I appreciate your response. It's so important to have reasoned discussions rather than name calling

"How can we take calls for maintaining “open dialogue” seriously, when your partners are actively taking part in a deliberate campaign to blow up universities and schools?"

Exactly! You say it so well, Robert. These Western universities and institutions aren't trying to keep an "open dialogue" with Israeli universities. If that were so, they'd want to keep an open dialogue with ALL universities, and I suspect that isn't the case when it comes to Russian or Palestinian universities. Western higher institutes of learning are obviously benefiting from their Israeli connections, probably through donations and favorable loans. You see it here in the US by their refusal to divest from corporations making money by creating and selling armaments to fuel the Israeli genocide of Gaza. Until we can expose and out all these hypocrites running universities worldwide, we'll be seeing more lies and manipulations to hide their ugly sense of "academic freedom."
