Leftists hate Israel, because Israel is a standing rebuke to globalist internationalist borderless aspirations.
“US professor who denies Oct. 7 rape cases up for top role at campus diversity office,” by Michael Horovitz, Times of Israel, December 23, 2023:
A University of Minnesota associate professor who has denied that Hamas-led terrorists committed rape and sexual violence during their devastating onslaught on October 7 in Israel is a candidate for a senior position at the school’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) department, according to a Friday report.
Sima Shakhsari, who works at the Department of Gender, Women and Sexuality Studies, said she had not seen evidence of Israeli victims of rape and sexual violence while testifying last Thursday to the university review panel, part of the application process for the associate dean role at the office, Jewish Insider said.
“Of course, any person who has been raped — I am a rape crisis counselor, I believe the survivors. I am yet to see Israeli rape survivors of Hamas come and speak,” Shakhsari said.
The Palestinian terrorists’ widespread sexual assault during October 7 and their use of rape as a weapon of war have been widely documented amid a mounting body of evidence.
Investigators have begun building several sexual assault cases against terrorists who rampaged through communities in southern Israel on October 7, citing eyewitnesses, video evidence, testimony from captured terrorists, and photographs of victims’ bodies that all point toward systemic sexual violence.
It is believed that some female and male hostages among the 240 people taken by terrorists on October 7 and who have since been released were raped while in captivity.
Shakhsari argued during her application review that it was racist to claim the Palestinian terrorists committed the acts, comparing it to false accusations of rape against men of color in the United States.
“We know the history of lynching, of black man, lynching, of indigenous man lynching Latinos in this country… because of accusations and they’re kind of violating the innocence of white women, right? And I think that is also this force that is repeated in the context of Israel and Palestine, because Arab men have been demonized and have been marked as monstrous people who are rapists and for violence.”
Shakhsari is associated with radical pro-Palestinian groups on campus, such as Students for Justice in Palestine, and has been seen at recent protests chanting “Globalize the Intifada.” Palestinian terror attacks during the Second Intifada, two decades ago, killed an estimated 1,000 Israelis, and the chant is therefore viewed by some as a call to violence against Jews across the world….

If there were neither islam nor communism, these globalist international pipe-dreams might, just might, work
Keys says
Infidel-
These are the trinity of evil; each using the other to attain power to impose their idea of paradise; each controlled by wealthy elites; each far from personal liberty and justice for all.

Ham ass have admitted rape.Her judgement must be in question,she should be reconsidered for the job,in fact any job.
Walter Sieruk says
That left-wing professor must deliberately wearing her politically correct Red/Green alliance blinders to be in such a dishonest mental state of denial about the reality of the brutal murderous hideous nature of Islam’s horrendous jihad. Likewise, she’s also in denial about those Jihadists of Hamas who viciously engaged in that vile heinous sex assaults and outright rapes as well as other malicious and murderous Islamic terrorist jihad attack against those peaceful young people at that music festival , on October 7th., are also horrendously heinous and vile by raping girls and women and brutally cruelly hateful and wickedly mutilating them are Muslim terrorists of the most abhorrent and despicable sort.
Walter
Those Hamas jihadists are an outright abomination
WPM says
Hamas documented these violence acts ,many women were rape to death or killed after being rape many times ,newsflash dead people cannot report being raped . .I guess the new saying for woke idiots is believe all women unless they are Israeli Jewish women who are raped by jihadist. Jihadist are monsters in this terror attack there was evidence of torture to women ,men ,and children ,evidence of castration ,sexual gratification thru torture and rape .I guess from her American Midwest office because she did not “witness” it first hand these acts which where committed by “men of color” and from the religion of peace it could not have happen. The standard left wing idiocy because some black kid was accused of rape in 1922 and hung by the KKK in the American south these rapes on Oct 7 2023 in Israel that where film on the Jihadist own go-pro cameras did not happen they openly bragged about their sick actions .
James Lincoln says
I guess she figures if she actually tells the truth, she will lose out on that “senior position at the school’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) department”…
Pray Hard says
DEI is destroying America.
Pray Hard says
Her denial is irrelevant as is she.
Siddi Nasrani says
I have a feeling that money is been thrown at the University of Minnesota by Islamic institutions abroad.
He who pays the piper calls the tune, comes to mind.

Well stated.
Like feeding the jukebox…

Send professor Sima Shakhsar on a one way sabbatical to the West Bank! Be sure to give her a rainbow LGBTQI Kate Spade tote bag. Place an Apple tracker in the bag to see if she hides out in her room. She wouldn’t last a minute looking all butch masculine with her hair uncovered. Totally clueless and ignorant about Islam and the unholy Quran.
Keith O says
A couple of things shocked me about this.
1. Sima Shakhsari is a woman, she/it looks like a bloke in the picture and
2.For a woman who looks like a rampant lesbian to be promoting Islam tells one hell of a lot about her IQ levels and her understanding of how tolerant Islam is of lesbians and homosexuals.
This whole situation goes a long way to demonstrating the influence of money on the policies of universities.
Jim says
I started studying at the U of M in Minneapolis, and then I thought it was a great and proud university. Now I would not want to send children there. They should close all the studies programs and fire the teachers. They are just ideological propaganda and indoctrination centers and not places of serious scientific study. I am ashamed of having a BA from the U of M because of people like this with their ideological perversity.
Rufolino says
Talk sense to an idiot and she will call you a fool.
Lyone Fein says
I would have thought that the Midwest was a last bastion of sense in the United States. It is so depressing to read about nonsense like this. Even though I am aware that this sort of thing has been going on for 20 years or so. Each time sickens me.
WPM says
The mass importation of Moslems into rust belt cities in the Midwest under the Obama administration has been great. Dearborn ,Detroit ,Flint ,are Moslem strong holds with Moslems voting in a block. Moslems from the Middle East ,Africa ,and Eastern Europe ,former Soviet Union States, filing cities that have de-industrial and hallow out in the late 20th century cities . Ohio ,Michigan , Minnesota , Indiana , have seen massive Moslem imported to fill welfare rolls ,organized white and blue collar crime ,fill voting rolls. They come for the bennies stay for Jihad ,like western Europe ,Canada ,and many other places they suck them dry extort or buy off local elected leaders and use useful idiots like this “professor” to further their cause.
Huapakechi says
This is only one more argument for refusing donations to the university of minnesota.
James Lincoln says
Somehow, Sima Shakhsari missed the “me too” movement.
Lisa T. says
How does she explain the fact that Germany had a huge jump in rapes after they welcomed Syrian refugees. And how does she explain Allah’s permissiveness with sex slaves and captives of the right hand. In other words…if you can catch it, you can rape it.

…………………………………..
Never mind that Hamas *itself* had been bragging about raping their victims.
Sima Shakhsari pretending that this is falsely accusing innocent Arabs is just grotesque. And now she will, no doubtl act to bring mor of this horror here to the United States.
And no mention that Sima Shakhsari is almost certainly Iranian–and hence likely using Taqiyya herself. This is not just clueless leftism.
