🚨Important story exposing racist Israeli ambassador @TzipiHotovely's apartheid whitewashing monologue enabled by morally bankrupt @cambridgeunion now hiding behind inaccurate statements trying to backtrack & cover-up the scale of failure their event was! https://t.co/ydZoBs9rIp

Important thread detailing profiling and interrogation of a Cambridge Union member at the Israeli ambassadors event a few days ago.

Who were the security personnel that profiled and interrogated Zeshan Qureshi?

[Lowkey @Lowkey0nline]

Dr Zeshan Qureshi details being racially profiled and interrogated by security agents external to the university, while attending the Cambridge Union event with the Israeli ambassador.

[Zeshan Qureshi @DrZeshanQureshi]

I feel really angry and utterly humiliated having been racially profiled and interrogated at the @cambridgeunion yesterday. I was attending a debate held with the UK Israeli ambassador @TzipiHotovely. 1/x

Israel’s ambassador to the UK, Tzipi Hotovely, shared a platform at a 2019 conference calling for the annexation of the occupied West Bank with a far-right politician condemned by the Board of Deputies https://t.co/3uR9JGliEI

My latest report: @cupalsoc says the @cambridgeunion was "whitewashing apartheid" by hosting notorious Israeli racist @TzipiHotovely: https://t.co/4urBTTFerv

[Asa Winstanley @AsaWinstanley]

@cambridgeunion Hi. I'm writing a story about how you hosted Israeli ambassador Tzipi Hotovely for a speech this week. Why was her event conspicuously absent from your social media? It it because you knew you'd face criticism for hosting such a notorious racist?

[Asa Winstanley @AsaWinstanley]

Breaking: @ucu and @NUSUK back students' right to chant "From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free" and denounce education minister @nadhimzahawi for suppressing political speech: "this chant is one used widely by Palestinians."

Full statement:

[Cambridge Palestine Solidarity Society (PalSoc) @cupalsoc]

We are appalled and shocked at @cambridgeunion's decision to invite Tzipi Hotovely to give a monologue on Tuesday 8th February, and legitimise her extreme racist ideology. In response, we have co-written an open letter condemning the Cambridge Union: https://t.co/uAmjmLVDuY. 1/4

[Andrew Feinstein @andrewfeinstein]

The Jewish Chronicle & the UK government, amongst others, believe they have the right to decide what slogans an oppressed people living under an apartheid occupation, should & shouldn’t use. If only they would focus on the actual brutal oppression, apartheid & illegal occupation

[Palestine Solidarity Campaign @PSCupdates]

PSC welcomes this strong statement from @nusuk & @ucu calling on @nadhimzahawi to withdraw his call for students to be reported to the police.
