot of sway in places they shouldn’t, like the US Government, and apparently multiple Public Universities community guidelines.
