Jerusalem Mayor Cancels Lecture at San Francisco State University, Citing Anti-Israel Bias
 by TheTower.org Staff | 04.06.17 11:30 am

Saying that San Francisco State University (SFSU) had contributed to “the continuing marginalization and demonization of the Jewish state,” Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat declined an invitation to speak there in a statement released Wednesday.

Barkat had given a scheduled talk at the university in April of last year, but was interrupted by anti-Israel protesters, who entered the venue and started chanting slogans, making it impossible for the mayor to continue.
